Default Access Port for DBW Subies

Ok I have been speaking and emailing guys at Perrin and Cobb Tuning in the USA about buying their AP for my Libo. Their newest one suits CAN base Drive by Wire cars. While the fuel maps maybe an issue because of different fuel available in the USA vs Aust, the rest should be same same I am hoping. Can any of you ecu gurus tell me if you see any other issues with this for AUS DBW Subies?

What we need is the street or pro tuner version of AP so we can get our own tuner to do the business - I have asked Cobb for a price on this and am awaiting a response.

Customer in Oz: Mr Cobb/Perrin...my car's not running properly...something wrong with the tune I think..

Mr Perrin/Cobb in USA: It can't be my software because it's proven here in the good ol' US of A....we've never had that problem here....must be the way your tuner set it up...go have a talk with him

Tuner in WA: I've done the best I can...if there are any issues it must be the software...best you talk to Mr Perrin/Cobb....


...and so the circle is drawn.... with the $70 k car in the middle......

Thanks Nauli, o yea of little faith! Guess there is always going to be the issue with your tuner vs software but hey the same thing happened with Ecutek in the past. If you want to play then you have to be prepared to pay. I can only speak highly of Access Port and Cobb Tuning and I speak from experience.
