Super mid

I sure would to know more about the super mid and will it work on my swift?
Does anyone know how it works and were to get it?

A ScanGauge will work in your car, if it's OBD2 (don't know where you live). All models sold in North America have been OBD2 since 1996 model year.

Wait... you mean you want to know your pulse width, and that's why you're interested in the MID vs the SG?

I've gotten so I do most of my driving with reference to the pulse widths rather than the km/l. Since I know what the pulse widths are from idle to 2000rpm, the pulse width lets me know when the ICE switches over from propelling to engine braking the car, which results from only a very minute change in the accellerator pedal's position, especially when driving at lower speeds. This is where the hand throttle come in handy.
