The huge problem with this is. How do you seperate abuse from a aggressive tune? Warranty on a engine that is built to beat the french toast out of! Yeah Right!

I think it should have a 3,000 mile warranty. Any properly built motor should last at least 3,000 miles.

There are way too many ass hats to build motors and actually offer a warranty of any kind. Even with my small amount of dealings. It amazes me what I see. There are reasons why companies come and go. It only takes 1 20k motor fail have to be rebuilt to put a shop out of business if they offered any kind o fwarranty.

So I've been recommended Jason Cleverly or racing edge to get a pro-tune for $250 instead of the Cobb AP for my 2013 WRX. Anyone here has any experience with these guys? What your thought on pro-tune + tactrix/ECUflash vs. Cobb AP? My goal is just a simple Stage 1 so my car can run better as we all know the infamous factory tune isn't very good. I have no plan to get a downpipe or any stage 2+ items. Looking to keep this car for a long time so nothing over 300HP for me. IMO Cobb AP is very convenience since I don't have to drag a laptop around with me like the protune/tactrix combo. But it costs more and the OTS map isn't all that good. However it allows me to instantly monitor my Boost and thing like that on the go. Can ECUFlash do some sort of real time monitoring if I drag a laptop around with me?

Dude, just get a Cobb accessport and be happy. Yes the cleverly runs will get you more hp and cheaper but the acceasport offers a ton of stuff, not to mention all the support. If you were running e85 or larger turbo I could see open source but for simple reflash go with the Cobb.

I thought the pro-tune was going to be better anyway. Or at least that what I heard. As I said I'm not going to tune it to e85 or get a larger turbo. The car will be bone stock for as long as I have it. There will be nothing that I want to add that will require a tune. So Cobb would probably benefit me more even with just the OTS map from Cobb?

How do you tow a semi-truck out of a ditch? Here's how it's done. [Video]
I wanted to make some competition for the FORD ad seen above. I know this is old and has been posted 1,000,000 times.

The biggest downside to AP is that it's generic. This is also it's strongest suite. Now with development behind it, you see more and more features and support with one (Full sd all years, fuel pump duty, per gear boost control 08+etc). The danger will always be flashing a map that is set up for say no boost leaks and similar altitude etc. This is where a pro tune(wide band) comes into play. You honestly won't feel the difference between 10.2:1 afr and 13.0:1 afr. And if you have a small intake or exhaust leak your actual fueling may be off by 10% or greater. I also have one hell of a hard time hearing det in the cab on a stock motor. Built motors even with say 100+ decibel exhaust it's almost always audible inside. All in all they have really worked hard and improved on the AP since i've been tuning, it's now I would say worth the investment. Even their base maps have come a long way! |

Jesse never gave me a slurpee, either.
He did give me a shoulder to cry on after my motor has melted down a third time (failed-super-crappy-side-feed-injector took it down). |
