followed by LOL (must be in caps)
and wait for adult men to go waaaaaah.
I'm stuck on APR 2.4.
I don't really notice any aspects/elements that would cause me to change tuners. I envy the crackle tune though. I ordered a new catback from Cobb today to fix my noise problem.

Well, fun start to life with Cobb. Loaded 93 OTS tune, standard not high boost. Was leaving work today and car broke up at ~5k rpm, CEL flashing and then EPC light and limp mode. Got to park long area and shut it off. Starts up but idles rough and still seemingly in limp mode.
Unfortunately I took the accessport out of the car last night so it is on my table at home and not in my car at this moment.
Thoughts?

Is the light on steadily? If so use the accessport to read the codes. Sounds like it could be misfires, stock coils and plugs? How many miles?

Stock coils and plugs, 68k miles. CEL solid. Unfortunately at the time being the AP is at home 45 min away.

You could probably at least pull to coils out to see if they are visibly bad. Is it drive able enough to limp home?

It sounds like you likely blew a coil. I'm not sure going back to a stock tune would help with that at all.
I had the same thing happen to me the first day my car was tuned. I had to have somebody pick me up and drive me to napa so I could buy plugs, coils, and tools.

Did you end up just replaccing all the coils and plugs? Did you just run stock?

I was so flustered by the whole thing I didn't even think to try changing it to a stock tune, so I changed coils and plugs.

If you're gonna replace coils and have the time to wait go with red top ones
