Hey Jeff.

I don't have an accurate set of calibrations. I only have a single file that you edited like crazy.

Do I just send you that one file so that you can update it?

The new AccessPORT firmware is awesome. Go get it (links in the first post).

If you have custom calibrations which contain specialized info (fuel injector upgrades, unusual intakes, FI, etc.) there will still be an additional step after acquiring the new "base" calibrations to match your particular application.

Look for the first post to be updated with a new procedure and information.


All original purchasers are entitled to updates, regardless of how long you have had your AccessPORT, so don't worry about the time limitation on your Calibration Service contract.

Furthermore - the Asian, European and Australian versions are now ready. You can place your order by following the link in my SIG or go to
http://www.mazdamaniac.com/cobb/accessport.htm
Units will begin shipping in January to Europe, but almost immediately to Asia and Australia or any region that ships Asian or European spec RX-8s.



LOL.

Yeah, your stuff should ship tomorrow or Monday.
Thanks a bunch man I will be waiting the shipment and the tuning axiously :D

Ill be talking to my rotary mechanic to set up an appointment for a closeby saturday to install everything.

By the way id like to say that I am very happy with your customer support since you got out of that hole you were in with all the work. Really a big hands up, you have made me want to keep the mods and make this all work

wow, can't wait for the new base maps for my setup. maybe it will work without the need of a new calibration!

I'm glad it is winter in a way with cobb changing stuff up on you so much Jeff. Good thing I got a winter beater. 91 plymouth acclaim FTW!

OK. Stand by. I'll try out the new firmware and figure out WTF I'm doing now...
Too bad we can't ask cobb to compensate for us trying to get more maps out of you =(

I swear these firmware revisions have put at least my self back a few months with maps...and I'm sure others have as well =(

Jeff since we haven't exchanged any emails I just sent you an email with the "10 Deadly Questions".

This way I am "enrolled" when you send out these new calibrations.

That cool?

I dont' think he sends out new calibrations to everyone...

You get your base set, then datalog with them, send them to jeff asking him what you'd like done, wait, and he'll send you a new map whenever he can.

Actually, in this case, everyone is getting a new start-up set (if they want it).
So much has changed that it merits starting over.

I just downloaded the update. My dongle is now up to date.

There appears to be a datalog feature now directly on the AP. Wohoo

Yep, the datalog feature is damn awesome. Now it should be trivial for people to just drag and drop for the most part into a pre-formed Excel graph.

No excuse now for -not- submitting a decent graph, e.g cocktail napkins.

Yea but with some people's 6 months coming to an end is it worth it? Are the changes not incorporated into any revised map you send us?

what are the changes? I wouldn't mind getting a set, would give me an excuse to use the AP data logger at least.

Ok great! I sent you a new email.

I need my dwell settings changed back to stock because I upgraded from the Mazport coils to the BHR yukon coils.

When the 6 months are up, will I still be getting updates for changes that COBB have done that affects the maps? Or could we risk that something COBB does in future software versions will make our previous maps faulty?

I have to believe that eventually, Cobb isn't going to be putting out any more updates for this thing. I'm updating today and datalogging this weekend. Is it tough to do with the new update?

MM: I sent an email asking for the new calibrations. 2005 MT California model. That way I'm up to date on the calibrations when I do my datalogging

I agree. Now that the AP can datalog there are no other features I need.

Woohoo. Me too. I've had a b1tch of a time figuring out how to log. I've read through the forums and it appears there are logging applications out there. I was a bit miffed when I found out that the $700 AP couldn't log data.

Its a nice feature but I like using my laptop with the racetuner to log. For some reason looking at it in the laptop while I log is better hehe.

They won't.

The MAF tube needs to be as straight as possible (their bend isn't an issue, I don't think), with no transitions in size a MINUMUM of 3" to either side of the MAF itself. 6" is best.
They need at least one flow corrector (screen) and the inside diameter of the tube needs to be 3.375 inches.
Question about this:
If I have an AP, and a catless midpipe, and otherwise stock (stock intake) and my car is tuned by you, and then I put on the AEM, and you re-tune, what would you estimate the gain would be?

Maybe 7 - 10 HP.
Could be up to 15 or so, but stock exhaust is a restriction and tuning that last few HP out is not practical via long-distance.
My calibrations get you very close (and sometimes all the way there), but there is no guarantee when you are talking such small margins.
