Just curious, what throttle maps are most people using? Has anyone tried all 3 versions for comparison.

I'm planning to switch from Dinan stg 2 to Cobb and am wondering which map would provide the same type of smooth throttle response.

I like v203 v2 map it's aggressive enough and i like the feeling of boost coming!!!

@ nitehawk, map 2.03 v2 alternate throttle map will give you the linear power delivery you are looking for. With that said, map 3.00 is great!

As many have stated, map 3.00 for me has also silenced the wastegate rattles (but I barely noticed in the first place)

Anybody know what H2AD0 (or H2ADO) and H2FA3 codes are?

Zeus78 · 08-30-2011, 08:10 PM

Hi all,

First post. Just got a 2008 135i. Cobbed it and must say I am amazed... No issues with the install, took some time and reading to figure out the beta non beta thing. However I am running v300 for 2 weeks now and had zero issues (no codes, no nothing!) and the car is a beast! I cannot see how any other version was better...not planning on trying them, just waiting for final non beta version of the v30x

I had a number of bimmers before, never tuned so I just figured out that super car performance came in under a grand mod and 20 minutes in the driver seat watching it do its thing!

Awesome!

belal242 · 08-31-2011, 11:33 AM

I really hate the v300. I was running v201 and loved it. v200 and v201 are my favorites. v300 has been killing me with WOT runs and early throttle closure. yesterday I had a long pull in 3rd gear and the car died on me threw SES and a few codes P2AAF and P2D59. Only if I could get v201 maps with all the additional new updates from v300.

You'll be the third case that I've seen with Cobb v 3.00 maps (including mine).

themyst · 08-31-2011, 12:08 PM

fwiw, I know the 203 maps work with the 3.0 firmware.

I talked to Ian from COBB and he said they are having a few people report this issue... they are working on a updated map and should be released next week to take care of this specific issue.

Seems like the same issue on the newest map.

...but Cobb themselves stated that running 2.03 maps on 3.0 firmware is not recommended and could result in unpredictable engine behavior...

I'm running v203 on 3.0 firmware and its running just fine.
Alot better then v300 where I got the requested torque dtc error.

I think he said that initially but has stated recently that it works fine.

Gimlet · 08-31-2011, 02:43 PM

Yes and yes. Experienced the same issue as others on the v300 WOT run. Keep in mind again, this is a Beta-map and not the final, as mentioned, there might be some bugs in a Beta-map that need to be worked out.

I did go back to v203 on the latest firmware and am running good now without any mal-effect. Looking forward to the next update -

At least yall can run your Cobb I have been waiting a week for my Rom to be worked in an told it would be ready this week and when I called to check on it I was told it will be another week ...so I have a 800 dollar paper weight..if you have a 2007 it may take a while

Clap135 · 08-31-2011, 04:59 PM

Got bored, decided to play with a virtual dyno on one of my stage 2 datalogs.
Right around 400 on pump gas, not bad for a beta map.
