Because the tactrix cable is not just a cable, it's an entire interface. You can argue all you want, but I'm telling you, 100% it won't work.

evoscan is designed to work with a J2534 compatible cable.

ecuflash is designed to work specifically with a Tactrix OP2.0 cable.

you cable isn't an OP2.0 so it work work.
