Its TIS cable, not T1S.
Sk, this software will only work with certain cables. The certified is Mongoose MFC, but its $500. The cheapest cable that it will work with is X-Horse MVCI, just search ebay for Toyota TIS, they go for around $120 shipped from HK or China. I bought it from seller ystoney2010.
It will not work with $20 basic ELM cables.

If you want Techstream to work fast, I hear that there's a $1600 module called CarDAQ-Plus, thats made by the same company that make Mongoose, but for casual use thats way too much money to spend. And even with that module I don't know how fast its going to be. Don't forget that the DLC3 port on our cars is essentially a serial port and the cable has a serial to USB converter. Think dialup modem when it comes to serial ports.

This product is cool, but the damn shipping costs more than the product itself!
But many thanks to Och for letting us know about it.
