Look at your dashboard. What do you see? Usually, car makers can only manage to inform us about these things: speed, fuel, odometer and engine temperature. If you want to know more about your engine, you still have to install some other features. But that could be a hassle too.
Luckily, the Car Chip Pro provides us with an easy way to get more information regarding how our engine works. There are not tools or automotive expertise needed. All you have to do is plug the Car Chip Pro into the OBDII port (easily found under the dashboard or steering wheel), and it will be able to read and store data from your car’s computer. It will give you a detailed overview of your driving and engine performance.
The features of the Car Chip Pro are as follows:
· Easy installation: plug in under the dash, drive your vehicle, then download the data to your PC
· Up to 300 hours of trip details (newest data records over oldest)
· Complete trip details including time/date, distance traveled, speed (1- or 5-second intervals)
· Log up to 4 of 23 engine parameters
· Provides individual graphs and summary reports
· Records/shows extreme acceleration/braking
· Allows user-set thresholds for audible alarms, speed, acceleration, and braking (post-drive reports/graphs show when, for how long, and number of times thresholds were exceeded)
· Automatic accident log with last 20 seconds speed data before impact
· Assign trips as business/commute/personal
· Calculate gas mileage
· View/Reset engine diagnostic trouble codes (check-engine light)
· Test for preliminary emissions status
· Software (included) lets you review/clear diagnostic codes, view summaries/detail reports, and copy data to spreadsheets for further analysis
· Includes: Car Chip Pro data logger, Software CD, USB cable
· Software works with: Windows 98SE, ME, NT4.0, NT2000, XP, Vista

Read the instructions carefully before installing this device, or you might jeopardize the features of the Car Chip Pro. You can read the data that will be sent to the device through your computer by plugging the device through a USB port. Easy, right? This will cost you $99.99.
