hi there the software is all the same (from obd-2, anyway). it's the 'black box' on the lead that's different. i only have the pwm lead, but one day i'll upgrade to the tri can. hth

It's the lead you buy - software is free download, but you need the unlock code that comes with the lead, although you can install the software just to see what it's like.
