Cobb Accessport 991.2 Turbo / Turbo S Release & E-Tuning!
Hey Rennlist,
As many of you know Cobb Tuning recently released support for Porsche 991.2 and 718 vehicles. What you might not know is that TSM is a Cobb master tuner and certified gold dealer. What that means is that not only can we provide you with tried and true Cobb products we can also handle all of your tuning needs as well. Whether it’s OTS maps, custom protunes on our AWD Dynojet, or remote tuning, we have all of your needs covered.
ACCESSPORT FOR PORSCHE 911 991.2 TURBO / TURBO S
The time is finally here! We are extremely excited to announce the availability of COBB Accessports for Porsche’s 718 Boxster/Cayman and 991.2 Carrera and 911 Turbo! This project has been in the works for quite some time as these cars share a completely new ECU and required the work of many engineers to dissect and understand. In the past weeks, we talked a bit about the power gains expected for each car. If you haven’t seen those yet feel free to take a gander! The flashing process for the ECUs in the 991.2 and 718 cars requires an extra step before the Accessport is able to communicate. ECUs will need to be shipped to COBB Tuning to be unlocked.
The in-cabin mountable Accessport V3 has a large, full color, high resolution screen which allows you to monitor up to six parameters in real time. Fully customizable from the look (multiple bezel colors), layout (set up a race, street or dyno gauge cluster) and mounting options (choose from 1,000s of standard vehicle mounts). Of course, all of the great COBB tuning is included - with enough space for 100 calibrations. This is your new Accessport - and maybe the last one you'll ever need.
Why?
The Accessport V3 is the world’s best selling, most flexible ECU upgrade solution for Porsche. Unlock power hidden within the vehicle by replacing conservative factory settings with more aggressive calibrations. Upgrade forever with off-the-shelf (OTS) calibrations for most bolt-on modifications. It’s the last engine management solution you’ll ever need.
Features:
Accessport for Porsche 911 991.2 Turbo / Turbo S
Larger, full color, higher resolution screen
Customizable multi-gauge display
In vehicle mount, with on/off switch
User-Customizable Start Up Screen
Interchangeable faceplates
How would you do a tune for track duty rather than straight line runs for a 991.2 TTS? I'd be happy with just a stage 1 to go with my Sharkwerks exhaust, but would hate to have additional heat soak.

good question sir!
Im replying from my phone so forgive any errors please.
I actually have pretty extensive data with this situation. I personally have tracked my 991 quite a bit and have found that most of the tunes out there certainly aren’t great for track use as much. The OTS maps that lots of people modify bring the torque/boost in so hard down low that it overloads the intercoolers amd creates all kinds of ill effects. Which would be one thing if it was an advantage but it’s not an advantage in any way on track.
The power then falls off up top which is where you want it and comes in way too harsh on the track ie mid corner, where you don’t want it.
The key for a road race car is linear usable power without creating crazy drive pressures down low that cause issues over the course of a multiple gear pull. You give up some of the “wow factor” in the torque hit but in the end you have a much much faster, happier all around car.
I hope that sheds some light on our theories and helps you in some way sir!

OK, I know it's hard to guaranty anything without doing it first, but what HP/torque range would you target for a track tuned car with Cobb and just exhaust?

I would say on our dyno a nice 580hp and 550tq would be about where I would leave a good road race tune. Most .2s baseline around 520 on our dyno to give you a reference.
Maybe a stupid question, but... do you need to leave the Accessport plugged in all the time, or can you just use it to reflash the ECU and remove it? I ask because on the website are a number of different faces for the Accessport and brackets/holders designed to mount it to car.

Once the tune is installed you can unplug the AP. Some keep it plugged to us the AP available gauges. I don’t need something else hanging of the dash.

As the other member said once the tune is installed you can put the programer in your bathroom cabinet if you would like
