    I need to find a adapter to plug into the OBD2 female end inside my car so I can attach a laptop for data logging what my ECU for a new mapping on my ECUTECK.

    I have checked MicroCenter, Bestbuy, car parts places.

    Thanks,

    Cheech

    Do a search for the Tatrix OpenPort cable. Otherwise, you can borrow somebody's AccessPort cable -- assuming that your laptop has a serial port on it.

    Buy a cheap pocket obd-2 scanner and cut the cable off. You can find schematics online for wiring that up to a serial port. I bought a cheap obd-2 scanner for $40 at checker.

    Otherwise yeah, the OpenPort cable from Tactrix.com is great, that's what I use for my car.
