Best OBDII tool
 
What's the best OBDII tool for our cars?

I was looking at "rev" app for iPhone with the "kiwi wifi" by plx devices
Kiwi Wifi - PLX Devices Inc - USA

Before I order thise, is there a better way to go ?

Coming from audio I know for something like this you would buy "vag-com".

I own one of the $30 generic OBDII devices, and a friend of mine has the kiwi one. I have tried them both with Torque on my phone and the kiwi one is far better. It reads faster and gave more accurate data. The generic one works for some values like rpm, but it would always show my AFR at like 16 no matter what. If I could do it again I'd pony up the loot for the kiwi one.

The reason the kiwi is faster is because it is using WiFi. This is always faster (and more expensive) than Bluetooth. Though there are some generic WiFi dingles like the Bluetooth on eBay too for about $50.
