I was shopping on amazon for a car dock for my Epic 4g, awesome phone :D. I came across a cheap looking ODB2 bluetooth http://www.amazon.com/BLUETOOTH-DIAGNOSTIC-SCANNER-VAG-COM-SCANTOOL/dp/B003MQ89X4/ref=sr_1_3?ie=UTF8&s=automotive&qid=1294070281&sr=8-3. Anyway I found an app on the android market call Torque that gives you real time engine info but they suggest the ScanTool or PLX Kiwi dongle. Before I go spending $100 on this has any one tried any of these devices?

Thanx for not banning me :D, I'm going to wait till the end of the month to get this along with the WAMS tune. I opted to get the Racingline Motor Mounts Street ver. I just want to see my current stats on the car and see the difference after the tune.

Well I changed my mind since I have the cash for the dongle I purchased the PLX Kiwi bluetooth adapter. I'll post feed back as soon as I get it.

Also notice on the side bar where the ads are... There is an ad for the OT-2 it is apple and android powered.

Just got my PLX Kiwi bluetooth adapter and tried it out with Torque. Awesome! I tried it on my work van (Chevy Astro Van) and on the G6. It has a lot of info and a nice integration with google maps when you export your logs. This is the developers page http://torque-bhp.com/ .
