This is why cobb states it is okay to run their tune on a 335i with stock exhaust and not okay to do the same on a 135i with stock exhaust.

Yuchi is a personal friend of mine, So i'd know better about her car than most people on here. I have JB4, DCI, fmic, and downpipes. I was on map 7 (98 octane and 16.5 psi), our cars are very similar in terms of speed with her maybe edging out way up top. Her 135i has the same mods as my 335i, except she has an aftermarket catback exhaust and is running the COBB stage 2+fmic aggressive tune on 93 octane. Her car hits about 18 psi. So by no means is the JB4 "Weak" as you claim.

You also claim that terrys customer service is bad. He helped you by referring you to links with all the information and suggested solutions you needed to resolve the problem you had. He isn't superman. All you had to do was READ. So because you didnt feel like reading or putting a little effort towards solving your problem, his customer service is bad? Nah, I don't think so.

Also, stop bashing tunes after you buy and then sell them. If you dont like a tune , fine, but dont go out of your way to bash or emphasize how "bad" it is to you.
Your wrong,the 135 does make more power due to the weight.The lighter you are,the more power the car makes.Its commen sense .now,as far as the jb4 being compete junk I never said this .

I have been in the game for years and had over 10 turbo cars ranging from custom tunes ,self tunes ,and pro tunes.If you try to compare this tune to a Cobb ,you simply can't ! It out spools it and makes more power in every rpm more then the jb4.

A form is entitled to options and reviews .Just because you have the jb4 doesn't make it the best.I had it ,and of it was I would have never had sold it.The jb4 is Budget tune with a kick,but for the money it ok.

You might have thought his customer service is top,but I don't.I had emailed back and fourth for things ,with him responding useless help most of them being a link without even having a proper link attached.He basically g. L finding it.

Now I know ,if there's no number to contact a company you'll never have the best support.These companys with no contact numbers are fly by night .

WRONG

HP = TQ + RPM/5252
TQ = r * F

Sorry my friend, weight of the car has nothing to do with the output of the motor. It has an effect on the performance of the car at a given power level, but definately no effect on the output of the motor.

"You might think that an engine removed from a heavy car and placed in a light car might produce more horsepower, in fact, because A=F/M the acceleration will increase at the same rate as the mass is reduced, resulting in a constant horsepower."

LOL. Didn't I say I was going to buy a cobb accessport? 10 turbo cars and years of experiance would have produced a better response lol.

Anyways, ATR is going to be awesome. I can't wait to get the ap. Loading/switching maps is prob my fav aspect of the tune!, So easy, even a caveman can do it!

Even if you're right, and I'm not saying you are, the car would have to be in motion for weight to play a difference; however, for dyno pulls, weight isn’t a factor in making MORE power.

This is the funniest thing I ever read. Maybe a basic physics class will clear things up.

, you should be banned from the Internet. Your lack of basic engine and tuning understanding is unbelievable. And you're barely literate. Bad combo.

Lighter weight != more horsepower. That's why you adjust road dyno software for the weight of the vehicle.

Lighter weight = more useable horsepower. Even that's not even entirely accurate. But, less mass to move means the horsepower of your engine can move your lighter vehicle through space faster. That doesn't mean WHP is higher.

This is a great thread about Cobb's software, firmware, and upcoming releases. It could do without your trolling.

I have two cars with N54's... If I buy ONE Cobb AP unit, may I flash both car's ECU's successfully without having to keep the Cobb AP unit in either car at any time. Theoretically once the ecu is flash, it doesn't require the Cobb AP unit to be connected at all times, correct?

thanks

No

Unless you enjoy uninstalling and reinstalling for every drive.

The AP needs to be unmarried (uninstall software) from one AR before it can be flashed on another...
