Scanner - Do we have one for the Ecoboost?

[13-SHO]

Let me start by stating I was spoiled with my GP GTP. I bought a tuner and used a seperate scanner that ran on a palm pilot. I could pick from over 200 PID's to scan and log. I then could export the file to an Excel spreadsheet and compare the differences. It was very helpful 

I have Torque on an old Android phone but it just doesn't give me what I want. Is there another scanner available?

[ecoboostsho]

I use Torque but it doesn't have a few parameters (like knock) which I am sure you scanned if you had a GTP. (Had an 04 myself modified) I was able to figure out how to read knock sort with Torque on the Taurus. I would love trans and/or oil temp.

There is something at the site forscan.org which I haven't played with yet but looks promising. If they have the extended Ford PIDs past 09 and they make an iPhone app I will be checking it out for sure.

FORScan works really well if you don't mind pluging into a laptop. It's able to access a ton of PID's. and it's free!

[ecoboostsho]

Does forscan read knock by chance?

[ShoBoat]

Yes it does!

[ecoboostsho]

Awesome! Thanks...will definitely check it out. I meant Android app above not iPhone. Good grief.

[13-SHO]

Thanks for the info. I will check it out.

Add me to the Grand Prix GTP club.  Have a powertuner and an aeroforce scan gauge.  Would like to see what the Lund tuner is going to include for my sport...

Your torque doesn't read knock? Mine does. But I'm running torque pro.

I've got pro as well. Almost positive it wouldn't. Maybe Ian added it and I missed it? Will have to check now!

There's a "knock detector" symbol right next to the map view symbol.

Can you attach a screen shot? I don't see that on mine and I have pro.

google image for knock in Torque

should be there, it's the little bullseye looking thing....for what ever reason mine does not work while driving ---says I'm not at 100% throttle when it is floored.

I'm curious guys.  Will a tuned SHO waste a tuned GTP? 

[ecoboostsho]

Ahh the knock detector plug in. Yes I've seen it. Couldnt calibrate it because you can't go full throttle in park? How did you get past that? I am really after the PID for knock and this Torque plugin uses a method that tries to measure it indirectly. I get how it works in theory but am not sure how accurate it would be? I do actually have a PID that I believe is knock but I don't have scaling or equation for it. I use it but am not 100% sure it works either.
