Cobb AccessPORT.. real deal?

Has anyone flashed their ECU with the Cobb AcessPORT? It sounds promising but I'm just a little skeptical that the gains will be as great as Cobb says they'll be.

Those are some serious gains for just a flash, no?

Cobb discontinued it a long time ago.

Buying the Cobb is a waste of time and money they no longer support our platform for some time now. I had the Cobb Ap and only gain like 3hp/2tq with off the self maps but with a tuner it'll prob would gotten bit more out of it. Like the others said go with UPREV but the key is to make sure you find the right tuner!

Oh wow, didn't even know that about Cobb.

I hear UpRev is great, but just like before, it matters more of who is actually doing the tuning.

As of right now I only have R2C Intake under the hood. I am soon going to buy FI Exhaust. With those two, what numbers and I looking to really gain with UpRev? I've seen posts where people only gain 3-5hp/tq with UpRev.

From my experience around 5whp, but it will pull stronger and harder throughout the powerband. Plus you get other benefits such as map switching:

Raising the rev/speed limiter, lowering the fan engagement temp so that it runs cooler, etc
