cobb tunings accessport stage 2

cobb's stainless steel brake lines

ooo.

just recieved today, and installed the stage 2. and man its a BLAST!

specs: 280hp/ 285tq on 91 octane. :clap:

those specs are on a turbo back exhaust (catless) and a CAI.

what i have is a downpipe w/ a hi-flo cat, and a ghetto CAI. LOL. soo i am no where near those specs. but still highly noticeable gain in power. according to my boost gauge, 2nd and 3rd gear are at 18psi strong, 4th gear goes down to 15-16psi. runs great so far.

no we didnt. we got it through a company in washington, so that we wouldnt have to pay brokerage fees.

around 790ish. then plus something like $72 in tax. yea the Accessport is great. even if you upgrade your turbo, injectors etc. you can d/l different maps for those kind of set ups. just head over to the cobb website and d/l them from there.

not hard at all. pretty straight foward instructions. nothing complicated at all. ahaha our first tank of gas on accessport we got approx 21 miles/gallon AHAHAHA.

Would one access port work on multiple wrx's?

Or does it become ECU dependent after its first usage?

CRXguy
05-11-2005, 04:57 PM
no, it only works on one car at a time. if you wanna use it on another wrx, you have to "un-marry" it.

Awesome thanks for the info.

I'm looking at getting a WRX soon but just gonna hold out and see what the 06's will look like......its pretty certain that the engine will go to 2.5 and the 2.0L engine will be gone from the whole subaru line up

2.5 is what the legacy uses so i'm also gussing on a good amount of hp increase / lower end torque due to the extra displacement....

only a few more months of wait :)

05-12-2005, 08:59 AM
The 2006 should be out anytime now. Probably in a couple of weeks.

The 2.0L engine is probably only disappearing from North America, not the whole Subaru line up.

The STi in Japan, Europe and Australia still uses a 2.0L. I can't see that changing because of homologation for WRC. But I could be wrong.

05-12-2005, 09:48 AM
Yeah I was implying the Subaru line that we have access 2 :)

Maybe i should of made that more clear haha....

I'm hearing that it will be around July/August time that it should be released....and that the 06's won't be in production for long, like 10 months...then the reampped 07's will come out....but again Subaru is being hush hush on it!

Ughh I wish I had enough for an STi haha.....financing this WRX is gonna be a 'female dog'...but gonna be well worth it thats for sure!

so you resurrect a 1.5 year old thread to ask a question in which the thread had no subject of in the first place?

Also since then we have gotten our own Subaru Specific forum. Look in there and post your question in its own thread.
