    With only a catback exhaust installed, the stage 1 OTS tune seemed like the best choice right after I installed the Accessport.....

    Install an intake and that’s when you’ll really notice a power & sound difference.
    Wooshie turbo sounds are amazing but I also recommend a cat back exhaust (personally have an Invidia Q300) and it’s a perfect set up (still stock downpipe)
    Basically give the car new lungs and tune it.. you’ll be amazed at the different in driveability

    You didn't even mention the Rev hang or how different the throttle response feels. I really dislike the stock tune throttle and running the Cobb Stage 1 feels so much better. Also i get better MPG with the tune but that could also be because I'm a better driver.

    I've been running the MaPerformance for a while and alot of my friends have for years with that tune and no problems and no knock . 2nd I have that mount your talking about. first thing I can tell you about it is that the one they sell on their site is not how it looks when it comes. 2nd the magnet will fall off in a few days. so I had to get some better glue and Re glue it. also my mpg stayed the same if not a little better with that tune. just my opinion . that mount is pretty easy to install and it looks more one2for sure.

    Hey man thanks for the vid, so did you get the Cobb v3 access port? And it comes with a bunch of tunes? I heard you have to buy tunes separate....IDK

    • @VIXREX
      @VIXREX  5 років тому +1

      Yes that’s the one I got. On their site you can see the tunes. The Cobb tunes are free but the Mishimoto and other custom tunes cost money. Lowest was about $24 i think.

    like others have said the M.A.P. tune is better. i ran the cobb tune for a week and went to the other tune. My .02 is save some money in case you break something and get a j pipe a boost controller and air oil separator and finally a pro tune. again my opinion. by the way i dont keep my accessport in my car ever. good luck.

    Great explanation. I was so discouraged after my first week with my '17 and finding out I had a brz at anything above 4k rpms. Glad to hear stage one fixes that. However, I'm still on the fence considering I doubt I'd get pro tuned anytime soon. How long do you plan on staying with the ots tune and do you think it's alright to go maybe 5-10k miles on it?

    • @VIXREX
      @VIXREX  5 років тому

      So I’m staying with the OTS not ok much longer. More parts coming in so gotta time accordingly. I’ve had it for about 1-2k miles and no issues so far. Didn’t plan on running it that long so i don’t know the effects but I swear I’ve read that some people run it all the time for a while just fine

I might get a beater corolla or something in case I run into issue but that's a stupid ass way to spend money.
