Confirmed: AEM UEGO logs in evoscan 0.90 just fine.
Just hooked it up today and confirmed it is indeed logging to both the screen and saved log correctly. Since the AEM UEGO doesnt come with a serial port attached you have to make your own. Buy a female DB9 cable (may need a male depending on the serial port on your laptop), wire pins 2 (use blue wire coming off the AEM) and 5 (Chassis ground). Connect cable to your serial port, select the correct com port and AEM UEGO and you are good to go.

. I am about to drop the $$ for one of these and was worried that it might not work with EvoScan.

Oh, I didn't realize what you meant. In the instructions (you can get them from AEM's website.. check in the forums section), it tells you how to wire the connector. It's very easy.. you only need to solder two wires (one for the serial data and one for the ground) to the serial connector. If you forget to connect the ground wire, the gauge WILL NOT communicate. Then, just use a USB-to-Serial adapter that you can buy anywhere (check Best Buy, etc.) for about $30.
To know what port to use, go into Control Panels/System/Hardware/Device Manager and look at the USB ports at the bottom of the list. The one labeled "Prolific USB to Serial Device" or something like that will be the one you want to look at. Right click on it and select Properties to find out what COM number it's using. Select that same COM port in EvoScan. Note: If you have two USB ports and you plug in to the 'other' one, it'll probably get assigned a different COM port number.
