Update
Ok, I know everyone on this thread has been waiting on this response so here is goes: So I purchased a "PIWIS USB Car Diagnostic Scanner Cable for Porsche Vehicles" off of eBay for $39.99 from obdinnovations. My 98 Boxster was in the list of compatible vehicles. They did a great job and had it shipped very quickly. I installed the software and could not get it to work with my car. The LED on the cable would never change from red to green, per the seller. I actually tried installing on three different laptops in case something else was wrong - this was again after contacting the seller and confirming what I was doing and how it was supposed to work. The seller provided me a return shipping label and said they would check it out when it was returned and if it was defective they would send me another one and if it wasn't they would issue me my money back. OK.... So without notice they issued me all of my money back. I'm extremely disappointed this cheap solution didn't work. But it didn't catch my car on fire nor did it erase my computer, just wasted some of my time as I did receive a full refund. So maybe some of them work, but this one did not work for me.
