Question Tuners use??????

Im starting to get seriously into tuning, but im just starting on the evo side of things. Im buying the pro software from Cobb but i cannot use this on my evo, the cobb access port has been discontinued for my 2005 Evo 8. Im wanting to know what i should start using so i can tune my personal Car,
i am going to be going to get certified to be a tuner but id like to learn some of the programs so i can do more than just one type of tuning software. On top of learn more of the basics.

i dont know what ill need i see some tuning softwars use a obd2 connector and plugs into the cpu from there so what do you guys think is good to use? where do i go to download the software or pay if need to? please let me know because my car is getting worse as the weather turns.

Try to search for it.

EcuFlash is a free software. You can get the cable from numerous vendors on this site.
For the evoscan, you can purchase it for $25.
