Great news, but it looks like the ECU might need to be sent to Cobb to be unlocked. Hope that’s not the case.

So once unlocked the ECU, they can just tune our cars with OBD port? And easy reverse for dealer services?

I'm following this closely.

Want to know if they can lock the flash counter on the DME. BM3 does that with the F-Series DMEs, and it's awesome! Hoping something similar occurs with Porsche.
Wouldn't mind having to physically unlock my ECU, but would much rather go through the OBD port. Unfortunately, that's gonna require a boot loader leak...

Afaik no one can block the flash counter on the new DME. That would be theoretically appealing although if they (porsche) look hard enough they could tell a different ecu map was used.

The tune for 991.2 Carrera (not turbo models) will be released before the end of May. I saw an internal email direct from COBB and I am stoked as hell..

Can you remove the Cobb Accessport after flashing if you don't want to datalog? I just don't want it cluttering up my car.

Yes you can put it away.. Don't need to have it plugged in and on at all times.

Latest edition of Panorama (May) has a Cobb ad showing the Accessport for 991.2 Carrera and other models "...COMING SOON!".

"Keep an eye out on our social media page" They said. As of now they seem to be catering more to the Turbo/Turbo S crowd.

We should see something by the end of the month.

The ability to custom tune the car. Hopefully not too far away with E85 as well.
