I need a cable..

I am getting a laptop and i was gonna download some scanning, diagnostics, etc. software on it because i hear there are tons of programs you can get for free (At least trials)

I was wondering A. what are the names of these programs

and B. Where can I get a cable that goes OBD II to USB?

Its a 95 so its OBD 1 but you need a OBD 2 style connector

I bought a cable on Ebay and paid $75 and it came with a free disk with 10 or so free software programs.

I'm not aware of "tons" of programs, but try these:

Scanning software for your OBD-I 1995:

TTS DataMaster (free download, 20 free uses):
http://www.ttspowersystems.com/

FreeScan (free):
http://www.andywhittaker.com/

pcmcomm (bundled with LT1_Edit software):
http://www.carputing.com/

EFILive V4:
http://store.efilive.com/overview_obdi.aspx

Cable available from:
http://www.akmcables.com/

Be sure to specify the 95 cable, to get the correct connector and the correct pin assignments.

Tuning Software:

LT1_Edit:
http://www.carputing.com/

TunerCat:
http://www.tunercat.com/

When you are on the LT1_Edit and/or AKM Electronics sites, they have links to tuning documentation.
