:bowdown:So I'm priveliged to have the opportunity to basically "try" the cobb stage 2 OTS map for about a month until my protune is able to be done. It's kind of a stopgap to be sure my car is good and safe to drive until I can get dyno tuned. Batlground is loaning me the map until the tactrix cable and such is available for openECU applications for the 08. At which point I'll unmarry the accessport, return it to batlground, and dan will work his magic with openECU (the original plan). If you want to know why this unusual situation is taking place check my journal. It's a long story. Anyway, the Cobb OTS map by itself is incredible. It's like a different car (I know, how many people have said that?). The idle doesn't hunt anymore, the powerband is smooth and linear while being a substantial kick in the ass, and I get better gas mileage. :wiggle: Also it spools up NOW. It's nuts. Almost NO lag. I can't wait to see what the protune brings. In short, the car is a beast with just the tbe and the cobb stage 2 basemap. Much more than I imagined originally. My Dad drove it and was also amazed. He said "Holy shit" like 15 times. :rofl: A larger TMIC and a more robust recirc valve will probably be the extent of my motor work until the more distant future, because this is honestly PLENTY of power. Next comes the suspension. :naughty: I also want to extend a massive thank you to Batlground for making a potentially shitty situation more than right. :bowdown:They've done so much already for me and my car and I can't thank them enough for it. I almost feel bad. But I hope to at least return the favor by reccomending them to pretty much everyone. Now I just need to watch my speed. :hsugh:
Congrats! I remember what a jump it was going stage 2 in my 03' WRX... In my opinion it was much more drastic of a change then going stage 2 in my STI... HUGE power increase!
