That's not going to be VGA. That's going to be Serial, and if I had to GUESS, I would GUESS RS232. Count the pins. I've seen those USB cables for tuning the Dynatec, etc. ignitions. I'm going to GUESS that they are a USB to RS232 converter, which you can buy for a few dollars from various outlets.
you are correct the dyna ignition uses a old school serial connection. off the top of my head I think its pin 3 data TXD goes to the tach wire pin 2 RXD goes to the voes wire and pin 5 is ground. most new computers don't use serial connections anymore that's why you need a usb to serial converter

I know... just felt like being a d**k because I can't get into the minutia of electronic tuning. I have the power vision for my tc96 and it just makes my head hurt. This is why I'm going back to the evo; to simplify.

Real time AFR monitoring is nice, I hear they work well. D, do you have a Dynatek ignition programming kit? If so I see that it has a VGA connector, can you use a vga to usb connector to a laptop and will it still work? I'm thinking of getting one to customize the preloaded curves from Dynatek...

the dyna ignition is way easier than a power vision
when Im riding if I notice any ping or spark knock I look at my tach when I get home I plug it in and remove a little advance from the curve at that rpm
it took a few weeks to dial it in but now im getting max advance without detonation.
