can you connect to the Procede? If you still have not installed it than you will never find the answer to your question.

It appears that it is working based on your picture. You won't know for absolute certainty until you try to connect to your Procede though.

why don't you plug it in and try it...

Yeah, when you do your install just hook it up to the procede and check it before you run the cable. You can actually run the cable without taking the dme tray out too. Although, the dme itself still has to be removed.

Cuz his engine will blow if it's wrong! Didn't you read that guy's post that it happened to a couple of weeks ago? Blew chunks of his engine all over his garage... Just like that guy who blew chunks of his engine on the track a few weeks ago running the Procede!

USB to SERIAL is very common, but the thing is that it seems from your pictures that your cable is working, but noone can say for sure that you won't have any problems with disconnections etc. until you try.
And you also need to be sure you are running high performance, never D/C on USB and so on (win7), there is threads about it. Plug your laptop into the wall.

335I - It seems good, go try it out and let us know what you think about your shiny tune instead of all the worries.
