Cobb AccessPort tune review

[Apwrx]

Something seems off in the vid. If you watch some of the other videos that's around the mph and times their GT runs were. They got a best et of 13.1 @109 for the GT eventually. It seems more like a GT the way it pulls on the top end. Then you have the tune video Eco running 13.6 @98 stock 12.9@103 tuned.hmmm

Bama ran them both, see 1:22 here:



Manual 13.89
Auto 14.36

I had a feeling you based that conclusion entirely on that video. They only ran them one time head to head. The Ecoboost also "Got its doors blown off by the V6" in that video. So now the V6 is fast than the EB? Just a matter of conditions/drivers. Auto is much more consistent than any human could be

Soo went out and did this tonight. Very cold pavement. Traction issues. This was the best i could muster.

I'm pretty sure around the spring/summer time that you will be able to get better times.

So.
Got a crappy speedo video... 40-100. It was rainy. I think I can do better, but here's a quick video.

Not even 100, bit less. Still.

Very happy with this tune -- I've compared it to my GTI. Still slower, but still.. very impressive results for a tune only, and an OTS tune

Anybody know what rpm the car shifts at under wot with cobb tune?

Was your GTI tuned? If so, can you elaborate.

Car will shift at redline if you want it to.

My GTI had a k04, but sure, here's my power mod list I had on it:

Unitronic Stage 2+ k04 kit
CTS Turbo catted downpipe
Magnaflow catback
Unitronic intake

Here's a speedo video:


I wouldn't mess with a k04 GTI for a while on these cars...at least where they currently sit lol. I walked stock 5.0's.

Per my timing, the GTI is roughly .5-.8s faster from 40-100mph, which will translate to higher differences at higher speeds. These cars are fast, and tuned MK7 GTI's are makin ~340hp with just a downpipe, intake, and tune. Aka, they will beat us because they weigh almost 500lbs less.

In your video I couldn't tell where it was shifting. Is redline 6500?

 

[wireless]

yeah sorry, hard to film and record lol.

I was shifting around 5700 in the Mustang video. Redline is right at ~7k.

Does the car seem faster when you use the paddles in S instead of D?
