I talked to cobb directly and I have heard them say that they are trying to patch some things with the OTS maps to fit the 11's. I'm in the same boat, I would just wait and see what they do, unless it's already out and I don't know about it

Just do it. Especially f your getting one used as it SARS you money. It is one of the best mods by far u have done to my 2011 GSR. It can tune, data log, and vmcab watch live data. It's a great tool. And if you can and want to learn get the acess tuner race software and fine tune your own car (if you can). All you need o do as I DD when I bought my used AP is download the 2.0 manager software, and beta maps. I'll be honest I have not dynod the car yet but it is smoother, running a lot better and there is for sure a good amount of power just from the stage one map on 93. I has since done some tubing and will post my dynos of each mod to see the real differences.

You won't be dissappointed I promise.

The 2008-2011 Evo X all use the exact same AP unit, the only difference is the software which is easily updatable from your computer.

I have an 11' MR and I use a cobb AP, for my car the stage 1 maps... just just sucked, they are alpha's and I understand that, but my car was bucking and just flat out didnt like the tune... that being said I didnt just give up... I felt that my investment would be worth it like i wanted it to be. so I loaded a stage 2 alpha map. and seriously my evo X MR has been bad *** ever since. I need to do some tuning.. im still blowing the dreded black smoke out the rear, it is still fairly rich but not anywhere near as bad as it was stock. I am very happy
