    if you have a laptop then go for the 10 usb cable. it will do everything you need it to on a mk3 and most if not all of the things you'll need on a mk4

    I'd go for the laptop as well.

    I was well impressed with it and still cant believe that a single grey copper wire can tell the laptop how much fuel is passing each of 6 injectors, amazing!!!
