Has anyone seen a
Cobb
OTS "Stage 2" tune for the
987.2
yet? Most of my searches point back to the
981
tune or posts of "coming soon". I'm about to pull the trigger on
exhaust
and IPD/TB and the OTS tune would be nice to throw in at the same time. I imagine there has to be one out there, especially since it's such a common mod combo, but not seeing any such map on the
Cobb
site/my
Accessport
. It'd be a lot easier than scheduling dedicated dyno tuning.
Little help?
Cobb
?
The
Cobb
Access Port will work on the
987.2
S model 3.4 DFI engine only, FYI. The
987.2
non-S model 2.9 non-DFI engine uses the "old style"
987.1
ECU
[
Bosch
, IIRC].

Not an issue, since I have an S. I'm already running the Stage 1 93oct tune, but am about to jump into headers/plenum territory.
Well, a little delay over the holidays, but finally got the EVOMSit tune file uploaded just now (Stage 2; 93 octane, Milltek
exhaust
&
BMC filter
) and, after an initial warm up and test drive around a country road, here are my initial seat-of-the-pants thoughts:
No issues flashing; the mod the easiest thing I've ever done since adding washer fluid or oil...
No CEL post-mortems;
Much crisper throttle response than stock--more akin to my '70 T w/ Webers;
VERY eager throughout the rev range;
Hair of sluggishness off the line is GONE--pulls like a bigger engine from 1000 on up to redline;
A bit more volume from the Milltek? Had the top down, so it may have just been that, but sounds GREAT! (Definitely recommend the Milltek for no drone motoring)
Will definitely require some more study and testing behind the wheel, LOL. Thanks to Sam and crew at Evolution Motorsports! Best, most satisfying $900 spent on any P-car, ever, and that includes the $20k I spent turning my '72 E into a 2.7 RS+ MFI monster--and now I have an OBDII diagnostic tool
There isn't an Off The Shelf
COBB
map for that but we'd be happy to work with you on a custom tune for your
Cayman
.
Where are you located?
When I got my
Cobb
(for a 2010 BS) I paid $250 or so more for a tune. I was adding
headers
, IPD, etc. at the time so my speed shop did all the work. As I recall, they drove it with the
Cobb
attached for data logging and performed several scenarios (hard accel, hard braking, medium accel etc etc). Then they pulled the info off the
Cobb
and sent it with spec info on the hardware updates (
headers
, IPD, etc) to
Cobb
.
Cobb
used that info to prepare a new
ECU
map; sent it back to my speed shop, and then they loaded it into the
ECU
. The info
Cobb
provided said this method is easy but maybe not quite as good as a dyno tune. I cannot find a dyno in the KC, MO area which can do a proper reading on a 2010 BS, so this was my best option.
From what my ears and my butt dyno say, it's a bargain.
Good luck, let us know what you decide to do.

I test components on our dyno all the time that people swear are better "seat of the pants" and they make the same or less power and accelerate slower on our dyno...
Is this your finding of the IPD as well?
Have you tested the (
Carnewal
) 200 cell cats on their own ie without muffler change?
We work on a lot of BWM and Subarus as well as Porsches and I just meant that in a general way. I find people are very attached to mods they pay for and feel power that may or may not actually be there.
We haven't tested a
Carnewal
system. But we'd be happy to.

Thanks for the honesty.
