Hello all. I was looking for a specific Car diagnostic software package and I noticed that this type of software doesn't come across often on the seas. are their any good places I can go to start looking for this kind of software. The software often cost up to 500 dollars or more and for me it would be a one time maiby 2 time use.

That might be because there are free and open source versions out there

Ive used it many times. You can consult, and erase errors code etc.
If you know what you are doing, this app is perfect.

Perfect to do some diagnostics

You didn't mention what features you need. I'm saying it's option that might work for someone who just wants to fetch some metrics from their vehicle

calibrating the feul injection of the car. is one of the things i require. Also being able the change parameters in the ECU.

Gave it a shot and almost anything i select it states unsupported.

What kind of connector are you using to the car?

The cheap OBD dongles are all elm 327 only support a basic error reading and clearing, and some basic engine metrics.
