I was wondering if there was a USB adapter that I could buy that would plug into the COBB V2B cable allowing me to bridge my laptop and my car? Basically I wanted to connect my laptop to my car and wanted to use the COBB cable. Is this possible?

It will not work. Just buy cheap D-can from ebay. And don't mess with Cobb cable.

Does anybody know how to properly measure time 0-60 using Cobb ap I've tried several times so when I'm accelerating hard from zero stop it shows nothing just symbols "-" when I'm accelerate slowly it shows the real time.
Any advice? |

But I am sure that's not the problem? Have you updated the firmware recently? Was told the latest update a few days ago was a glitch. If so go back to the previous version and try again Also, I am not sure, but maybe metric to standard could be an issue?

Well I tried different firmware already. And yes I was stopped at 0. The only time when it worked was when I reached the speed in normal driving not going WOT. Did you tried that feature did it worked? What is your ROM? |

Stupid question, but are you sure you got to 60. Sometimes people stop when they read 60 on the speedometer. The speedometer is not very accurate and reads high. trying going to higher speed and see if that helps.

But did you tried and did this work to you. I never saw that somebody would post video or photos of 0-60 time. Maybe it doesn't work at all? |

Well, been "gone" for a while but just did some more upgrades to the car recently and I just now downloaded all of the 402 maps (to include E30 and race). I have 100 octane pump available but I know race says 100+ and I would have a hard time actually getting a full tank of just 100 octane. I do think there is an E85 pump around here somewhere too. It looks like the E30 map might more power than the 100 octane race map? It would definitely be cheaper to blend E85 with 93 octane but I didn't know our fuel system would be able to handle it? I am FBO and completely catless. I guess, should I run the E30 map and just try to run about 1/2 E85 with 1/2 93 or should I get 100 octane and add some E85 to it and run the race map?
I know I could get a custom tune later, but I want to try something today ![]() Zeph |

I find it easier to blend since I have E85 available and is cheaper then race gas. You need 30% ethanol content, so do the math and fill your tank accordingly. Make sure not to have less then 30%... Log once you load the map to make sure all is good.

http://www.intercepteft.com/calc.html Remember, USA octane is RON+MON/2 = USA Octane, thus E85 is more like 96 USA Octane and of course 91 or 93 is 91 or 93 USA Octane. Make sure you log some good 3rd gear pulls and see how your car responds to the E30 MAPs. Not sure about this. where are you seeing this?

Yes, sorry for the incomplete statement. This issue is only when the data logs are full, when only using Boost as the on screen option. As for getting past that, is there plans to fix? I believe Chris (krim) on the COBB Forums was going to get back to me but i haven't heard anything. Its really no big deal, I use CAT's now.

Doesn't seem like it's particularly higher than normal...people buy and sell tunes all the time. I personally switched to Procede because I'm getting the Vishnu/FFTEC single turbo installed. That doesn't mean I didn't like my COBB, I just wanted a HP monster.

As skinrock said, people are always selling and buying. Some might be selling their car and moving on, others changing tunes etc...
In all cases, the amounts you see getting sold used is nothing compared to the amount being bought new. Its' perfectly normal ![]()
