They seem to be obsessed with downpipes that don't set check engine lights, which makes no sense to me.

Is the newest 91 Octane stage 1 map still "v5 beta"? That's what I've been running for the past year with no problems but want to make sure there's not a newer map I should update to. Thanks!

Just got mine done last month, Top right bolt broke. Had to be drilled out. 2015 with 32k miles. Go into it expecting the top right bolt to be seized.

Get the grimmspeed hardware kit, don't question it, just get it.

Other than that, don't rush and make sure the 14mm (6 POINT!!!!!!!) socket lines up perfectly with the nuts

Propane torch and PB blaster are nice too

Mine came right off but I only have 11k on the car, only thing I ran into is there’s a heat shield covering the ac compressor that I had to take off and when I put it back on the holes didn’t line up cause the map flange and gs gasket is thicker, I had to rig it up. Anyone else have this problem?

Is anyone else having problems loading pages on their website? I'm getting a lot of "Page not found" errors.

It's because you didn't tighten the turbo studs enough. I had this issue the first time I installed it. But you could take it off and drill the hole bigger... probably what you did.

Dude. Nice. I think I will follow suite. Also, WRX on the top mount is sweet.

Default Fine knock

Hey, everyone

I currently have maperformance stage 2 set up in my car for about 2 weeks. I have been getting -1.41 or -2.81 at WOT, DAM stays at 1. I read a thread on Cobb's website to not worry about anything lower than -2.5 fine knock. Should I worry about this? Maybe send logs to Ian?

Definitely send logs to MAP asap. Knock at WOT is not good, especially 2.81.

2 counts of knock or higher at WOT is concerning on any Subaru. It's probably a fuel/octane issue (California has notoriously horrible gas), so I'd stay out of heavy throttle until MAP can confirm the issue. Good luck.

Yes, please send some logs so we can take a look. You may be a good candidate to test out our ACN 91 tunes we are working on....

Hey everyone! So I have voiced my opinions and concerns about our tuning options, and specifically our tuning support. I do believe there are some holes that need to be filled in order to continue to provide the best customer service we can. In a few months, I am going to be transferring into some type of full time "tuning support" roll. This will hopefully help with increasing turnaround time for tunes, and most importantly, turnaround time with logs etc. This will also give me a LOT more time to spend on the forums as well. I am pretty excited, and look forward to working close with you guys!
