Unhappy cobb accessport help

here is the story... i wanted to get an accessport so the girl im dating decides to bid one off ebay for me... she wins but i read the seller's description and it says its married and he sold the car without divorcing it. i called cobb and they say its 395!! to reprogram it... does anyone know a way to fix it cheaper? or i'll just have to take the lost. =\

Try and resell but thats shaddy =(

You can't really do anything. You can try and get a refund or relicense it but thats not even worth it. Just gotta be real careful next time. I'm sorry, I know how it feels.

cobb accessport vs ekutek

I have an 07 wrx tr and want to get either a reflash or cobb accessport. Since the price difference is negligible (695 for accessport and 750 for reflash), what do you recommend? I already have an intake and cat-back exhaust and am not very handy. I want something that will improve performance without reliability issues. Which one should I get?

it's Ecutek I believe. I love my accessport for my 06 WRX. It's very easy to flash and maps can changed rather easily (when you have the parts to change or going for a protune)

your gf should have read the discription better or ask you to look at it first then bid but anyway if you want it might as well pay the 395 it will be kinda ****ty if you resell it.
