Tomorrow, transmission fluid change.

ha, yeah, the bosch "foil"
whatever you do? don't hit the washer button over 3 mph!

Talking

Lately i helped a buddy tune his 996 Turbo to the first significant stage and he is looking for real seat of the pants change. We proceeded with some parts changes and had his ECU sent in for a remap. Time to install and test.

Have you guys done this ? what type of results have you experienced ?

why would you send out the ecu? just flash it yourself check out cobb.
sorry but the guy in the video sounds like a moron. why is a Lambo owner who does no work on cars describing what a mechanic is doing on the mechanic's car? and why remove cats on a street car.
amateur hour. I guess anyone can post on youtube.

Does the Cobb have to be plugged in to function? Or can you load the "tune" into the ECU and remove the Cobb?

You flash the tune then box up the Cobb Accessport and store it - or you can use it to datalog if you want.

We are really fortunate to have several top-notch tuners on this forum that can not only 'flash' an ecu (and without removing it and sending it in), but tune it to perfection and recommend the right upgrades in the right order.

The guy on the video was NOT one of those expert tuners...

you remove the cats on a street car because catless allows for better spool and the less restrictive exhaust you have the more power you can create from the turbos. not an amatuer hr but actually a power upgrade. maybe you shouldnt comment on something you may not understand at all
