For the Version 2. The version 2's are like $400-475. Version 1's I see for $150-275. There's was one on here not to long ago for $200.



Side note... How do you like the 255? I'm trying to figure out what the hell to do with my car. Planning on a new motor before the summer's over. Either that or I'm gonna sell the car and buy a forester XT... my wife wants me to buy a truck. BAH!

Do a search on our classifieds. There was one up there a couple weeks ago.

where'd you read that?

I know they stopped supporting it (upgrading it) and I know they don't work for cars over 2007 I think... and I did hear somewhere that the newest tuner software wasn't built for it but I didn't hear you couldn't use it...


that would suck. In fact I think it would be pretty messed up. That's a good way to force people to upgrade to your newest stuff but it's terrible customer support. I'd be tempted to just do open source if they're going to do this. What about someone that buys a V1 at full price. Gets their tune and then drives it untouched for years. Now they decide they want a new tune like they were promised when they bought it... but they can't. That's B.S.

I can't remember who posted it. It was either Cobb themselves or a Cobb authorized tuner. People threw fits over it.

I've been tuned by Ed at EQ tuning for about 3 1/2 years on 3 tunes. Top self tunes. Curret tune making 410whp with great drivability.

a V1 can be tuned if the tuner has the old software, I know GST does, you just don't get the fancy stuff like speed density, launch control, anti-lag and flat foot shifting.

AP doesn't do anti-lag and all of those other options (minus LC) he couldn't even do with a V2, as they only work on 32-bit ECUs.

You can still tune with the V1 but they stopped updating the software so you don't get access to a lot of the newer maps and parameters they've unlocked. This is fine for basic setups, but for more complicated setups I recommend using the V2. I actually prefer using open source over the V1 in most cases.

Yes, they discontinued support and updates, what, 2 years ago? I just remember sometime at the beginning of this year there was a thread on NASIOC where someone with a reputable vendor account posted that Cobb completely cut off tuners' access to V1s.

Yea. That's not really the case. They still make a V1 compatible protuner version available for download, but that version is a couple years old.
