OBD-II What to get?

[Victor Garret]

I'd like to get something that will interface with the computer on the ST and my laptop (later in dash monitor with computer). What is recommended. I need something that will connect to the OBD port then interface with my computer (windows xp). I'd prefer usb connectino to the computer, but if only serial is available that is fine too (they make serial to usb connectors).



What is recommended?

That site sells the cable for $95.

The $95 "cable" is the interface. I have an older model and it works great. With their software you have a virtual dash board.
