Yeah, I know that.

There are several MPS owners in perth who have taken a "COBB Generic MPS 3 98oct" Map and tweaked it between themselves to get the most out of it, plus I have had a few conversations with Mao about COBB tuning, also a lot of guys in Perth have used the "off the shelf" maps and made considerable gains.

COBB "off the shelf" maps maps are designed to be on the safe side (no extreme boost levels, timing is conservative, etc) thus why a COBB tune only nets 10% power and 15-20% torque.

ECUTEK is expensive and there isn't a designated shop in Perth who tunes MPS's, lots of places over east, but Perth there is sweet-F-all. Thus the COBB is the logical answer.
