Default Look at this link - the modules labelled with K2 require TWIN-COM to access

My dual-K line was $85 @ obdtool.com, not even the slightest glitch.

Default Aww man...I think everyone should spend a few extra bucks and support Ross and the software...

But, I know, I know...it's captilalism...competition reigns supreme :-\
