Hey all. I've been hearing a lot about the ScanGaugeII for my H1. It connects up to the OBII port in your ride and it tells you all kinds of cool things. Different gauges and a ton of programed gauges. http://www.scangauge.com/ Super easy to use and program. Looks like all kinds of gas or diesel vehicles 1996 and above. It's $160 but the best money I spent so far.
I started asking around about my turbo and if it was operating correctly. I couldn't tell if it worked at all! Through all conditions of driving, I couldn't hear a whine of any kind or if I was getting any kick when coming off the line or passing. Pretty much nothing at all. Now before I get everyone telling me "It's a 8,000 LB truck that has about 190 HP and geared down for off roading. It's not a race car! Don't expect it to be one!" I kinda figured that but I would think that I would hear a whine. Somewhat quiet whine because of the noisy inside, but something. When passing someone, I thought I'd feel a small amount of "extra" acceleration. Nothing any different than any other time. One guy told me about the ScanGaugeII because it can be programmed to show turbo Boost or Manifold Pressure. I just got it, so all I've played with has been MPG, Different Temps, RPM, Volts, Yada, Yada.
If anyone can give me some input to my lack of Turbo or not Turbo problem, please feel free to chime in.
