So I am looking at getting one of these but don't know which one to go with I am leaning towards Ultra gauge cause of the price. Has anybody used either of them and can recommend one, or if one is better that the other?

I have scan gauge it's pretty handy. I use it for temps, voltage, gas milage info and obviously reading any codes. it's handy, I like it

I went thru so many different kinds of forums (Clean MPG,Ih8Mud,and Pontiac G8's) and got not kind of definitive answer. So I think I'll buy w/ the wallet in mind go for the ultra.

I bought a bluetooth obd2 adapter on ebay for like 15$. I use my android phone to monitor the engine, and clear codes with a free app called torque.

No I got to them from a Google search No But I did have a '00 Camaro SS. I think newer GTO's is awesome looking. I want to get a newer F-body but one gas guzzler is enough for me.

Went with the ultra gauge for now was going to get the app for my phone then I realized my phone barely does it job now so I don't trust it to be a reliable with the importance of monitoring my truck. thanks for the feedback guys.

I have a buddy down in Miami who has a 06 GTO thats supercharged. He's doing the Holden Monaro conversion the thing is sick. We would go out street racing on the old abandoned highways that were used in the 70's-80's to land planes and bring coke in the the us. It was like some fast and furious shit..

I only have one shitty cell phone pic, doesnt do this car justice
