Hey, at least it has a color screen. I used to have one of the original Aeroforce Interceptor scan gauges in a couple cars, only comes in a pre-selected color, the resolution is probably 100x100, and when the interior is cold, the display updates slow as fu--.

But hey, it could read and clear MIL lights and codes LOL.
yeah but unfortunately because of the display, the only readable one is white

Have you used SCT to tune? Maybe not applicable to EB, but the GT cars, SCT is painful as shit to flash tunes.

Every tune requires flash to stock before flashing new tune....30+ minute flashes. What I always wanted. I'm OK with the nGauge as a datalogger. Going too fast to look at the gauge for it to be useful otherwise.

Huh? My initial tune takes about 15 minutes.

I know Adam at Tune+ is working on getting into the GT market, and I know he's a huge fan of the AP, so I can't imagine he'll use anything else for it. Just need Cobb to get the ball rolling.

If you wrap the ngauge with some rubber tape you can wedge it in the vent so it angles towards the driver and cuts down on the glare. Also you can adjust the brightness.

Ordered my nguage the other day. I'll see how I like it. Glad to see everyone's input so far dosnt make me feel I made a bad decision. I don't mind losing one air vent.

I personally did that, was a decent stop gap

If Cobb comes out with an AP for the 5.0, I'm in. Otherwise I'm leaving my motor alone. I came from the Subaru world too, and the AP is great.

Isnt the NGuage one of the better looking solutions, some of the other tuner mini computers look like something from the 90's

I don't see a Cobb AP coming out for the NA Mustang ever.

I kept hearing people talk about the N-Gauge so one day I decided to look it up and see what the hype was all about. After looking at it, I seriously have no idea what all the hype is about. And I'm certainly not sure what makes it worth the price they ask for it.

I don't think the guage itself is even that expensive for all that it does. Everything seems expensive these days because the value of dollar keeps dropping.
