Pocketlogger is a really good datalogger. PocketLogger

I just bought a Scanmaster 3 and waiting for it to come in the mail. Looks really good. ScanMaster

You should search first. It has been covered many times.

Check out this thread. I've compiled a list of all of the loggers there for a tech article that I'll be writing.

I use a palm m100 with software from ditial tunning. You can pick a used palm m100 for like $30 and the I believe the software is either 125 or 150.

I would have to go with DSMLink. You have a 95 which should have an EEPROM ecu, you have what a lot of 96-99 owners crave to have so they can run DSMLink.

Unlike the normal loggers out there that do 1 frame per sec, this has real time data and a lot more data you can pull, one notable would be knock. And you can adjust timing, a/f, and a bunch of other stuff.

As for the best and easiest to use, I would also have to vote for DSMLink. All you should need is DSMLink (installed on your '95 ECU) and a laptop, and you would be in business. And DSMLink does much more than simply datalogging - it lets you do something with this data, such as making fuel and timing adjustments. If you ever decide to upgrade your injectors, it will make this process painless. As stated by RedTurboEclipse, one logging feature that separates it from most other loggers is its ability to log knock. You can even set up DSMLink to flash your CEL if knock is detected above a threshold that you pre-define. DSMLink also allows you to retrieve engine fault codes, more easily check your base idle speed and timing, eliminate fuel-cut, and many other features.

Do ALL 95's have the correct EPROM for DMS link? If not, how do you know if you have one that is compatible?

I also vote for DSMLink.

No, not every single '95 ECU has the EPROM but most of them do. Here's a site that'll help you check your ECU.

You can look for the "E" on the sticker on the outside of the ECU or open it up and look for the extra chip on the inside.

Also (in case you need it), here's a link to help you remove your ECU.

He asked for a logger. So in that category I would recommend pocketlogger if you have the money. If not, just buy the OBDII cable and download palm'n'stein.

If you are interested in a tuning program, then by all means, go with dsmlink.

Cheapest and easiest to use get a cheap palm and download OBD gauge the software is free. You will have to buy an interface to plug the palm into the car though. You can but the interface at multiplex-engineering.com
