    The data speeds are on par with Vag-Com, so pretty handy, but as I cant look at blocks like in Vag-Com, i cant really compare / see all I want.

    Still, for $15, cool toy to have in the car and if something ever comes up, I should be able to see / clear the code on the spot (yet to throw a code to prove clearing them works).
    Yes, for the info from the measuring blocks the Autopolar Fis Advanced is a much better option.
    I have Torque Pro and have tried to read the overboost code that I detected with the VCDS and the Torque Pro didn't see the fault there.

    Auto polar cut and paste from another forum. Not sure if Polo is supported.
    Complete list of models supported are as follows:

    - Volkswagen Golf5
    - Volkswagen Golf6
    - Volkswagen Jetta
    - Volkswagen Caddy
    - Volkswagen Tiguan
    - Volkswagen Touran
    - Volkswagen EOS
    - Volkswagen Passat
    - Volkswagen Scirocco
    - Volkswagen Sharan
    - Volkswagen Touran
    - Volkswagen Tiguan

    - Skoda Roomster
    - Seat Toledo 2012 (new)
    - Seat Alhambra
    - Seat Leon
    - Seat Altea

    Sorry to Polo owners due to hardware simplification it appears there's no connector for your Autopolar to plug into at this stage.

    It's actually a TorqPro Add-In that reports boost PSI - the "Track Recorder" Add-In
    When you record video, the data is saved as a video sub title, the boost is reported in PSI
    2012.1 Skoda Octavia VRS DSG Wagon - Carbonio cold air intake and pipe - HPA Motorsports BBK 355mm rotors 6 pot calipers
    APR Stage II ECU - APR 3" exhaust down pipe & high flow catalyst
    APR/HP Roll bars - Eibach springs and Bilstien shocks
    Supaloy lower control arms - Enkei 18*8 Wheels

    The OBD data is also handy if doing track days and using a GPS laptimer off your phone as it'll overlay telemetry with video. I'm only familiar with the apple laptimers and the OBD hardware is much more than $15

    i just jumped on the cheap ebay wifi adaptor and torque pro bandwagon
    i gotta say its a fun little app and can monitor lots of little things.
    not good tho when you almost rear end someone cause ur not lookn at the road.

    so regarding PSI for turbo boost, what would be a normal level of boost for a stock chip stock turbo GTI?
