Best Scan Tool?

[FreeJack]

I need a scan tool!

Which is the best scan tool. Turbo Link? or Scanmaster?

Thanks!

I like Direct Scan, and the main reason is the update speed. DS updates at 18 frames per second. Turbolink and Scanmaster update at 1 frame per 1.5 seconds. You can actually have the scanmasters update rate doubled. The chip burner has to insert a code in the chip. The only chip burner that I know of that wont do it is Red Armstrong.

All in all, I think the Scanmaster is the most useful scan tool, because you don't need a laptop riding shotgun, and you can actually see the display data while driving. I have both DS and SM and the scan master is always on, and always in my face.

Thanks! I really like the new Turbo-Link 3.0 windows version but I willhave to wait (not released yet).

I will probably go with the ScanMaster.

Now... Where can I get ScanMaster? I understand there is a 2.0 and a 2.1? I would like to get the lastest.

Thanks!

Check www.gnttype.org They have a very good write up. I use Scanmaster on my daily driver. If I had a race only TR, I would use Direct Scan.
