Basscadet Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 I am not sure why nowhere on this forum this information isn't clearly spelled out? I go to Tactrix's website and I click on Legacy GT 05-06 and I am taken to a screen that offers 5 products, none of which are a "cable". Do I need to purchase the Open Port 2.0 device to work with RomRaider? The $169 one? If not, where in the hell can a 2005 Legacy GT owner buy this elusive "Tactrix cable"?

dudeondacouch Posted October 2, 2008 Share Posted October 2, 2008 They do not make the v.1 tactrix cable anymore, only the 2.0. If you don't want to spend the 170 you will have to source a used one. However, $170 + free software + some time = great bang-for-the-buck. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Basscadet Posted October 3, 2008 Author Share Posted October 3, 2008 They do not make the v.1 tactrix cable anymore, only the 2.0. If you don't want to spend the 170 you will have to source a used one. However, $170 + free software + some time = great bang-for-the-buck. I agree, the $170 is pretty reasonable. I just wanted to be sure that is actually what I need to buy! Quick question: My brother bought a Tactrix cable about 2 years ago for his 2002 WRX. Is it likely I can use that same cable? Do I risk damaging anything if I try to use that cable with RomRaider and my 05 Legacy GT? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dudeondacouch Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 It is, in fact, likely. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z28dreams Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Find out which version of the cable he has, and then check here: http://openecu.org/index.php?title=EcuFlash:VehicleSupport It looks like all cables used on 02 wrx's are compatible w/ 04-06 LGT's.

bocalu99 Posted October 14, 2008 Share Posted October 14, 2008 I am the biggest tuning noob in the forum and I easily used a 15 dollar VAG COM cable the other day to upload the mickeyd stage 1 map Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
