Utah Evos
Ya I plastice welded it and repaired some broken tabs on the back.
I still need to fix your mest up CF Lip when I get the chance. I should have it all primed later this week and painted soon.
Yep and I sanded it down quite a bit and will put some good coats of primer on it to fill and take care of all those rock chips too

Comparing a dyno tune to a mail in tune is really not apples to apples.
You can get a email tune for the AP for the same price you can a ECUFlash map. Then with the AP you can switch maps on your own without a laptop, have base maps to work from, custom tune your own maps, datalog without purchasing additional software.
I do admit for someone on a budget ECUflash is prob the way to go. BUT there is some people out there that will pay for those extra features.
The EVO 8-9 uses a special dongle that was very expensive to make and with the low volume of EVO 8-9s being sold they decided it was not smart to keep it around.

The reason for the Access Port choice was i had spoken with a few other people that have them on their evos, (2) VIII's, (1) IX, and (1) X, they all explained to me similair results, gains, and benefits from owing the Access Port vs another tuning method.
Let alone I'm getting a good deal for the AP.

that blows, i paid less than that to have my car tuned on pump gas and E85 and my tune would blow the AP out of the water.
cobb makes good stuff but thier tunes are very generic and you will gain alot more and be safer by having your actual car tuned with ecuflash and someone who knows tuning
but hey its your money

i figure its cheaper than ther original price of 700, and i get the tune for free, the people ive talked with that own them say they really do prefer them over a ECUflash, plus i can change tunes without having to pay someone to retune my car everytime i get a new performance part.
You dont get the point man. Cobb AP is a generic base tune to work on all cars, its not a specific tune for YOUR car. Anyone who said they like it over ECUflash is either stupid or had someone who doesn't know **** about tuning touch their car
If you want a cheap easy tune then the AP is for you. If you want the most out of your car and the best tune you can get , having someone properly tune it with ecuflash/aem is the best way no question.
like i said its your car and your money

I think the Ap is a ok unit for someone just wanting a little extra but for the evo ecuflash or aem is the way to go hands down

How does that same person tune his car with ecuflash or aem if they can't tune with AP software?
