02 WRX - Tuning for header and up pipe

subieguy2 · 10-22-2008, 08:41 AM

I am new to tuning and am very timid about it. I am currently running the 16G OTS map for the version 2 AP. I just installed my header and up pipe a while back. I am wanting to tune my car so my power band isn't so high....and I would also like to up the boost to about 22psi.

Anyone have any helpful tips about how to go about this?

I have read the romraider info 50 times over....and same with the tuning help files with the AccessTuner software.

I am still timid about moving forward because although I have read a lot...I am worried I will do something soooo wrong.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

I have requested COBB to consider making a 16G stage 2 map or something so people running headers could use another great OTS map from COBB...but haven't had any luck getting them to pull the trigger on it.
