Any input from Stage 2 ONLY maps (not + SF, MSCAI maps)

[steven88]

I am interested in getting some feedback from Stage 2 ONLY maps...not the +SF or +MSCAI maps...how are they running and are you hitting targeted boost and AFR?

Reason I'm asking is because I want to purchase an AP in the future...my current modifications are CP-E Catted DP, stock everything else...as we all know, the Cobb SF is on major back order and who knows when it will be back in stock....so that is why I am asking if my stock airbox + catted DP beast would work well with cobb AP?

Anybody have input? Thanks

We are not ignoring your post, just that I don't know of anyone with just a DP. I'd still recommend getting the AP in anticipation of the next map release. I have this DP and the COBB intake - and it's VERY good (I'm testing v103 now).

Anyone testing CP-E intakes with the AP?

From what I've read, you can use the Cobb non-intake maps for the CP-e intakes because it's maf doesn't change the readings significantly from the stock maf.

I just know that intake is one of the first modifications for this car...that would qualify you for stage 1 + SF or stage 1 + MSCAI....I doubt there are many users out there running stage 1 ONLY...or stage 2 ONLY....in my case, I am one of the rare users running just the downpipe...its cuz damn cobb intake is taking forever to release

I just wanted to get feedback from this map or if anybody ran similar settings before....cuz I heard of stories of stage 2 + SF + FMIC maps were shitty...well, at least for v1.02 it was

Hmmm. Don't know man but personally I would not try it with the stock airbox. Stock you're running 8's AFR's and toss on the DP I just can't see how your Trims would be good.

If you did run the AP, I would probably run a Stock config and not any of the Stage 2 configs. Others might disagree/agree /shrug.

[steven88]

well a full catted downpipe (cp-e) is a pretty big jump from stock...so I don't see why it can't be considered stage 2?

Well you did free up the exhaust but you still have the biggest restriction you can have on the intake side. You can call it stage 2 if you wish, but I would not. Get a CAI/SRi then yeah as you have then changed both the intake/exhaust.

The new maps change your AFR's and I'm not sure how lean you will get if you run stage 2 and still have the restriction of the intake track. However, you're free to take that risk if you wish. However, I would not unless I had a way to monitor my AFR's.

Put it too you this way. I run 12 to 12.5 with the 103 Maps. I have full Stage 2 with FMIC. If you run any leaner then you might hit 13's or so WOT and that will = detonation which could = popped engine.

So yeah, you can call it Stage 2, but I would not do so unless you can monitor your AFR's. Until then, I would run Stage 1 just to be safe.

Why the discussion?? There is a map for just the DP, and it is Stage 2. Go ahead and use it.
