Note, this was with the original Cobb AccessPort Beta for the 2007's in Stage0 (stock boost) mode since I didn't like the Stage1 power handling (too abrupt/unpredictable).

The next day I tried the updated Cobb in Stage1 mode and it Limp'd me on the second session even though temps were lower (270-280 range). I completely detuned and removed the Cobb for the last two sessions and had normal temps (I think, need to double-check the data and post) for those runs. This is with the stock oil cooler and running between 95 and 100 degrees ambient.

nice run. I'm guessing based on the oil temps you're using stock cooling?

details on the ECU hookup please, where did you mount the Aim and how/where did you run the OBD cable?

I'm using trackmaster with a bluetooth Qstarz GPS and then off to Dashware for analysis/video integration but I have no hookup to the ECU for temps, would love to get that info in somehow!
