    I'm trying to figure out how to start logging my car and am getting more confused the more I research. I've been here http://www.wrxatlanta.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3166&highlight=free+logger and click this http://www.tari.co.za/cgi-bin/yabb2/YaBB.pl. It says the web page can't be found. Anyone else know where to get the software or another program to data log thats free? I already have a cobb apv2 and have read that the cable that came with it will work. Is this correct? Sorry if all of this has been covered. Just trying to figure it all out and need ome help. Thanks Brandon

    I tried to use the romraider this morning and couldn't get it to connect with the ecu. My problem with that maybe I'm trying to use my cobb ab dongle. Can any one confirm if this will work with either program.

    i use the tactrix cable to log on mine, with ECUexplorer or ROMraider (formerly Enginuity).

    good link and good website
    especially for ecu/logging/flashing questions

    I downloaded ECUexplorer from the link that keeganxt. In the user guide that came with it, it stats that it will not work on the dbw ecus in the sti's. I can't get the ecu to connect to the laptop. The link that nsvwrx posted will not work. When I click download it says webpage not found. Is there away to get ROMraider to work with the cobb apv2 cable. Don't have the $80 to spend on another cable right now.

    that seems off to me. my 06 wrx uses the same drive by wire system that the sti's use and using my tactrix cable and ecuexplorer it works great. i would think romraider will work too once you install the updated ecu definitions and log definitions.

    Romraider seems the most user friendly BUT does it work with the AP2 connector?
