OBDII interface

Actually, I guess the SAE web site lists naturally aspirated 1995 850s as 100% OBDII compliant and turbo 95 850s "Not compliant to OBDII". Other than that I too use the two magic boxes in the engine compartment. A couple of weeks ago I've found a FREE program called FreeDiag for linux and they also have the instructions to construct a DLC to use RS232 (Serial port). However, I don't own a laptop and don't need one as I have the interface to check codes. But I strongly encourage everyone to email the developers of the freeDiag and have them port the application to windows if you're not familiar with linux.
