any thoughts about Kiwi MPG?

I am considering getting the kiwi mpg since it is only $90 vs. SG2 $150.

I know kiwi mpg does not have as many features and only shows one measurement at a time, but it is worth the savings?

Is it just as accurate? There are not many reviews out there...

I'd suggest you splurge and get the scangauge. You'll want the additional features.

Also, the group buy on the SGII on this forum is $140 shipped, I believe.

Welcome to EM! Do a thread title search here on "Kiwi" and you will see that there are mixed reviews. I thought it would be affordably neat, but it doesn't seem to be able to "calibrate" for others.
