COBB EVO AccessPORT released and DYNO results
Negatory on the o2 housing......depending on how things turn out after PRo-tune software is out and Stephen can do a little custom tuning maybe I'll look into that.
I'm not too sure if at this (relative mild) upgrade stage if it would be worth the expense....kind of like upgrading the intercooler....I've been told until the stock turbo is pushing 24psi or so an intercooler usually loses too much pressure drop to make sense.
Next year before summer I'm thinking on either Cosi cams or Meth.
FYI to COBB.....the other day after having Stage 2 91oct loaded as the REFLASH I decided to go into the change map section of the AP just to look at the other maps...and so after I browsed the maps I just canceled out since I wasn't actually going to load anything new....well the next day I went to start the car and it wouldn't start.......no big deal I just re-set the ECU and everything was fine.....but maybe this is something to look into...as I mentioned I never did change the REFLASHED map or anything....so I wouldn't assume that just by looking at the different maps should throw a TRIP or whatever into the system where the car wouldn't start......ANYWAYS JUST FYI ON END USER USAGE

^ I'd also like to see a test using the economy map... if possible, maybe a dyno run (just so we know how much power you're giving up for insight on how much pulling power it'll have when passing up cars on the highway with that map loaded) but of course, more importantly a comparison of the fuel efficiency compared to before under similar conditions.
I just updated our FAQs (found in 2nd post on page 1):
Q: How easy is it to install
A: super easy, see video below of actual install
DeeezNuuuuts83- The following is assuming ECONOMY on the EVO is similar to SUBARU:
The key to an Efficiency map is to generate enough HP to sustain speed on the freeway. It will have enough to pass cars, etc. COBBs Efficiency map specifically states it is not intended for spirited driving. Your boost will be defeated to wastegate spring pressure (I think ~1bar on EVO). Timing map will be lightly adjusted and AFR for closed loop may also be adjusted. Subarus see 1-4 mpg change. Each driver is different, etc.

Stephen--
Looks like that girlfriend of yours has got the skills of a film editor there
Nice vid on install.....I would of went with some MuzacK from like the Beatles...but that's just me!!

i lucked up yesterday and got the last one that IA had in stock. i will say that the install and ease of use is simple/straight forward. and yes, to those who may not believe it--there is a very noticeable difference throughout the entire powerband with the stage 2 even on this 91 octane **** out here in AZ .
a big bump to the crew over at IA great company and staff to work with

IA is this true?, no more in stock
I remember you saying after the last one it will be on back order for a month. When do you expect more? Ill be ready to buy next week.
Someone else with more info should interject...but here are some bennies:
Read out live data...like RPM/MPH/Throttle Position/Coolant Temp/Intake Temp/KNOCK COUNT
Calculates 0-60time & Quarter Mile Time
Reflash back to stock in seconds
Security Mode/Valet Mode/Economy Maps for better MPG
Store different maps....ex: 100 oct map/meth map/etc...and upload in seconds
Soon Pro-tune/Street-tune software will be out and then you could essentially get 'customed' tuned by a tuner or yourself....which leaves nothing that ECUflash can do that AP will not
Hope this helps......

I would like to believe that but that's likely untrue. I wont go into it any more detail because whenever anything other than talking up/selling cobb products is done in this thread people get butthurt.
