Intakes - Cobb Tip of the day!

What this means to you:
- One of the most important things you will want to do after you install a properly designed aftermarket
intake system is to reset the ECU and drive at very light loads for extended periods of time after the
installation. Resetting the ECU will erase any STFT and LTFT values which will allow the ECU to start
making compensatory corrections to the fueling calculations.
- Immediately after starting your vehicle, the fuel trims are usually not active. The ECU must heat the
HEGO sensor and make sure various sensors complete system checks before the system is activated.
- The accuracy of all input triggers is critical. Using piggy-back devices that skew these triggers does
not allow the ECU to calculate the proper timing of fuel injection or ignition operations. This is critical
when trying to calculate fuel injection windows and ignition timing on a DISI engine!

More Cobb Vs. CP-e garbage. Funny how a Cobb tip trashes a CP-e product. I'd love to see the info on this gem. Feel free to post it.
 
While both put out great products I have some things to say...don't take me seriously..nobody does.

- CPE Products are overpriced (Some will argue about that I'm sure.)
- CPE has shown more dedication to our cars than what COBB has..at least for the MS6 so I give them credit for that.

As for whos better its really a matter of opinion & it also depends what car you own.
 
all about personal prefranses. personaly not the biggest fan of piggyback systems beacuse when you feed the computer crap (bad info) it tends to give out crap. generalazation im not saying cpe is crap im just saying you give the computer the wrong info and it responds by doing the wrong things sometimes. and also im not the biggest fan of cutting into my wire harnsess especcialy on a new car with a warrenty. seen some frinds get it royaly up the arse for that on other cars.

I like how every other post is either misinformation or an outright bash in this thread.
 
I say, buy with the future in mind. If you want an AP, but the cobb part. Unless you want to wait for the custome tunn application. Buy the CPE if you want the standback.

SIMPLE!!! They are both good companies and good parts
