For years I've complained about EFI and how I have no control over it like I do an engine with a carburetor. Well, that time is going to come to an end.

I just ordered a USB OBD II cable and I need to find some free software that'll let me hack into the cars ECM to adjust things like timing, idle rpms, fuel/air ratios, ect. Does anyone have a good and free program that they use to tweak their cars ECM and if so can you share a link for it. Premium apk apps free download.
I'm running Kali Linux which is Debian based so I need something that'll work with Debian. Download film blue lagoon kualitas standar. I did find Scantool in Synaptic which will let me read and reset codes via OBD II and I've installed it but for the life of me I can't find it in my Applications list.
So where in heck was it installed at??? I also installed OpenOBD as a.deb file and installed it but nothing shows up under Applications for it either. So how do I access these OBD II scanners??
Would Scantool run under Arduino??? Try running 'locate odb' in the terminal, should locate paths for you to look into. It may just be a command line tool and not create any menu items. Ok, got all of this when I ran it: /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdecho /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass/llog_test.ko /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdclass/obdclass.ko /lib/modules/3.12-kali1-686-pae/kernel/drivers/staging/lustre/lustre/obdecho/obdecho.ko I kind of wanted a GUI style program where I'd just hook up the USB/OBD II cable and click an icon to launch stuff. Is there any free tools like that in the Repos or somewhere that I could download it or am I stuck with a Terminal command line program? Also what about something to actually hack the ECM and tweak stuff like idle rpms, timing, air/fuel, ect. Anything like that in Open Source?
I have found this: Which actually installs an icon that you click to open the program. I have the free trial version but when you open it it also asks for Lic and Key info so I guess there's a version that you can buy or maybe you have to buy it after so long when your trial runs out. Either way this is more like I'm looking for where you get an icon in your menu to show you where the program is. Still need to find something to tweak/hack the ECM to reset stuff though. Also ordered an ELM 327 compliant Bluetooth OBD II adapter just in case the USB OBD II cable that I ordered doesn't work. Better safe then sorry AND it'll be my FIRST Bluetooth device. As I understand it, the OBDII protocol is pretty simple.
If you get a simple serial scanner you can poke at it with any terminal emulator attached to the correct serial port.So if that's the case where are all the Free apps I can download and run under my Kali install, LOL. There are hand held programmers on the market but they cost in the neighborhood of $300+ last time I checked.
I'd figure that someone in the Linux community would have come up with an Open Source alternative to that by now since OBD II has been around since 1996 and practically every car on the road has a dang computer in it anymore. OBD Auto Doctor looks like it should be what I was looking for as far as scanning for codes and checking sensor data but I'd really love to hack the ECM to get better performance out of an engine or to fix things like low rpm on an older engine. There has to be something out there somewhere. Even if it was for Windows I could probably still use it under WINE if worse comes to worse. Folks on this site like to Hack, so let's come up with something to Hack the ECM in cars.
