It sucks. With the built-in antenna it can take 30mins to find a satellite. To use the Navi feature you need an external antenna for sure, but even then it fails to measure up to a dedicated unit like the Garmin, etc. If you use navigation a lot I'd recommend getting a standalone unit and only get the Evoscan unit if you want to use Evoscan.

On the evoscan.org site it says that you choose the GPS software & maps, so couldn't you use the garmin option for better quality navi functioning?

I've had 2 standalone gps systems by tomtom and they both royally sucked and crapped out within months. I'm in it for the evoscan function, but the navi is big boost in appeal... Guess we all should wait a while for it to be developed a bit more? Wish someone in the US would come out with something like this.

Ouch!

I was looking to pick one of these up for data logging purposes. Have you tried to contact evoscan (designers/support)?

Mine originally came with iGO navi software but I changed mine to Garmin since it's the only one with maps of Japan. It may depend on your location but my GPS picks up pretty quickly.

Yousef, do you currently use Evoscan on a laptop? If so, what do you select for the vehicle type? JDM 2009? I need to know because more than likely I'll be the one making your gauge template. It wont be fancy, it'll be like the one I posted in this thread.

Also do you use PSI or kpa for boost? And celcius for temp?

Okay, make sure it has mode23 enabled or else you wont be able to log with Evoscan.
