Your Temp guage starts moving at 125 Degrees, Hits the first mark at 135 Degrees, then second at 170 Degrees, and then the middle ~ 190 Degrees...

My CAI air temperature started at 41 Degrees when I started the car and by the time it was warmed up, it was 48 Degrees, with the car sitting in the garage... (I'll have to guage this as I drive, to see how much the engine heat effects the air intake temperature).

Fun to play with though.

you got the Apexi I-Moni or something similar? I was thinking into getting something like that. How you liking it?

Nope, a cool lil' software package from obddiagnostics.com it's serial, so it doesn't refresh as much as I'd like... I'm looking into autotap for a better solution... as it's usb.

It'll all run through my CarPC.

I have the autotap.... neat tool with customizeable gauges that you can place and save to a profile. BUT the software writers must have learned how to code as they went! It is very glitchy. Poor error trapping and handling, and sometimes on-screen gauges will not work at all for minutes at a time. Once you get it figured out and get used to doing things in certain order to prevent it from freaking out, causing you to have to end it in task manager, it is pretty useful. Does all generic data, which is enough to do most troubleshooting. One of the most annoying glitches is how it randomly decides you have not registered the hardware with it.. causing you to have to enter the serial number again. I am to the point of calling them and giving them the choice to fix thier crappy VB code, send me an update, give me my money back, or pay me to fix their damn code!!!!!

^ That's depressing, as mine is a little slow on refresh, so I was looking at autotap....

Grr....

There is another option, but the cable for it is pretty expensive.... OBD-2.com

It's a basic program, but the sample log file and customization options are pretty nifty as I've seen so far playing with it.

^^ I like the features and log file for the autotap... I just hope they update and fix the software. It is purely a poorly written program (exhibited by unhandled errors) or a poorly tested one. I have gotten it figured out to the point that it works pretty good for me. I still plan on contacting them to see if a new version is out though. I will keep you updated if I find one.
