I realized yesterday with the test tune that Lance sent me how radically different the car can feel with different tunes applied. I was thinking once Cobb has had the time to develop more maps for the N54 it could be like having 3 or 4 different cars in your garage.....
Heading to the track? Going to the drag strip? Long highway road trip? In 2 minutes you can flash your car to be what ever you need for that day. You've got to love technology. |

one thing that i noted when driving the car during its release (2006) it that is just that -- deceptive.. by time you realize youre going fast, you past fast into "damn that was stupid" -- i can just imagine with a good tune its even better -- |

That was also the first time i changed maps. it was incredibly fast and I like what e92OCD said that this will be great for feeling like you have more than one car! Another major reason I bought the COBB, free maps! Thanks Lance.

I was having a look at the data log to put some numbers to my butt dyno. This is definitley a more conservative tune, but I think it's a very good map to use for a daily drive. Boost builds to 11.5 psi quickly and seems to peak around 12.5 psi at 4500-5000 rpm. What ever turbo lag that was there stock (very minimal) is all but absent as well. It's not going to throw your head back in the seat, but you can really feel the extra grunt over stock.

I've been testing several new stage 1 maps for Lance as well -- please be patient, the guys at Cobb are working very diligently to get the maps into your hands.
Good things come to those who wait! Don't let new map releases influence your buying decision, as the currently released 2.00 and 2.01 maps are still extremely awesome! You will not be disappointed; Cobb truly cares about their customers, and is working hard to perfect things. |

Ecu was not supported (08 335xi manual) did a rom dump, connected to my pc, firmware updated automatically and erased the rom download. I've left them a voicemail (after 4 or 5 calls with not answer) and emailed them to see if there is anything I'm doing wrong or anything that I can do to keep this from happening again. 30+ hours with no response to a very simple question. I would expect when a product is released that it would not have this many issues supporting ECU's that it is supposed to be compatible with and if they know this is an issue that they'd be quicker to respond. |

Did you email them the ROM? Or are you still having trouble getting the ROM off of your AccessPort? So now that your firmware is updated (which is the first thing you should have done) just repeat the steps again to do a ROM dump.
