Ok, I found some online so I figured I'd start a thread. Post whatever you find!

The OBDII I am refering to(Do Not Get) is the orange one you would find at autozone or pepboys.... If you already got it and can't return it(pissed) then you can either sell it or hold on to it for the other vehicles you own....


Thanx GW hope I made that announcement before anyone else makes that mistake and waste money that could have went twards springs or something that worked on the car...

I need to get in contact with the makers of Carchip again.

Earlier this year they were still working on CAN support - it was supposed to be done by now. I still haven't started an active search because I'd like to hear back from Carchip before I continue - theirs is a PCM datalogger as opposed to some diags that are real-time, and I think most people generally prefer the real-time (better for more accurate tuning).

I'd prefer one just to keep track of information though, and the carchip stores 75hrs of info and can be used on a desktop PC.

I'll let you guys know when I hear from them.

Was looking for something that would also work with pocket pc. Would this?

Our cars aren't OBD-II compliant - You'd need to talk to them about adding the CAN expansion for it (they list it as a $60 add-on). Then I think you're a Go!

Response from Davis on Carchip's CAN compatibility:


"sorry, no news yet on the Can Protocol for the CarChip. We have not been
given any tentative date at this time."
