Default Scantool and adapter for 964 and early 1994 993

What is the best place to order the Rennlist freeware scantool? I have the software already.

My car is early 1994 European 993 which has the same 19-pin old OBD1 system as the 964 (plug is located in the passenger footwell). My good friend has a 1993 model 964 and it's located there in the same place. Should look something like this.



Is there one place where I can order them all? In the EU area preferably (means no customs). Thanks.

Thanks for the reference to my web shop.

It is important to know that By-Tor's picture show a completely wrong pin wiring scheme. This will not work at all in any Porsche model.
This is sadly not uncommon from suppliers with no knowledge of Porsche vehicles, sold on common e-trade platforms.
Cheers,
Tore

The T-OBD is indeed needed, this is only commercial adapter for use with the Scantool Rennlist freeware.
In addition to the T-OBD, you need a 19-pin adapter for use in your car.

By the way, if you are handy with electronics and a soldering iron, it is also possible to make your own scantool adpater. This is discussed elsewhere on this forum.
Cheers,
Tore

Thanks for the trust in our stuff.
By the way, the diagram above with 19-pin pinout is not at all correct. None of the wire connections are correct. A quick glance on the 964 schematics will confirm.
This is a typical example of online sellers that do not know anything of Porsche electrics.
I would urge user geldgrube to remove this diagram, it is greatly misleading.
Cheers,
Tore

I'd remove it but can't edit it anymore.

@tore: The scantool works great. Thanks man. However we couldn't read tiptronic data from my friend's car. Any tips?
