I've had my cobb for a couple days now and I love this thing. Pulls so hard past 80 it's nuts. Can't wait for stage 2 so I can put downpipes on and make even more power.
Quick question though should I not use the aggressive map if I only have 91 octane available? |

Do all of your pins look ok for your CAN port? Everything good on the cable end?

yup, i fixed my bent pin on location numbered 6. before it did not even make contact and the AP could not communicate to the car. That was the only issue before but after i fixed it, everything else seems to work fine so i'm pretty sure there are no issues with my cable or obd port anymore. all my pins are good as well - i checked to make sure. is there somethign else we need to configure?
I guess i figure if i can see all the live data then i should be able to record it? because if i can see the live data then does that not mean my port and cables are working properly? |

Hey guys I skimmed though this whole thread and couldn't find what I was looking for. When switching maps on the AP it's not like the JB where you can do it on the fly right. You would have to pull over and it takes a couple minutes to witch between maps right?

The Cobb AP on the other hand, and almost any flash tune for that matter, actually goes into the ECU and tells the ECU, "Hey, I need you to perform at these levels, so adjust and compensate accordingly." Since you are dealing directly with the ECU the car has to be in certain modes to accept new instructions. Sorry, didn't want to make that too long of an answer but I really like to know the why of things so here's to hoping it helps others out. EDIT: If anyone sees/feels that I didn't word something incorrectly, please feel free to expand on/correct it. I am by no means a pro tech/tuner.
