Well, I wasted a lot of time today trying to get it to work. It promised to provide a RS232 port, but I could not get it to communicate with the Scantool, nor another device. I requested some "tech support", but no progress yet.
I should have just bought the "sure thing" as recommended in the Scantool threads:
USB to Serial Adapter
I resorted to hauling an old desktop computer out to the garage, but upon powering it up, I discovered that some one had taken the hard drive out of it. So, after all of that dinking around, I did not get much accomplished. I did manage to remove the undertray - too bad there is no snow, I could have gone sledding. It is amazingly clean, no oil saturated crud.
I fired up the red C4 and drove it out to the other garage for storage. It sounded great, that new clutch feels so light, .... I got really bummed out again.

What does that car look like now? Do you have any detailed pictures of it? Look on the bright side you have two 964's how cool!
