While I like em dirty, they sure do look good clean! Taking the old lady on a date tonight, gives me an excuse to drive the younger lady :)

I just couldn't get comfortable with the car not having a spare so I bought one on ebay. I didn't care about visual condition or curb rash as long as I had one for emergency. To my surprise this wheel not only can't be told from brand new, it also came with the cap and sensor.

I bought my non-PP, stock tuned 2015 SHO back in May, so last night was my first real chance to drive it in a Colorado snowstorm. We were on I-25 south of Ft Collins headed back to Denver at about 8:00pm. Temp was <10 degrees and dropping with no visibility and all lane markings were already covered by a couple inches of snow pack.

I have to report that, while not very glamorous duty, she performed admirably. It felt like I was driving a tank through the snow - no sliding, slipping, or spinning. The only small concern was when the low tire pressure light chimed on. They were just super-cold and didn't have any way to warm up. I still have the original stock Michelin's.

Now, I just need some warmer weather to get her cleaned up again... :)

All seasons do need time to warm up in the winter and perform properly. Tire pressures also drop substantially in low low temps, so it's good to check them and correct as needed prior to driving off.

I made it half way up the side of a winding mountain with unplowed snow 4inches deep...In the Michelin's All Seasons... I slid back down backwards.. but I was damn impressed with how the tank handeled. Now with my Sport Comps I got stuck getting out of my driveway in 3inches of snow lol..

What software are you using, first of all? Torque Pro or Forscan Lite? You should get 4 sensor readings off of either one, but you need to pick the right O2 (air/fuel) sensors also. Torque Pro has PIDs for wideband sensors (front O2s) so use Bank 1 Sensor 1 and Bank 2 Sensor 1 for those. Try O2 Sensor1 wide-range voltage and O2 Sensor 2 wide-range voltage see what you get. If those do not work, try O2 Volts Bank 1 Sensor 1 and O2 Volts Bank 2 Sensor 1. For the rear O2s (regular narrowband), use the regular O2 Volts Bank 1 Sensor 2 and O2 Volts Bank 2 Sensor 2 PIDs (further down the list of PIDs).

As far as boost, it's supposed to vary depending upon load/throttle conditions, but I'd not worry about that just yet.

Question concerning Torque Pro or OBDLink. What are the best things to be monitoring?
I am Using the Samsung Tab E so i have room for more than what my Android phone shows.

I think you have the core pretty much covered. Boost, rail pressure, wastegate duty cycle, and AFR being probably the most important. Stick with Torque Pro just because so many custom PIDs have already been worked out if you want to delve deeper. Just remember that if you are logging the data, the fastest response time is 100ms. Good enough to catch medium+ events.
