XEDE Engine Management System Available Soon!

there have been a few topics about cobb, and comparison threads regarding cobb VS xede capabilities on this forum if you search for them. they are two totally different systems in terms of how far you can go with each one and what each system can or cannot do. cobb has not been released yet either which makes talk of it compared to an actual released, tested and dynoed product speculation and not fact.

HI, Ken

Can you see the web? I can't. = ="

Hello Mark404040, you may not see it because we aren't suppose to list other websites etc. Just do a google seach for Cobb Tuning and search from there. The Access Port is a great piece. If it gets realeased anytime soon I'm sure someone will compare it to the Xede. Also I know allot of folks wan't the Xede, but they are waiting for them to release it with a Plug & Play harness. As of current you must splice into your harness. I can't see hacking into my harness. The dealer would cancel your warranty for sure if they caught that.

well, you can list other websites, certain ones are blocked at the admins discretion (other forums, etc).

i know everyone wants plug and play. it is a top priority and its a time consuming one. i could pull a promised release for it out of my rear end but frankly that would be wrong of me to do, seeing as we do not have a timetable for it honestly other than "soon".

(cool) Thanks for the Website information. Also on the Plug & Play harness as you know, it's better not to release a date. That will certainly prevent the "you said on bla bla bla date that XYZ" etc. So soon is GREAT!
 
I am impatient, but bugging people only makes it take longer.

Samuel L Jackson, "s*** doesn't just happen. s*** takes time...."
 
i too am in line for PnP...

if i dont spend the g's on something else first.

damn... and i havent even picked up the car yet... signed the paperwork and test drove it today...
 
Hey fellow Speed3ers whats up? I know we all are excited for the PnP XEDE. I will get one for sure. I just hope they produce enuff of them to go around for all who r interested and we all get them on the first time they r released.

timeframe for the Plug and Play is now officially set at 3 to 4 months we have all the parts on order from japan.
 
Quick question. Will PnP change the price? Time and effort to get parts, connectors, additional R&D, $$ etc....
 
it will cost more but we plan to drop/adjust the XEDE price accordingly to compensate

because the "tentative" pricing on the accessport is $700

there are a few key things about the accessport VS xede that must be said.

- the XEDE has control over more vehicle functions from the get-go than the cobb accessport.
- the XEDE is user tunable, the cobb is not user tunable at the $700 price tag. the price of the Cobb to make it user tunable brings it near the price of the XEDE.
- the XEDE does not overwrite the stock ECU. a dealer scantool could see that the stock ECU had been written/unwritten to. a removable XEDE would be undetectable. an installed XEDE could not be detected by a dealer scantool either.
- even when user tunable the cobb accessport does not have the same range of ability as the XEDE does feature to feature.
- the XEDE is out and proven. the accessport is not.

this is not a slam or dis on the cobb stuff by any means. they do excellent subaru work and always have! simply put, mazda ECUs are traditionally hard if not impossible to crack. cobb promised a mazdaspeed miata solution and it never materialized either. i look forward to a cobb system on this car and the 6, but i will wait for the system to show itself and its abilties before i praise it wholeheartedly.
 
Hey Capt I heard that COBB AND CPE allows throttle control. How important is this feature? Will this feature allow more power and torque compared to the XEDE system?

CPE allows you to monitor throttle position but they cannot currently control it, though they plan to. I do not believe Cobb has that feature even on the drawing boards.

there may be room to play with when it comes to controlling throttle plate position. we have been able to maintain no boost falloff and near seamless acceleration all the way to redline on the mazdaspeed6 with the XEDE.
 
Thanks for the updates. After coil overs next month (hopefully) I realy want some more power to play with this summer, or end of summer by your schedule.

We can basicaly "set and forget" on the Xede correct?
