Why 3bar if only 16 psi? You must be shooting for like 28psi or something right

3bar absolute. If you're running 22psi (gauge) boost for example, that's actually 2.53 bar absolute. More than the normal MAP sensor can take.

I haven't been following cobb for some time now, but is Cobb now a viable option for full blown big turbo setups with different fuel injectors and map sensors?

I have a car that has both, currently on Eurodyne, and frankly the tuning situation sucks. Interested in input.

Absolutely. They opened the door for the rest of the great custom tuners out there to get their hands on our rides using their AP. I recommend checking out Stratified Tuning. I'm not biased at all [emoji106]

The car reads up to 23psi on its own. Actually your car can make more boost than the map sensor reads as i learned this as well from experience. Thats why I was asking about your end goal psi.

Your situation is actually where the most gains/driveability will be with custom tuning...especially if you're not happy with your current tuner.

I hit 23.2 PSI on my flash tune this morning. I have the stock map sensor. Is the extra .2 a false reading if it can only ready up to 23 PSI?

Must consider altitude level pressure. 14.7psi in 1 bar. 2.5 bar sensor = 36.7 psi. If you at sea level, 14.7 then car should be able to read 36.7 - 14.7 =22psi. Any other height and your car can detect (read) more (above sea) or less (below sea)

Are you planning on dynoing the car after the tune? I'm very curious to see what kind of numbers you get given your mod list looks almost identical to what I plan on installing in the next few months.

I will hopefully have the car on the dyno before the end of the year. Thinking in the November/December time frame. Local shop has a SuperFlow dyno. Shop likes to boast that their dyno is a "lie detector" test lol. Honestly more like a heart breaker because I was hoping for more power. Late November last year car made 305hp/299tq with the meth added. Hoping to beat those numbers. Literally the only changes between then and now are my wheels, the UB, corner balance, and now pro tuning in the works.

The tune right now just supports the 3 bar. Alex and I haven't gotten past the first set of data logging yet to really mess with boost. Think he has it still set to max out at 22 psi until he runs my data and tunes for more.The 16 psi I had mentioned earlier was just in reference to how little I was pushing the car with its first alteration of the tune. Feeling it out. Making sure things feel good. Experienced my first ever boost leak from loose vacuum line to boost gauge yesterday and that put a slight delay on getting logs. Trying to let the ECU refresh its data (although it happens so fast) and remember more frequently to turn off meth when I start the car. Not tuning for meth right now and I know I have forgotten to turn it off once or twice. No juice for the car yet until a 91 tune can be had.

Thanks for clarifying that for me!

I just installed my updated tune with brake boost and launch control. About 5 minutes after the install, I was driving on the highway when my EPC light turned on and the power was cut. So I pull over and turned the car off and on. And the car drove fine after that. So should I go back to my previous tune or was this just a glitch?

The new update for Cobb has break boost? Or is that something that Alex did for you?

Turbo muffler delete and new N75 fitted, you can hear the response between gears! Here's a video with some engine bay mic and crackle ear porn ;)
