Cobb AP and Sam to the rescue
Received and installed the Cobb AP with the PDK Update yesterday. Sam from ByDesign got it to me next day with plenty of info on how to do the install. This is my second AP, had one on a previous Pcar. Sam is great to do business with, very responsive as I was emailing him with several questions on Saturday. Great service to purchase and great follow up.
Installed the Stage 2, 93 ECU tune with the Sport PDK Update. Car was quick before now it’s crazy quick but very smooth on the Power delivery. PDK sport tune is perfect for me. Behavior of the car is maintained with great power improvements. Much better car to drive in normal or sport in auto as shifts come higher in the rpm range so the car feels more alive for normal driving but not stressed.
With the paddles in Sport the shifts are smooth and quick and if you push it the shifting is noticeably quicker. In Sport Plus if you get on it each shift is a smooth “kidney punch” as the car climbs up the speedo. Will drive it for a few days and then speak with Sam about any fine tuning.
It’s a great upgrade for an already great car.

So far loving this tune. Ran the PDK Relearn install. PDK smoothed right out. Shifting is smooth and quick, car is a beast.
Sam thanks for the hand holding.

It seems there must be more than one Sam, I'm talking to him on the phone while getting texts and emails from him all at the same time, now if he was just 3000 miles closer
