^^^ what he said. IMO, the AccessPort is their "signature" product, all the others (TBE, swaybars, springs etc.) are pretty much on par with other aftermarket counterparts (Helix, Cusco, Prodrive, etc.). Hope this helps.

I think they make a good product but however every part that I have used from Cobb I have had problems with. My Accessport power cable just stopped working when it was less than 2 weeks old, it was $60 to replace! The Cobb up pipe I had on my car, the EGT sensor kept on coming unscrewed and falling out creating a horrible exhaust leak and it would continue to do it once every couple of months it became very frustrating and i was very disapointed becuase Cobb does have a good reputation.
So far I only have the Accessport and I am pretty happy with it. If you buy a used AP, it might be a pain to reflash the AP itself to your work on your car but other than that, I think its a great investment if you're not looking for crazy power.

I'm running the Cobb AP Stage 2 with their Up pipe w/the EGT port and catless Down pipe. I had a similar problem that 1sicwrx had but all i did was put some teflon tape around it and problem solved!!! I think that they make a great product and their quality is awsome!!
I've got their Short Ram CAI. Theirs was the only one with any posted/available testing information to go along with it. Lots of parts claim to help but these guys at least tested their product and presented their finding for all to see.
And for the side of me that laughs at fart jokes......its loud and fun... :]

+1 for cobb. my accessport got static shock so it stopped working so I sent it in. Its probably a little over a year old and they still took care of it no questions asked.
