You might be able to use it for datalogging or something, but you defiantly won't be remapping or tuning with it.

You should be able to use it with any logging program that uses elm232. AFAIK there aren't many but you can use MHIscan (available on the dsmtuners.com forums) mitsuscanner (aktivematrix.com) and several generic obd2 loggers. AFAIK evoscan will not work with this.

2g ecus can be reflashed with an openport 2.0 cable (this is not one) and evo ecus can be reflashed with a taxtrix or openport 1.3/2.0 cable (again that is not one).
