The COBB AP definitely has one of the most advanced logging capabilities as compared to the competition. For a complete listing of current and new monitors, visit our BMW AccessPORT Data Monitor List.

I'll be impressed when a tune has the logging capability and control similar to Hondata K pro

it amazes me how Cobb has grabbed the N54 tuning world by the freaking balls only 7 months after it's initial release.

we are at the early stages of this wonderful tune and it's logging capabilities.

it's clearly one of the most loved tunes out there right now.

it's almost like being "Rookie of the Year", but also being voted "MVP".

it may be the new kid on the block, but the impact it's making in the N54 community is astounding......

Hey Everyone,

We will be posting up a pdf with descriptions which will grow into a guide of what you can expect from a healthy car and when parameters are going out of range. Should be up later today.

Thank you for all the kind words!

Cheers,
Rob

The nice thing about Cobb is their vast tuning experience. They have APs for a lot of different platforms. I know they are fairly successful on the WRX/STIs and Mazdaspeed3s. They are pretty much the only tuner on GTRs. So, I'm not surprised that they are doing well in our platform.

No worries about making power, look at stage 1...for those boost levels and conservative timing power is way up there

its not about making power, its about how you do it, i.e. refinement...if all you want is just some power throw an SSTT or JB+ on and Bob is your uncle lol love that phrase

lol - i made a hair under 100ftlbs over stock on JUST stage 1

pfffft, not bad for 07 support that's been around less than 4 months.

........and i did that in 93 degree heat in Austin Texas.......with low 12 /F's....

if THAT'S stage 1 power, Stage 2 will wipe the floor with anything currently available - and continue to do it SAFELY !!!!!
