Just got my AP and I recently heard a veteran Subie owner that COBB's MAPS cannot be trusted and can ruin your stock ecu. Is that true?

 

no....

 

as far as i know cobb maps are perfectly safe. however they are not optimal for power. a little on the rich side.

 

+1 a so cal guy blew his motor on one

 

lol prolly due to his own modds not the maps. or the maps were incompatible? =p

 

I know a lot of people ignored the "use stock intake" rule for the Cobb maps. The maps however run on the more conservative side, meaning that sacrifice power for safety.

 

no

him not knowing what detonation sounds liek and blowing a motor

 

off topic but how much did you buy the AP for? i'm looking to buy one as well.

 

^ same here im been looking for one for almost a week now i need soon cuz i have dinero on hand for now

 

Well, first off I appreciate your feedback. I bought my COBB AP from CVR Motorsports. Hit up www.cvrmotorsports.com, right now they have free shipping. Godspeed on your tuning.

 

Really? His fault then not the map lol

 

im having good conservative fun on my COBB maps. i'm planning to get a pdx map after i install my ej257 block on my wrx.

pdx maps, anyone hear any good results with them?

 

ok... Cobb maps are menat as a "get to the tuner" map... they are not meant as a drive around all the time map... it is safe, but a tune is recommended

 

Hat3r 671, look into Clark Turner maps.. he does e-tunes if you're on a budget, and basically personally tunes your car.. you just got'a get the map.. log it, send it back, he revises.. and repeat until perfect.
Clark Turner has a thread on Nasioc.

Also, John Shafer(tuner from Cobb) does e-tunes as well...
