    I run an UltraGauge (http://www.ultra-gauge.com/ultragauge/), since my old ScanGauge was stolen, and the UltraGauge was half the cost. Even though Linear Logic is an awesome company that stands behind their products, I've actually grown more fond of the UltraGauge. Clearer display, can show up to 8 gauges at once, and it's more modern design blends in better with the dash. It doesn't look like it came from the 90s.

    I did notice a difference in how it felt. It doesn't rev up as high when you first start it, and it settles down sooner. I wouldn't really say it feels smoother, but there is a noticeable change even without instrumentation to see the difference. Does it make a difference in average MPGs? Negligible at best.

    I would be much easier to show you the scangauge sometime than to talk you thru it here.
    I could recommend go search YouTube for Scangauge2 and see there what it does

    I have set it to show Volt, Speed in km/h (it's more accurate than the Org speedometer), LPH and the water temperature.

    The GPH and or LPH will always change depending on how fast you go and or if the engine is warm vs. Cold.. (just like someone said in the thread)

    If you have Android get Elm327 reader (paid <$5 for BT on eBay) and Torque Pro app. App is $5 and there is a free version too. Any signal reported on obd2 can be viewed, measured and plotted.

    so any OBD tool that fits the mirage and has bluetooth will work with Torque app?

    I'm curious if you've modified your car like they exhaust in my case would the remapping of the ecu not have the desired effect?

    Yes. They also support WiFi.

    BT works fine but may be a pain to pair up initially. Adapters don't have memory so pairing info is not saved when you unplug it, while your phone may think it is. I had to clear BT a couple times and set adapter in Torque settings, so it works fine now good luck.

    Possible but I don't see how. Remap suppose to reduce amount of fuel on cold start. They only change AFI and perhaps RPMs and duration while engine is warming up and running in open loop mode.

    Was it just a remap of the cold start maps, or throughout? Any noticeable changes when the car is warm?
