Looking for Cobb AccessPORT

Hey guys

I been on a search for a Cobb AccessPORT for our RX8's. Now i know they been discontinued and most places don't sell them anymore (all places i have been able to check at least), but wanted to know if anyone knows of a place i can buy one or anyone knows of someone willing to sell one to me?

If im not able to get one of these what would be the other next best thing to use?

When they were originally discontinued, one member here negociated with Cobb to bring them back with him as the sole vendor. You can still get them brand new. That member has since been banned from the forum for various problems.

However, MazdaEdit is the cheaper alternative that is gaining a lot more support here on the forum for a variety of reasons. See this thread for the comparison between the two: https://www.rx8club.com/series-i-eng...b-best-252137/

Thanks for the reply. Mazdaedit is readily available? If that is another option then id most probably go with that one. Will check out the thread and take it from there.

Thanks!

It's software you can download. Once you read up on it, you will understand.

however if you are set on a Cobb i've noticed that they are consistently for sale here on the forum, just have to check frequently.

Ok thanks will have a look in the for sale section. After reading up a few things on both It seems to me that the AccessPORT is more user friendly than the MazdaEdit though.
