I'm a little more convinced that the aftermarket just gave it the regular treatment. Another question though... Is the effect produced only produced on a "Stage 1" car? Or does it top out here?

On any tune, I did the testing with Cobb Stage 1 as you already know and we discussed on the thread when I was with MAPerformance. I did a full Protune after the turbo back testing and only gained 2 peak hp over what I posted on the previous page. I wanted it to work, as a manufacturer at the time I REALLY wanted it to work but I won't sell a product that can't prove it has any benefit. Even now, with no ties to any company that produces products I still don't recommend it.

I remember it... I think I was asking how much power is still available with say, intake, intercooler and CBE and protune. Did we talk about that too? Idk, man. I'm going to sleep before I confuse anyone or myself or something.

COBB discusses tuning with Adam Brunson at SEMA

FYI...

COBB discusses tuning with Adam (Tune+) - Adam's interview begins ~ @9:56 min into the video...

"Today we (COBB) get a chance to speak with two of the many Tuners that make it all possible! Get a little insight on their backgrounds and approaches to their craft!"

Does $75 dollar tune include the performance as well as new economy slot 2 tune? And can you do the Casper cam tune on that one too?

Single tune is only one file, no revisions unless it is needed after looking at the log. There is power left on the table in almost every case. Per my website the Casper can be applied to any tune file, even cobb OTS maps.

Sorry....so you'd be using your Tune in slot 1 and still Cobbs economy tune slot 2.

My power tune will be in Slot 1. Then slot 2 and 3 will be reduced boost. My Economy tune isn't available unless you have an E-tune.

Yea, they sent out release notes to ProTuners about 10 minutes ago LOL!

Sounds like I'll be making a wallpaper for all my customers to download today.

Adam, I haven't used your services yet, but I want to thank you for how many questions you answer here, free of charge. I'm incredibly ignorant/new to tuning, so reading all these threads helps me wrap my head around upgrade paths a little easier, and frankly sells me on using your services/products in the future.
