This is what makes Forged outstanding.. Bump for Sharif

I know with my sti stage one was usually just a flash and stage 2 was full exhaust with or without intakes. Obviously a custom tune would be the best. Not sure of any places near Edmonton, I know of one near sylvan lake (shumby probably knows this place but I won't mention their name here)but they are never touching my car lol

At this time COBB Tuning does not offer remote tuning services based on data logs. However, if there is a lot of interest shown from potential and existing customers, I think this is something that could be put into place in a reasonable timeframe.

Maps are available on the website under support. The maps may go through several revisions over time. A Stage 2+ map should be available shortly.

3. What is the process to obtain custom maps(locally and remote) and what devices can be used to supply necessary data?
1. Pricing is on the website. COBB does not typically participate in group buys.
2. Map information can be found on the website under Support.
3. COBB Tuning facilities can perform custom dyno tuning at this time (COBB in SLC/UT, COBB in Plano/TX and Surgeline in Portland/OR. Development is under way to enable the COBB Pro Tuning network to custom dyno tune any modification configuration. Since I cannot provide a date for this capability with 100% confidence, I will not quote one at this time. However, it will be relatively soon.

The AccessPORT will have datalog recording capability included in a firmware upgrade fairly soon.

Horsepower and torque gains are shown for each map on the website under Support. A dyno graph is shown on the product page for the G37 AccessPORT.

1. The modifications for each map is shown in the Map Notes under the Support page.
2. The AccessPORT comes pre-loaded with the maps that are shown on the website for the G37; Stage 1, Stage 2, Anti-Theft, Valet and Like Stock.

Yes, the AccessPORT plugs into the OBDII port under the dash to flash the ECU. After the ECU is flashed, the AccessPORT can remain plugged in to let you monitor Live Data channels and measure Performance or can be unplugged and the upgraded map stays resident in the ECU.

3% HP gain is for a completely stock vehicle. 11% HP gain for a Stage 2 vehicle (high flow cats). Stage 2+ will be higher still.

Even the Stage 1 update which appears to have been designed for stock doesn't include specific numbers or a dyno. As for programs I see Stage 1, anti theft, and valet, isn't there a fuel economy program as well? All this development time and it seems pretty sparce program wise.
Please understand that the product has just become publicly available. The Stage 2 map is available. Stage 2+ will be coming out shortly. Fuel economy will be in a firmware upgrade, which occur frequently.

The AccessPORT was designed to be very simple to use. Apply the maps for your modifications and that is all.

Yes, in the Map Notes under Support on the website you can find the modifications appropriate to that map.
Maps are not modifiable outside of COBB Tuning facilities at this time.

Wow. Will this dataloging be enough for us to send in for a custom tune? If you guys make this service available.

Different brands of intakes will cause skew the reading from the MAF and cause either a lean condition or a rich condition. Intakes will have to be tuned brand by brand.
