you can get a bluetooth/wifi adaptor for £25 on ebay, then its just down to the software you have on your droid/i-poof/laptop etc. There is stuff out there cheap/free that will display whats available in the OBD data stream.

I assume you want ABS to purge the ABS module, i could never figure out if the things like EASE while they claim to be bi-directional if they can actually run such things on a viper, couldn't be bothered to look into it too far though.

There is at least one DRB II in private hands in the UK and if he is selling it i call dibs.

the problem with the DRB it was regularly updated and hugely expensive, so unless you keep paying for the uploads it may not be that useful

recall that chap in Luton who brought all the dreamride Silverstone GTS's had one for sale a few years ago, didnt he want £3000?

it ended up around the corner from me with another viper owner, used it to try and program my key fob but failed miserably but that was more to do with the eem than the drb. I think its a case of without the updates is still good for what it was for but dont expect it to work on the latest tech so not sure if it would work on the ACR without an update but should be good on the GTS.

Talking to Chris at DC for some software wich can be read direct the OBD port..... But think this will be for Re-Mapping only but will ask and find out....

The one that is used at Atlantic was a generic one(sealey i belive) got me out the poo a few times on the mustangs ... Missfire codes 02 sensors ect ect.. 99% sure it did oil and coolant temps as well...

I'll see if i can borrow it and try it on the Viper.....
