I thought I got some better shots than this after the install, but all I had were these quick/crappy ones before I finished the adjustments. But here's roughly what it looks like. Car was hella dirty.

I need to figure out what I'm going to do about the vents in the hood. That driver side one is directly over my DCI and BOVs. I don't want them getting wet. You can definitely hear the engine/turbos better, though. LOL

Also, the trunk was a bitch to install. The hood was super easy.

I'm installing today. Let you know!

Deemo · 07-18-2012, 08:54 PM

^^^How do you do you guys like the Cobb. I'm debating between that and procede, I want to run e85 so I feel like procede is the way to go.

BlackBB6 · 07-19-2012, 08:14 AM

I'm thinking of jumping over to procede from cobb for their E85 map. Just a dci and tune and making close to FBO numbers, yes please. Unless cobb releases an E85 map in the next few weeks.

That's exactly what I'm thinking too. I guess I'll just wait a couple weeks before I pull the trigger.

BlackBB6 · 07-19-2012, 08:27 AM

I want to look into getting an E85 protune before deciding. Looks like there might be at least one guy getting it done so i'll wait for his results.

I'm still running 3.x (whatever the latest non beta release is) as I'm not much on running beta of anything at all. How is your experience with 4.x, Mo/Wookie? any others feel free to chime in as well. I'm an early 07, so I'd love to hear from someone else with that year.

all the talk of smoothing out the boost sounds amazing.

Wookie420 · 07-19-2012, 02:32 PM

I run the beta maps as soon as they come out and have had no issues. Been on 4.02 for a few days now and think it feels great. Not sure the differences between 3.01 and 4.02, but it runs awesome.

BlackBB6 · 07-19-2012, 03:12 PM

Don't forget 4.02 is only out for stage 1+ and 2+ at the moment. I knew I should have pulled the trigger on an IC before summer.

Rookie83 · 07-21-2012, 12:36 PM

If anyone wants to join im headed out to arlington/gp at about 3pm to the lincoln tech car show. Ive never been so i dont really know what to expect. Im really just going out there to support my friend and his company 360 wraps. I figured if im gonna be out there already i might as well pay the $10 and enter my car for the hell of it. If anyone wants to join let me know.

bpsu07 · 07-21-2012, 09:09 PM

^ If I saw that earlier I would've warned ya lol.

Ms6 to 335i · 07-21-2012, 11:05 PM

Man your not kidding!! I have never seen that many ricer idiots in my life. It literally was a nightmare, but like i said i was just going out there to support a friend. I took my gf out there with me and after about 20 mins of walking around she looked at me and said lets get the hell out of here. Way too many crap hondas and the heat was horrible, so we went and had frozen margaritas instead lol

Misturrtinnie · 07-23-2012, 08:26 AM

Hahaha funny thing is. Most of the nicer cars were in the parking lots.

Deemo · 07-23-2012, 09:00 AM

just ended up buying jb4 + usb cable for 400 shipped. I decided against the cobb because i wanted the auto tuning map 5 on the jb4 and map 7 for e85. The Jb4 just seemed to have more features, and it's cheaper!

Did you get in? We saw you guys pull up when we left. Never attending a CCM again after my 3rd time lol..

Rookie83 · 07-23-2012, 09:13 AM

Ya we got there at about 4 and there was no possible way to get in, the cops basically shut it down and started telling people to turn around and leave lol. We ended up having to park at that other lincoln tech building right off of arkansas and walk to the meet. On a side note, did anyone see that badass m3 that was inside and that s5 coupe by the front gate? both sick cars!!

the quality of stock cars there was awesome! and also that rev battle between the m3 and nsx was equally as awesome!

Deemo · 07-23-2012, 10:49 AM
