I think, Phil got me and AJ conviced about getting the COBB. But, it might be a little while for me as I'm almost done fixing my car and have a couple of custom things to get done first. Jeff, how long do you plan on selling them for? Is there a certain amount of time and limit as to how many you will sell?

Negative Ghost Rider.
Phil's S/C'd AT will be at the dyno meet
1 New gen AT will be there
Where'd you get a turbo'd A/T
As far as I know Easy is not coming out to Cali since he's got Jeff so close. (although he's always welcome)

no but seriously - RP supercat is close if not equal in it's effectiveness to many mid pipes (depending one where you get it).

The only thing you have to keep in mind is the supercat won't give you a CEL. The mid pipe will.
If your using the AP even a mid pipe will not give a cel.

There have been some bugs with the CEL masking on the AccessPORT, so some people may experience a CEL once and a while until a new update comes out.
Ultimately, they will all go away for good.
Even the dumb ones like the loose gas cap and the random misfire.

How many maps you have for automatic?

I have HKS ignition amp, Nology wires, Optima yellow top, MS intake & exhaust.

what are the options for the maps if I am going to buy the product?

Like I said b4, I will have a turbo soon....so do you have that as well?

Any details on the map and dyno for the NA as well as the FI turbo?

Thanks, I am very interested.

R888, I would get rid of your nology wires. When i had my car dyno'd with the nology wires i was having ignition problems at higher rpms, which i saw on the dyno. The next day on the dyno i changed my wires to Mazsports wires and the problem was gone.

Thanks for the advice, my HKS amp push it up to start every single time...I don't have any problems so far but I didn't dyno as well...

I will try to see if the Mazsports wires are good. Just got the cooling fan unit from them..

I want to be sure to point out that Jeff went the extra mile with me so that I understood exactly what was happening and why. He also went thru the process of passing me new tunes.
OK I have replaced the s/c bypass valve with what Ray and I are hoping is an improved/upgrade to the original valve. Some of Jeff's concern seems to have disappeared and now should just be a tuning problem. Hopefully he will have a little extra time while we are both in CA for him to check it out. If not, the Vegas group is having it's dyno day the 24th of May and we can work on it then. I want to thank Ray for going the extra mile and researching the bypass valve and finding a upgraded valve. Hopefully we will take some pictures soon.

So MM, 09factor and I are going to do some dyno time this coming Monday the 21st. 09Factor has a turbo on his 04 AT. So this should be interesting. I have replaced my cat with a straight pipe so this should also be interesting to see any HP differences due to this change. Maybe I can find my missing HP.
Stay tuned.

+1. I saw the exact same thing.... $140 for uneven wires...
I did see a lower rpm improvement.

Eric, if the mid pipe does not locate your missing HP then I may be convinced that it may be due to a lack of flexability in the right foot.

Hope to find it Monday. Since I put the mid pipe on it's got more on the top end. Now the botttom end seems to be less. I think it just moved from one end to the other on the graph

That would be nice if you were there. I hope soon you can call AZ your home.
