Default ap suspicious question

i just bought an ap used from someone on nasioc and he sent me a message asking me:"Hey man if you coul do me a huge favor it would be great. When you get this and it's married to your ECU load the blue sti base map to your computer and send it to me and also load the final dyno 35r sti real time map and send that to me as well. " is that a normal thing to ask?

No, those are tunes for his previous/current setup. Send them to him. You have NOTHING to worry about

It's extremely suspicious...e-mail him back and tell him you've contacted the FBI and they will be monitoring him for the next 6 weeks to see if he can scam anyone else into sending him his maps back. HAHA J/K no worries.

No worries there. While you have it hooked up to the computer, it will give you a chance to download the latest firmware and maps from Cobb....
