Laloosh purchased his own AP. Laloosh is a known fly by night user. This time last year CPE was the worst company in the world, he pulled all his CPE s*** and sold it. Now CPE is the greatest thing sense sliced bread. He switches with the wind man and has lost almost all his forum respect. Just ask around.
He use to do good for the community, now I personally believe that the community is better off without him. He knows all and everyone else are idiots unless they agree with him. This includes people like Cobb and any other vendor he does not use.
He has a vested interest in CPE man. Don't forget that.
Laloosh actually got BANNED from this forum because of all the s*** he pulled with cp-e. Said it wouldn't hold a tune,blahblahblah...
I would hardly call a tune that was corresponded through emails "cobb's best".
The Standback and AP can tune all the same things, but the AP can also tune cam phasing a few other things... the standback cant tune more parameters than the AP is what I'm trying to say.
Laloosh told Christian what exactly he wanted it to do (have boost hit 20, taper to 17 or somethng, more timing advanced and a few other things) so christian did it, and laloosh was done. Christian could have kept going to get a more fine-tune and make more power, but he didnt.
Laloosh posted logs of 1/4 miles he did on the street, he said he had roughly the same et, but a slower trap, by about 3-4 mph. So that extra 40 hp isnt really doing that much. He says its all because of the traction and whatnot, but nobody really knows the truth. I guess he needs to go to the track and see how much different the times are.
He posted datalogs and in some parts of the run, there is considerably less timing on the accessport tune than on the standback tune.
He used meth on the standback tune, and not on the AP tune, Even the cooler boost temps alone would help quite a bit.
Laloosh has always talked s*** on cobb.
Laloosh used to talk massive s*** on cp-e.
All this proves is that a good tune makes more power than a not so good tune.
If I wanted, I could get christian to finetune a map for me, and I could go in and put as much care as Laloosh did on my standback tune as he did on his AP tune, and the power I make with the AP could blow the standback out of the water.
I do not believe any of the reasons I posted were crazy reasons, so dont even try to point at that. It's obvious in the way you talk you prefer cp-e. The fact is, both of these engine management solutions are really capable units, it's really hard to compare which one is better, they're targeted to a completely different audience right now, When the tuning software comes out, it'll be easier, but every aspect of the tune has to be similar between the two units. Laloosh's comparison wasn't really a fair comparison. He has a huge vested interest in a company he once hated, he hates the company he was comparing what he loves to, He didn't give cobb a fair chance, he ran meth on his standback tune. You are supposed to have 1 variable when you compare two things, and that 1 variable is the two different ems's. You're not supposed to compare 1 ems with no meth, with another ems with meth.
The fact is that the AP tune he dynoed wasnt as good as the tune on the standback,and that's that.
