Question Cobb Stage 2?

What is required for this? I know downpipe, but anything else? I know the Plus version needs FMIC. I am about to install downpipe and chargepipe. Is there anything else that is needed before I can run stage 2?

Nope, you might need a fresh set of spark plugs depending on how many miles are on your current ones.

I do need new spark plugs. Next goal but don't have many miles on car. Only 38k.

The best pre-loaded map (most solid and consistent) is Stage 1 aggressive, if you have 93 octane available.

Just get a Pro-Tune and don't look back. By far the best "mod" investment I've made so far. The best way I have heard it described is the COBB OTS maps are like going to Dillard's and buying a suit, and a Pro-Tune is like going to a professional tailor. There are several very good tuners here on the forum and I will not be biased and tell you which to use, but I will share my personal experience....

I have one from ProTuningFreaks (PTF), and the way they work is you pay once up front, and any additional mods you make down the line (FMIC, Exhaust, etc), they will re-tune accordingly free of charge. The only thing you have to pay more for is if you change fueling conditions (Ethanol blend, Meth, etc). I am running an E50 tune and it is RIDICULOUS how much more power the car makes just by adding some E85.

Just some food for thought, good luck!
