N00b question about Cobb AP

scotianmotion · 05-11-2008, 08:58 AM

For Stage 2 , does the Cobb Ap work fine with downpipe cat back and CAI?
sorry i am new and wanted to know if CAI is supported with Cobb AP ..as i've read stage 2 is TBE or downpipe and catback ?? is this correct? wasn't sure with CAI if something else needed or if all good with cobb ap ?..i apologize if this is obvious....are there options or something on the cobb ap that you chose when programming??...thanks again for any input

"stage 2" is considered downpipe and a your AP. catback is not necessary but recommended. if you do some searching you should find that a cai may be more beneficial with a protune.

Dont use any intake w/ stage 2 off the shelf, you need a freer flowing downpipe, but in the map notes it tells you to use the OEM air box

On the ap you can choose you're octane, and stage map. exm..stage1, stage2, stage1-91oct, stage2-91oct...stage1-93oct, stage2-93oct. both of which have an acn option(arizona,california, nevada). which are speficic for those states. Good lcuk!

So Stage 2 map will work with a downpipe alone? Catback isn't needed? The map notes say "to be used with TBE".

yeah a TBE is highly recommended, but there are people running the OEM catback.

sorry for probably a stupid question ...but do you have to do a stage 1 b4 doing a stage 2 ..or can you just go right to stage 2 providing you have proper setup....i'm assuming you can go right to stage 2 ..just wanted to confiem

Install the downpipe and/or exhaust and flash to stage 2. Stage 1 is not required before stage 2.
