Cobb DP vs Harman Motive DP

tro8 · 04-14-2008, 02:59 PM

both look about the exact same and both offer the bellmouth... i know the o2 sensor placement on the cobb is very easy to get too, but now sure on the HM?? The Cobb DP, i ordered from cobb is on backorder for 4 weeks... I'm thinken i might cancel the order and get the whole TBE from HM.... or should i just wait and continue to drive in silence??.... mmmm??

Well, I can tell you that in Cali, my STI with the Cobb DP & Stage 2 map is running at pro-tune levels, per Harman Motive! This may or may not be the case if I run the HM DP but I can attest to Cobb's DP. Your results may also vary because we are running different maps. I say get the one you want and don't let a relatively short wait decide for you.

I would kick myself in the rear if I switched up my order and figured out I would have rather stuck to the one I had bought.

Just be sure before switching orders

I have the harman TBE and i love it. I think you should get it.

the quote ...."the Cobb DP & Stage 2 map is running at pro-tune levels, per Harman Motive! " says alot i think... i might just wait for the one i have comming....

I know ETS is comming out with different systems for the STI soon. Their work is top notch. I had cobb products on my last STi and like them a lot too

i just want to put it on my car so i can make the stupid ricers run away with their tails up their arses. im tired of this punk with an MR2 chasing me down everywhere trying to race me.... cant wait to see his face the first time i rev back with the exhaust on.

The difference as far as I know is:
The Cobb DP outlet tapers down from 3" to 2.5" to connect to the stock CBE (at least it is for the 08 WRX).
The HM is a full 3".

Either way you are getting great quality parts.. both are dyno tested and both are great companys...
