I went against your input and bought a V3 for 525.

And it monitors way more than I thought. Reliably? I'm not sure, but I was surprised to see 14.7 A/F at idle, as I didn't think the factory narrow band would show that.

Is the general consensus that it is or isn't worth getting the V3 over the V2?

So I ended up getting the V3 for a great price on NASIOC and I can honestly say Im glad I did. The V3 is able to quickly monitor up to 6 things and greater functionality over the V2. If you can find a V3 Sub001 I suggest going for it because they are hard to find second hand.

Great, thanks for the feedback... That's kind of what I was thinking as well since I don't want to add any extra gauges. It sounds like it may not be 100% accurate because of our older ECC, but I'm not doing rally X so the exact oil temp at any given moment is not important to me.

There is no factory oil temp sensor, you'll need to add one on your own regardless. Get an SMY clustermaker pod, holds two gauges and looks very clean. For oil temp and pressure have been using the innovate gauge that does both, much more useful than ever imagined--my practice now is after startup always wait until get some temp in the oil before getting on it. Also, even if coolant temp is fine (you can monitor that with the V3, much more accurate than your factory gauge that barely moves), oil temp can get very high doing hard driving.
