Eta: Supposedly they all miss a little bit and I am not okay with that. Something to do with balancing the crank

A scangauge can monitor anything that reports to the OBD port

Unfortunately the only ones that can give you everything you want are usually proprietary.
Blue Point makes an OBD2 scanner that will do most generic functions and give you a lot of basic info, but they run about 400.
What info are you looking for, specifically?
ETA: And what all have you done to think you need a scan tool? You might be able to diagnose that without one.

Could be an intermittent issue with a crank or cam sensor. Could be a issue with a coil pack or plug wires. If you can recreate the miss easily, you may be able to get it to miss enough that it will actually throw a code.
