Cool Acess Port question

I'm a bit confused right now. A buddy of mine has a Cobb Access Port. He currently has Stage 2 on his 03 wrx. He offered to put Stage 1 into my 04 wrx wagon.

He first unmarried it from his car to put it into my car. So he married into my car soon after. When it was done flashing, he then unmarried again saying that my car will still remain in stage 1. I was confused, because wouldn't it put my car back to factory if he unmarried it, in order to put stage 2 back into his car.

I had just also put in a new high flow DP, so i can't tell if it's the DP or if the stage 1 is still in my car.

I'm confused.

you have no tune, and you're friend needs to learn some logic. If one AP could tune an infinite amount of cars, Cobb wouldn't sell very many AP's, everyone would just use one.

CN: you have no tune
