OBD II scan tool software

Anyone have this or have any reviews on it? Seems like it provides the necessary info to tune the RRM piggyback V2, short term fuel trim, long term fuel trim, of course with a wideband and it seems pretty easy to use... thanks in advance

Edit: forgot to put the link up

I have the proscan software. You can't do as much with it as with other software products that I've seen, but it's definitely worth getting. I used it to diagnose my check engine light and reset the codes. It also has the dyno, but I havn't had a chance to try that yet. Prints out nice graphs and has decent data logging as well. I give it a

It costed me 200$ on ebay, and it came with everything I needed. If you do decide to go the Auterra way, I highly suggest you get the PC version. It uses the same hardware as the Palm version, but you can easily find the unlocked Palm software on the internet. So you pay for and get the Computer version, and you are still able to use it on your palm. The opposite is a little harder, since it's harder to find an unlocked version of Auterra PC.

I have the ProScan also, i will admit it was an impulse buy it just seemed really cool to be able to monitor all that, i mainly used it to clear my cel when i had the rrm headers.
i think the dyno feature is prety good, did several runs and it always came up 110 - 112 hp, i will be running it again now with the turbo, going to do some runs on turbo alone and then install the rrm pulley i just got and see the difference. Im sure it is not really acurate, but it will be an idea of the gains before and after, i hope.

no, i have both pro scan and the tactrix cable for flashes and i have tried it also but it does not work ( was hoping to use just 1 cable), seems it only works with their ELM-based interface hardware

scantech works good for checking codes. its not the best to watch the readings that are taking place because its far from real time (1.5 seconds)around about. and its free and works with laptops and the cable
