I'm getting one as well. It seems every damn car in the modified/pro classes have one.

I do have experience with PCS support and they are beyond excellent. Russ was always at the track and all the events when Reactive Racing ran their car.

Everytime I have called there for help, someone always picked up.

I tuned Turbodano's old Supra. It had one. It was a nice unit. Easy to use

russ is a good guy, great to deal with.

the dash is great for the money, leaves a lot to be desired compared to some of the more expensives units out there....but thats ALWAYS the case.

i have a used, perfect condition unit for sale

Ran the D200 in both cobalts worked flawless installing one in a 67 camaro. Going to use the boost option with it. Great deal especially now with the sportmans package offered...Easy to use and very configureable......

Tim, I'm currently running the PCS dash logger and for money you can't go wrong. Although there are better system's out there if you are willing to spend the money. Pro's about this unit is that it's priced right, sensors are affordable, service is , can-bus allows you to communicate with quit a few EMS's. On the other hand the screen is not the greatest to view, it's limited to what can be displayed (not that you need to see it during the run)

I'd get one, unless you plan on getting a Racepak V300sd, Motec or AIM.

na saw the racepack at PRI & they obviously like their product to much thats for race teams or someone that is getting sponsors. its a nice setup but i will never pay 400$ for 1 sensor,lol

your exactly right when your going down the track u wont be looking at it unless your road racing maybe. so for drag its no issue.

figure between it & a AEM i will have more than enough data logging capabilities.
its a no brainer now that i see the light, lol
just need to figure out what exactly i want to do with it so i can get what i need. see what i want each unit to do.

thanks for all the info.

where did you see $400 for one sensor, thats crazy. i have a v300 in my car every sensor is $250 and its all can-bus, and after running aem last year with the v300 and comparing the data logs, aem blows in comparison, i dont know bout there series 2 boxes though

might not of been 400 but dame close enough. seeing some of the other companys at PRI & what sensors they had opened my eyes to other options.

I need to look into the new aem 2 as well, might as well start fresh.
see what it does so i know what i need to get from PCS

The PCS system allows you to scale your own sensors if you want to. It also has nice user interface software.
