Gaugint interest Cobb tuning handheld ECU flasher!

[TheBourneAltimatum]

Ok guys here's the deal...i found out about Cobbtuning who just recently cracked the uncrackable GT-R ecu. they make many products for suburu, mazda, and even some nissanshere's the deal if we can get enough people interested they might do this for us!if they made a handheld flasher for the outback and forester than there is no reason why they wont make it for an altimathese things cost $695, its a very sophisticated piece of equipment check out this link and see how easy it is to use on the Z CobbTuning.com - 350Z AccessPORT

this company is located in Salt lake city, Utah...so if any members here that live in utah you will qualify for a major discount on this product

and for those who are not sure what it does. it basically changer the whole ECU maps and comes with different maps and more that are downlaodable from their site. with this you can say bye byue to the limiter, you can adjust almost anything including your rev limiter. and restoring the setting back to factory is just with one click of a button so your warranty wont be in jeopardy

Also be advised that they might do this for us 2.5ers also

That seems pretty cool. Stillen is reportedly working on their QR Pro for our Altimas, so we might just have some choices to make.

the QR pro requires splicing your ECU cables and what not...i thought it was a flasher at first but its not....you cant raise the rev limiter in the stillen one and you cant remove the speed limiter...the accessport takes about 5 mins to unisnstall when you go to the dealer...the QR pro however isnt that easy to install and uninstall

[D-Roll]

Hmm interesting

[LongBeachCoupe]

Well ill be the first in the area to pick it up and gladly "rent out" to the locals in LI/NY area so we can get it cheap...

[II Knucklez II]

might be a dumb question but just want to make sure... i'm guessing that ECU is for CVT's. if not what could it do for the 6MT

Y would it only b for cvt's n it would change the ecu settings in the 6mt also it would take off the limiter/governor n do watever u want it to do. Like if u want better fuel economy or racing mode. It can change alot its like a dream come true lol

[dldjros69]

I would buy this or the QRPro

i trust stillen more than utah but whateva

STILLEN GROUP BUY......

[TheBourneAltimatum]

Most of these tuners are "vin# locked", to use it on another car you have to set yours back to stock. Once you put in the performance tune the unit can just be used to read codes..Some companies "hp tuners" let you buy credits for extra cars..

Now depending on the gains (dyno) and the effect on the CVT I may be interested

subaru guys borrow accessports from eachother all the time

[dldjros69]

I would like to do this to my car, but 1950 is crazy.

I would have to drive up to see LBC all the time.

I would def rent it from you lol, how much will you charge.

[TheBourneAltimatum]

ok guys.this is going to be done, but they are currently working on completing tuning for the GT-R and other models. he said R&D for the altima will start as soon as they are done with the other cars. probably in 3-4 months

HAHAHAHA NICE.

[tuffmag]

My question is...should I read the FAQ on the website? LOL...

I had an ECU upgrade via software on my MINI Cooper S and you could get up dates for each mod you added/changed. However that cost for each upgrade after 12 months.

Will this device allow you to change the settings anytime you make mods?

Been a whole month. Any updates?

[TheBourneAltimatum]

[ADKSaad1387]

dude, i was talking about this a year ago back on the other forum

my buddy had it for his WRX and he sold his.he said with the rising gas prices he couldnt afford to have worse MPG rates

still a sweet product though

Wouldn't this reflash have the ability to change the settings to a "gas saver" mode??? I was talking to my friend which had a similar product in his STI and he said he was able to change from "Sport" to "Gas Saver" mode. This is probably done by adjusting the fuel to air ratio.
