you don't have to spend so much money on a interceptor.I bought a ELM327 OBD2 blue tooth reader and use the APP Torque.$15 on the ELM327 and $5 for torque and then a couple bucks on a cell phone mount.It shows every PID.I have mine on IAT1,Timing advance,and Knock Retard.It also reads codes,erase codes,data logs,shows monitor status,all sorts of cool things.I love it.

oh yeah both windows were down lol
Nice man!!!
yeah it's pretty cool.It also estimates HP and torque from all the information it reads plus weight.Does 0-60,1/4 mile time,g's,whole bunch of stuff.it's fun.It's how I figured out I needed a new throttle body other than it throwing codes everyday.I pulled up throttle pedal % and actual throttle actuater % and saw they were off.Def. very helpful

I'm really in the mood to get an AEM cai, but they only make them for a 2.0L SS engine. Will it fit or am I better off going Injen and stop being such a loser trying to match all the colours in my car?

this weekend i replaced my oil, fixed my vacuum issue, and also fixed my return line from turbo. unfortunately my weird valvetrain noise is still there, which means i may have just spent $200 on an oil pump i really didnt need... anyways, i think my next attempt at fixing the problem is lash adjusters.
anyone know specific details on how lash adjusters specifically work before i go gungho on my valve train?
