you wont get a scan tool for $100, they cost more in the range of $1500-$10,000. what you are after is a generic code reader, any parts store should have one.

ill get back to you, what kind of scanner do you want? just want to know the codes? or you want a definition of the code aswell? like one can tell u the code, and u can check it online, th other shows a smll description of what tripped the code, like random misifr, or bank1 sensor 1 etc

100 dollars...

this is just like HPtuners logger or a scan gauge, except u hook it to the computer to read the logs after you do your runs.

Keep in mind it only logs 4 perimeters at once, but that should be good if you choose the right ones.
