Have u guys got Scangauge II yet? its good, reads coolant temps, intake manifold temps, volt, engine load, etc from the OBD port.
I went to their website and I am very intrigued by this product, as I have been looking for some sort of gauge package for my 545. It looks pretty simple. Do you just plug it in when you want to use it, or do you have it mounted somewhere? any pictures of how you mounted it and where you ran the cable? thanks,

Where are you located and where are the video/sound clips?
I'd guess he's located in Malaysia or Singapore [based on license plate design, background and the reference to "cooler temps" - I know a lot of people back home there who are constantly on about getting lower temp air into their turbo/super chargers]

considering higher engine capacity duty jumps to 560% from 180% I think this 10 grand will be a great value for me but how would I re programme the DME for increased fuel supply etc ?

Sorry, but I compare the acceleration in your video side by side (split screen) with a stock 530i video and can't see any difference

Also, seems like the stock 530i is a little faster (0-120Km)
