COBB ACCESSPORT | SUBARU | WRX | 2015-2021 | REVIEW | UNBOX | PERFORMANCE TEST

[@crackedbrainOG]

Did this same thing on my 21 wrx. It’s not going to blow you away, it does make the power band better and drivability improves. Slight power increase also feels good. Like the video says, like stock but better. Even if you don’t want to do anything to your wrx this Cobb ots tune is well worth it.

[@ImportImageRacing]

Would totally agree. Its a nice little bump in performance from the OTS map. The real win comes from other add on's like live monitoring, code reading, launch control, flat foot shifting! Its also the gateway to allow future upgrades and protunes for the vehicle.

[@ericiidx]

This was a must for me! Was not a fan of how the car felt from the factory. Now, a nice smooth powerband, and a throttle my foot can really learn.

[@ImportImageRacing]

Absolutely correct! You can’t go wrong with the AccessPort. Much smoother power delivery, coupled with everyday drive ability.

[@tamwoof]

congrats on the new PB!

[@ImportImageRacing]

Thank you! I knew we could do it! 🤘🏻🤩💪🏼🥳

[@IanMM88]

Thank you so much for this video! I just got the access port for my 2024 WRX TR and am clueless and haven't installed it yet. Any and all info is much appreciated!

[@cctrans29]

I want to get a Grimspeed TMIC, charge pipe and inlet soon. But for now doing exactly this. Access port and Cobb 93 tune. With my IAG AOS and cat back exhaust.

[@ImportImageRacing]

All great choices! Keep up the great work! 🤘🏻

[@TheCodeMonk]

Loving this! I’m waiting on a couple more years of warranty before I look at the access port for my 21 wrx and have really loved seeing each step of this journey!

[@ImportImageRacing]

Thank you for your comment! We strive to bring you great content. It’s only beginning!

What brand and model battery tender did you use in this video?

[@johnamante.1c]

I have a 2018 wrx stock everything except the cat back with 80k miles . Installing the AP should be okay or do I have to worry about other things before installing it

[@Silbaru]

Do you really need to put a battery charger while tuning? I have a 18 Sti, Thanks!

[@ImportImageRacing]

@@Silbaru it could save you an ecu. Cheap insurance

[@TheWretchedSpawn]

If you have a catback do you still say stock exhaust on the Cobb device?

[@autodriven]

Unleashed the power on my 2010 WRX with a custom stage 2 E Tune 💪🏽

[@kevforce44]

Hi I just put the Cobb stage 1 + bigSF on my wrx 2016 I did it all great but since I started it he has a rough idle my a/c clutch is hitting hard and all the lights in the dash are on can you help me ( I installed it today 03/06/2024) thank you

[@ImportImageRacing]

Are you sure you have the “big sf” intake and not the “sf” intake?

[@kevforce44]

@@ImportImageRacing I made a mistake yeah I have the sf but I put the big sf ( I speak French ) so I flashe my car to the oem tuning and did the real good tuning and I got the same problem my codes are p0102 and p0113 maf sensor circuit low input and intake sensor temp circuit high

[@CourtesyToot]

Is there much benefit to running a Cusco rear end or IAG motor mounts, for street driving? looking for better grip and less engine movement...

[@ImportImageRacing]

ABSOLUTELY! We will be doing a video on something like this in the near future!

[@cctrans29]

Question. Can I use that 93 octane tune you downloaded on my 2018 WRX that has a cat back exhaust? Or is there a tune in the access port that accounts for a cat back exhaust?

[@ImportImageRacing]

That will absolutely work fine :)

[@marleneduke6390]

Which strut bar is that? I like it! 👍🏻 I was looking at the aem red wrinkle for $345

[@ImportImageRacing]

Ours is the Nameless Front Strut Bar, it’s a better choice for the money! www.importimageracing.com/products/nameless-front-strut-tower-brace-subaru-wrx-2015-2021-sti-2015-2021-wrinkle-red-fstb-c-red-sub-15wrx

now do one on features like launch control etc.

🤩🤩🤩

[@lenate9540]

i don’t got any outgoing mods only except for a COBB turbo inlet, and cat back exhaust. am i still able to use a access port or ots map?

[@ImportImageRacing]

Cobb recommends that the car stay stock if using a OTS stage1 map. I have a turbo inlet on my 21 WRX, as well as a Noble Ti Exhaust system..... and I get away with it! My suggestion is to email [e-mail] for a better conversation and further understanding of how the maps work and what is required.

[@whiskiewolf4609]

Thanks Jim

[@ImportImageRacing]

You can count on me! 🤘🏼🤩🤘🏼

[@IanMM88]

I don't understand what that lead was that you used. Can you please explain that a little?

[@justinbjorum620]

That is simply a battery charger. If your battery dies while tuning it can ruin the module.

[@IanMM88]

@justinbjorum620 thanks I figured it out and got it installed with no problems.

[@PedroAlmeida-w3o]

Question. I already installed my intake last summer, this summer I want to buy a Cobb accessport for a Stage 1 tune. Am I still able to find the right map even with an after market intake installed already?

[@ImportImageRacing]

If you went with the Cobb SF intake, then yes!

[@PedroAlmeida-w3o]

@@ImportImageRacing i unfortunately did not. I went with the aem.

[@PedroAlmeida-w3o]

@@ImportImageRacing will I be able to still add the tune without any problems or should I not recommend it at this rate since I already have another intake installed?

[@ImportImageRacing]

@@PedroAlmeida-w3o you have a few options.. You could revert back to the stock intake and add the Cobb stage1 map. The performance results you’ll see with the AccessPort will far outweigh those of the intake. OR, you can combine the AccessPort and the intake with a custom Clark Turner Tune for MAXIMUM results! www.importimageracing.com/products/ctt-custom-protune-single-fuel-subaru-wrx-2002-2022-sti-2004-2021-ctt-001

[@mrmuzz5431]

If I buy one. And have all the parts eg: intake/turbo back exhaust, (including adding unequal headers) and a TM or FM cooler, will one of the pre installed tunes suit my mods?

[@ImportImageRacing]

Unfortunately not. The Cobb AP only comes with preloaded maps that fit a stock car OR a car equipped with parts from their Cobb Power Packs. A custom tune is required with any and all additional performance modifications.

[@vrdntfitness]

Is the Cobb ots tune more reliable than a stock tune?

[@ImportImageRacing]

“more reliable” is going to be a big ask… Give any turbo charged vehicle, more boost, more fuel and more timing rarely makes it MORE reliable! 😂 But a good OTS map can go a long way and still be suitable for a long time.

[@vrdntfitness]

@@ImportImageRacing would you say the Cobb tune is good then 😂

Nice wheels, i dig the 5 spoke design. I run the enkei ts5's
