Default Pretty technical EMS question

Hey guys, just a quick question here. I just noticed that pretty soon Garmin will release some new features to their newer units which will be able to read coolant temp, vacuum pressure, and many more-see link. To get these readings, the unit will plug in to the vehicle's OBD II computer. My question is, would this still work with the AEM EMS? Here's the link for more info:

Sorry if this is in the wrong sub-forum. I just frequent here a lot and know that there are a lot of people that post here a lot who are pretty knowledgeable with the ems.

the EMS doesn't use the OBDII port AFAIK so I do not think it will work.

hey chuck if you get the ems just get the serial gauge. It can read whatever the ems reads up to 19 different settings. Its the one I got.

Well thanks for the replies guys. Yeah I guess I forgot about that serial gauge. And to camuman- sounds good I'll go do some searching for that guy.

isn't there an iphone app similar to this? i should get it for my iphone and use it with my si.....won't work with the s2k cuz of the AEM.

i could be wrong, but i think the series II aem boxes use the obd port? i thought i saw that in the specs sheet of the series II boxes. maybe i'm talking out of my ass, too lazy to look it up right now lol
