I stumbled upon this (http://www.dashhawk.com/) today. Initial impression from the web site suggests it could be superior to ScanGauge (albeit at a price) in several ways:

Many more engine parameters available
Customizable displays
Data logging (yeah!!!)
Companion PC software with USB interface

Anyone ever heard of it?

I'm going to download the user manual later this evening when I get home, but I wanted to get this posted now.

Hi Jim:

___I had a quick read over the specs and there sure are a lot of handy readouts that would be a welcome addition. It appears that an i and aFCD are not calc’ed for display however :( This device supports only those with a CAN-Bus compliant BUS. That knocks out most older Honda’s some of us own ;)

___Good Luck

Honda, Saturn, whatever .... If Larry can overcome it, you can too.:)

Turns out data logging capacity is rather limited. Depending on whether you believe the site's FAQ page or the user guide, you get 3-5 minutes (the former) or 90 seconds (the latter).

For the money I would stick with my trusty SG-1. It does everything just fine, and the SG-2 takes care of the cosmetic issues.
