find an abandoned airfield or dock. i'm sure there are lots around RI.
you might also see if there are any private roads where the owners will let you zoom-zoom.

cosmic, do you use your laptop with the software?

I was planning on using AE with my Windows Mobile5 PDA/cellphone. In the description it says that it can display live sensor data of your choosing. Does it include boost, air to fuel ratio and other important stuff?
Any pictures?
yassir, I bought a toshiba sattelite on ebay for 300 its got a 2ghz chip with 512ram and a 15" screen with 2.0 usb's its the perfect laptop to be a dedicated scan tool

the battery doesnt hold much of a charge however (need to replace it), so I bring along my inverter and a optima yellowtop as a passenger till I fork over the cash for a better internal battery. (reason for the optima is because using a usb hookup to the obd2 port and getting power from the cigarette plug causes a ground loop that effects usb devices) the enhanced software basically need to be associated with one and only one computer (you get an unlock key) so having a dedicated machine to use just as a scan tool is a plus since you can only reload the code for the enhanced software so many times before ya gotta pay a fee(somethin like that).
so for the whole shabang with enhanced mazda software I paid just shy of $600. IMO its a great first mod for the car if you plan to add parts later down the line.
