Cobb Accessport Tuner shops?

hey grease monkies.
I've been having issues with my set-up (downpipe, uppipe, bov...). Does anyone know of a shop that is willing or authorized Cobb tuners that can tune the damn car?

Right now, the STi will keal over at idle (especially when it is hot) and run lean.

Can anyone recommend me a shop, please? Thanks.

It's the stupid BOV. Lose it. That's why it's stalling.

And I don't think the AccessTuner is out yet, and I doubt that any Subie shops in the Bay Area will get it...maybe though.

umm...the stupid BOV is keeping it from running too lean. The Check Engine light went off like crazy when I didn't crack it GFB open 100%.

Is there any alternative to the Access Tuner?

It's keeping it from running too lean? You mean for the split second it's venting between shifts?

That can't be. The car needs it to recirculate for the most part, right? I hope you find out what's goin on. I would be unnerved about that. Have you tried removing it and a hard reset of the ECU? I would go back to stock just to get her runnin right if I had to. Then I would reload the access port without the bov after the stocker learned some.

"the stupid BOV is keeping it from running too lean" too lean is a bad thing. maybe take off the GFB BOV and try the stock bov.

thanks Trunkmonkey. I too am unnverved by this. Tried the hard reset. Tried cracking the BOV at 75% open. Sweat talking.

The funny thing is the check engine light will come on once in a while with this set up. It doesn't stay consistently on during any type of driving.
