Cobb unit
Why are users dumping their Cobb units ? The new version does the same thing right. the only aspect thats different is the bigger screen and gauges ??

They were one of the only flash tunes that you could flash yourself. Now shiv has released the open flash tablet and there is another flash about to come out that uses the bavarian technic cable and free software. So between those 2 and the new v3 about to be released a lot of users have sold their AP's

This. i was thinking about selling it for about 600 then upgrading to v3 rather then doing the trade in, but in the end i dont use the live monitoring enough to want to pay $300 for two extra guages.

At the end of the day they both have the same Off the shelf maps. If you are one to just plug in the cobb once and load up the tune and drive the V3 is not worth the extra expense (IMO unbiased).
Save yourself some coin if you dont need the bells and whistles and grab the V2 while supplies last. We are dumping all current inventory below our normal cost. If you want all the bells and whistles and the flashy looks of the V3 then you know what to do. On paper the V3 is a bigger screen, higher resolution, faster processing speed, and bunch of other things listed in the "highlights section" of the description. |

Can't you get custom tunes for the open flash tablet and free flash?

its pretty cool much better looking and feels more solid but I sat there and played around with it for probably 20 min after that i said to myself why ? gauges weren't that cool pretty damn small even when you displayed only 2 at a time . but to each there own if i was looking at a cobb definitely wait for the new version otherwise just not worth the money .150.00 upgrade maybe 400.00 + no way
