Do you have a 335/135 with the unit installed at the plano location that I may check out and ride in?

Can the dealership detect if you had a flash or not if you flashed back to stock before taking the car in?

I never really worried about that with my Subaru, but as others have said before, replacing stuff on an STi is a little cheaper than with the BMW.

This I am not sure...but I don't think they do? All the R&D was done at the Austin location.

If I find out information that differs...I'll let you know. Or maybe one of the guys will chime in. :P

The AccessPORT will need to be completely UNINSTALLED before taking it back to the dealership. Do not use the "stock mode" setting on the AccessPORT...there is a complete "UNINSTALL" mode that will need to be done prior, this puts your stock map back on, and it'll be as if the AccessPORT was never there to begin with.

WOW! this will be worth every dollar! Please put out a HUGE announcement when you guys are ready with the N55 engine updates. I will be purchasing this soon as it comes out.

Say good bye to having to take the engine bay apart just to go in for service! I love this!

Some one help!
It's a flash the safest and the smoothest way to go, this tune gained 73 whp with just a tune on a stock car, jb3/4 is just a boost controller, I would go with vishnu procede v5 basic if you want to save a little cash and get a great tune.

Is that hard to get it over the problem? so is that a no go for me to get the accessPORT now and wait for the 07 spec update?

Not at the moment...but I don't believe there has been any testing...so until we are able to get one in our hands to test...we cannot confirm compatibility.

There we go! Taking the 135 and the 335 you posted, the average comes out to 71whp/98 tq on 93 octane -- Seems solid.

Now would it be fair to say in 6 months from now, after you guys see much more results, and map tweaks that those numbers SHOULD be higher?

^ Nice gains. A little more octane adds hella tq. What's the peak boost exactly? I see it's ~14psi.

Speak for yourself, that's half the fun in modding. I have a Procede in my xDrive and there is no gear, RPM, or speed where it doesn't pull.

That I think is the heart of what COBB is selling - a tuner package; not a reflash or piggy back software. I bought a superchips flashpaq for my 2005 JGC 5.7 and that thing is faster than the 2011 JGC in every aspect. The NA motor went from "fun" to "holy $hit". Difference is that Flashpaq cost me $300 from a Jeep vendor. Granted that a BMW would have more complexities than Mopar, but $895 is a pricey meatball.

Edit: just watched the video. Nice choice in Major Tom.
