You have to build a harness that powers up the ecu, has the OBD II connector and init connector all wired in with correct power and ground etc. If you google bench flash harness you will see some examples.

As the other poster said, it will take less time to go to your friends car.

Download the factory service manual and look in the electrical section. It shows what wires connect where. I don't think there is any step by step instruction anywhere though, but it is pretty easy to work out.
