obdII scanners

[stainless]

Looking to get an OBDII scanner. would be tempted by engine management but I have a NA engine so other than fuel efficiency don't see much point.

If I could get a inexpensive link/software for my MAC that would be nice. I would not want to spend >100 ish. any one have any sugestions or should I just get a pocket obdii scanner for<50$

I did a search for OBDII and only got 1 hit on the forum related to turbo tunning.

Any one use MOVI?

What are u looking to do with the scanner? Just monitor I/m monitors or just check codes? You can a simple pocket obd2 scanner for cheap if that's all you want it for.

Got a smartphone? Here's what I did.

Android: https://market.android.com/details?id=org.prowl.torque

iOS (note I have no experience, tread here at your own risk): http://devtoaster.com/products/rev/index.html

And OBD2 reader (pick one from the US): http://shop.ebay.com/?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1311&_nkw=obd2+bluetooth&_sacat=See-All-Categories

For 30ish dollars, I can pull codes with my phone.

Seeing sensor readouts is kind of a novelty on an NA car IMO. I just have my setup to pull CELs.

Yeah, I fig'ed that in a NA there is not to much I could "tweek other than maybe geting a nother 1-2mpg on highway cruising...

I will proboly get a obdii standalone scaner since I have a mac laptop but no smart phone my phone is milspec but not smart....
