Question Best logger/scanner/reader software?

Doing the OBDI convert this weekend, want to make sure everything is acting normal. Looking for an AutoTap-like software, or at least log details in text format for later review. Already have TunerCat ready to go.

thanks

Freescan sounds exactly like what you want.

Not sure if it is what you are looking for, but I just downloaded FreeScan by Andy Whittaker. I think his web site is www.andywhittaker.com I'm not sure how good it is or even what exactly it does but take a look at it, and see what you think. It's Free(For now- anyway) I heard a lot of good things about it. Good Luck!!

If you have some sort of spreadsheet program, than Freescan has an option for that. It saves the info as a .csv file (Comma Seperated Values I think), and then you can open that with Excel or other program. It also has a regular text option, but not sure what that looks like.

Killer, this looks like what I need! Unpacked the PCM and bent it over the polishing wheel for about 30 min. I'll be damned if this doesnt turn out to be an appearance mod, too hehe

thanks guys
