I do realize the scangauge will only only give me primitive readings. I want it mainly for the more "raw" data forms. I will be using gauges like ignition timing, GPM, and the custom O2 sensor readings. I will not be trusting the MPH numbers.

This way you wont have warning lights and other things to contend with when messing with the O2 and MAP sensors. Your car will just think it is being driven at higher altitude.
I will look into that. Thanks.
