ECUtek cables
 
Does anyone know if this EcuTek cable would work? I'm thinking of buying it off a subaru owner. It doesn't "look" different from the pictures of the cables I've been seeing, but I can't really tell based on pics.

Anyone?

No it won't.

You need the green cable

humor me here, but what's different in the green cable and the black cable? would be good info to have out there for those looking for a cable on the cheap. i have a green cable but i assumed that's just how they came. didn't know there was a black cable.

No expert here, just throwing an educated guess; there are different chips in the two cables. The black one was used years ago, the green one has more components/capabilities to be able to flash modern ECU's
