Got a Scangauge II (thanks Wooders) and started setting it up. So far got engine temp, the transmission temp and boost gauge working which are the main 3 things I wanted to keep an eye on. I've had it go into limp mode on me twice due to getting too hot (both times on the same stretch of Thunderbolts Way going up to Armidale) so want to see what the engine and transmission temps are getting to and someone mentioned that removing the rear muffler could possibly lead to over boosting so thought I should keep an eye on that. Does anyone know what I should expect as normal/acceptable/worrying readings for the engine temp, transmission temp and boost pressure? I haven't driven any further than the end of the street yet so no idea what mine's running at.

Now just got to play with it and see what else it can do. Was a fair bit smaller than I was expecting as well. Fits nice and discretely on top of the dash.

Install an endless air system to my Jk Rubicon 3.8 litre.
Works awesome and runs of the main serpentine belt.

The door supports, I was looking at are called Smart Door from Starfabricating in the States. I was told that they are releasing an updated version in a few weeks. Not sure what that entails...

You mean the same smart door stays from Star Fabricating that DBOR sells

Very good would be my opinion. Havent fitted a set yet but are on my todo list. Would be interested to know that the new revision does differently.
