The only ones they make are obd2, and the unit number should be ELM327, mine's manufacturer is BAFX. I got mine from Amazon, it was the one with like 200 reviews. Are you using Torque?

Right on man, so far its one of my favorite car related purchases. I was one of the fortunate people that got the dash without the tach... in a manual transmission. I put Torque on my phone and now I use my phone as a dash mounted tach! Brilliant!
