Mitsulogger and EcuFlash are both free downloads.
Here's the site for all of them.

Just go to the Aktivematrix site and download everything you need for free. It's that easy.

Sry for the hijack, but can you tune using mitsulogger? Say change the af ration or advance timing? I'm just curious, I wouldn't touch any of that without being more knowledgeable on tuning but I was just curious, thanks

Negative Ghostrider. You use Mitsulogger as a logging tool, therefore tuning with it indirectly. To directly change A/F or any other number of things you need ECUFlash or some time of tuning tool like a stand-a-lone or piggyback. Read the posts above. People have been saying exactly what you need for tuning.

It shouldn't be locked with a regular flash.
