What to look for in buying a used Cobb AP?

Sup guys, Im looking into buying used Cobb AP V2, it is from a 07 STI and he says been unmarried and used only for 3 months and he has the box and manuals..

I have a 05 STI, will this work? What else should I be looking for? All help is appreciated!

If you are purchasing it local, then you can make sure if marries to your car before you pay.

yes you can. instructions are simple on Cobb.

just make sure the dude ur buying from has some basic maps on there so u can test it. such as stage 1. which require no mods. dont wana do a stage 2 on a complete stock car or anything

just ask the guy to show you how it works on your car.
make sure its unmarried.
make sure its the right one for your car, you can find that out on cobb's website.
model will end with sub-01 or 02 and so on
