Cobb AP with AEM Tru-Boost

Well just as the title implies, and I know this is probably a noob question but I just want to make sure I can do this before I install the tru-boost. So heres my question: Would I be able to use my AEM tru-Boost EBC and still be able to tune the car with Cobb AP??

Hmm thats what I heard... I had the tru-boost installed on my 08' X and i liked that you could have 2 boost setting and change them on the fly and then you had the switch for scramble boost on top of that

But now with the Cobb it would seem like a 3-port would be the way to go if I wanted better boost control no??

If you're staying with the stock turbo the stock boost solenoid is perfect. If you are going with a bigger turbo than a 3 port is highly recommended.

As far as the AEM + Cobb combo there is no need. The AP allows you to switch maps on the fly so you'd essentially be buying 2 parts that are doing the same thing. Buy an AP weather it be new or used
