Did you buy the AP from MM or somewhere online? I'm guessing you did not get 6 months of tunes free.

15 to 20 on modified. These are Dynos.
Main thing is other benefits.
Runs leaner at idle so you don't foul plugs and flood engine. fans come on sooner.
More oil is injected to seals etc...........
What he said....
I've seen the best improvements made on 8's without a cat.

Mmmm ya sorry about that. I must have a few too many pops when I did that. I generally start doing the free post thing if I've had too many.
Some people drunk dial, I free post. We all have our crosses to bare.

To be honest I would NOT recommend to anyone that they buy the AP if the only thing they were going to do with it was use the Cobb Stage 1 tune.
That tune really isn't that good IMHO.

My car actually throws a Lean Condition cell when I use the Cobb Stage 1 tune.
I can't remember the P# right now, I will try and find it.

Anyways the Cobb is some much more than that, its a tool and a good one at that.
I bought it because I wanted to monitor all the things that it can, and eventually make my own tunes using the Access Tuner Race software.

(myriadshalaks I haven't forgotten about trying your free tunz. I'm on holidaze this week, I hope to get around to trying them out)

I also knew that I would be getting MM to tune my car, more specifically I knew I would be getting him to tune it for my nitrous setup.
With that being said, you will notice my AFR's are on the rich side in the dyno's.

Thank-you or should I say MM thanks you.
Clean plugs, new wires and coils helps as well.


The cell that the Cobb Stage 1 tune causes is (mention in post #29)

P2270 Rear HO2S signal stuck lean ON 2 HO2S ´ (See DTC P2270 )

I was thinking about posting something about this in the Cobb forums however with all the modifications that I have I don't think it would go well, but meh I will do it anyway.
