Good way to set performance baseline for your cazr, January 19, 2007

By	Research Scientist "A guy who likes data"(Mid-Michigan) - See all my reviews

This product allows you to capture data from the ODBC II port on most newer vehicles. I found it easy to use and I'm the kind of person who will log data from all my cars and keep it for future reference. When the car isn't running right, I'll use the old data for diagnosis. My only complaint is that the CarChip only logs 4 signals in addition to vehicle speed and only a small set of the available signals. I'd rather it log more signals at once. For that, I'd be happy to trade off how long it can log data for more signals. For example, with a Chevy V8 engine, you cannot log the fuel trim for both cylinder banks and all 4 O2 sensor signals at the same time.
