The cheap devices all use ELM, and most are imitations of the devices made by ELM Electronics.ĮLM is ok for slow speed queries of the CAN bus on current Toyotas. There are currently two major device standards in use, ELM and J2534. That serial protocol can be delivered to a PC via USB or Bluetooth. The connector that plugs into the OBD port has a microcomputer in it that translates some subset of the OBD possibilities into a serial protocol. There's the old GM standard pins, the Ford pins, the European pins, the current Toyota pins, the Leaf pins.

For Mitsubishi, you'll need the adapter for most pre CAN vehicles which include the 5-9 Evo. No other Subaru vehicles require reflash adapters including Forester, Baja, Legacy, or naturally aspirated Impreza models. For Subaru you'll only need a reflash adapter for the 2001 through 2005 WRX, but not STi, unless you're working on an early non USDM STi in which case you made need one of our WRX adapters. We include a USB cable with each OpenPort, which is all the hardware you'll need unless you have one of the few vehicles that require a separate reflash adapter. Combined with our EcuFlash software, the OpenPort 2.0 is capable of reflashing a large number of newer Subaru and Mitsubishi vehicles, and support for other cars is in progress. The OpenPort 2.0 is our newest tuning tool hardware that is capable of communicating with a most OBDII compliant vehicles using a standard J2534 interface.
