I'm essentially using mine as:

- More accurate speedometer
- Air intake measurements
- A bunch of other measurements that the OB-Link pushes out

The HKS OB-Link package was more expensive but I like the quality of the sensor and the format of Carscope to Torque.
Hey @Zangetsu can you tell me if the HKS OB-link gives you real time oil temp please? Their website and info says it does but nothing like getting confirmation from someone tht has it actually hooked up to an 86.
