Technosquare or CobbTuning?

I have a 6mt with a Stillen exhaust, and am planning to get HFC's as well, but I wanted to know what people think about either of these two items.

Cobb is easily reversable and wont be detected at all by the dealer though i have heard that TS can not be detected as well, so for each their own...

perfect example of "to each his own" me and my buddy him g37 me g35 all identical mods... he's getting the cobb.. i'm TS. =) .... this response doesn't help your answer much. but go with the cobb if you like to play around with maps, and have a cool gadget you can show off with. as far as the money factor TS is the best bang for you buck

ya i have TS and it cant be detected by the dealer but a good thing about TS is that they can tune your car with any mods u have on your car. With cobb tuning, u need to have your stock intakes and its a must that u do.
But TS can work around that

Honda Accord
Add Osiris to the mix. They should be available in about 1.5~2 months.

BS. You're dealer just knows nothing about ECUs... If it's a reflash, it can be detected if the person knows what to look for.

Cobb is in the works for our cars, I like the option to be able to mess with maps and set to stock if you had problems before taking into dealer. Technosquare is a small company here and I felt VERY difficult to deal with. I have not heard anything about a stock intake for Cobb... they are testing on my car and I DO NOT have a stock intake...

what would be the use of cobb if you couldn't use aftermarket intakes? isn't that what you're trying to do...not let it run lean or rich and fix the A/F ratio...or am i missing something here?

ummm my dealer, if u had the cobb ecu reflash im sure YOU'RE DEALER would find it too but they wouldn't cuz they only keep track of all the sensors on the car, not what maps are in the computer.



well guys i went onto the site and when i was checking out the updates for the G37, they said u must have a stock intake. I dno, sorta weird

Looks like the access port from Cobb is available. How do we get the stage 2?
