fishbone Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Any of you close by? I'm looking for a trusty shop nearby to have all my Subie work done that I can't tackle myself and why not a local tuner as well. Thanks for your help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BAC5.2 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Cobb is in Plano. They recently did some work on a friend of mine's WRX and seemed to do a pretty good job.

fishbone Posted May 22, 2013 Author Share Posted May 22, 2013 That's pretty damn close, then! Good to know they're a nearby option, thanks! For some reason I thought they only had a presence in Austin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Not too far away, welcome to TX. AWD Tuning is out in Flower Mound if you're looking for another option. I've only had a clutch installed there, but they did do a great job and the turnaround time was quick. -Brandon 2007 Chevrolet Suburban LT3 1981 Chevrolet C10 LWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted June 12, 2013 Author Share Posted June 12, 2013 My sister is in DFW. I drive up there on rare occasions, maybe one of those times we'll have a chance to meet up. So 93 octane is pretty much everywhere around here, huh? That's awesome. In Lincoln NE it was only 91 and barely that. This is a great change as I am currently trying to determine if some FLKC is noise or not. Thus far it appears to be noise. No tune changes and still pulling -1.4 now and again. But, this is more for the tuning section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, this is more for the tuning section. Sounds good, bro. Just let me know Yep, only 93 around here. E85 is plentiful too. I found it funny that there's a 7-11 in Bedford that has 87, 89, 91, and 93. Honestly I'm still new to looking at tuning (LOL, a whole different world compared to the SER) so I can't help you there, but I'm interested in l learning what I can.

Shaunb62 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Just had my car tuned at Cobb - Plano. Calvin knows Subies and got what he could from my BNR 16G modded 5EAT car. E85 is available in the metroplex, but if you get out into the smaller towns it is not as readily found. Just keep that in mind if y'all gonna get an E85 tune without a backup 93 OCT tune. Oh yeah, welcome to Tejas! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted July 5, 2013 Author Share Posted July 5, 2013 How much does Cobb end up charging for a typical Stage 2 tune? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

islandborn Posted July 25, 2013 Share Posted July 25, 2013 Heck I drive all the way up to Plano for Calvin and Cobb to tinker with mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 I kinda want an open tune though. Still weighing in my options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Hmmm.... Does AWD leave theirs open? Seriously considering ditching the AP and going with something different. -Brandon 2007 Chevrolet Suburban LT3 1981 Chevrolet C10 LWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted July 26, 2013 Author Share Posted July 26, 2013 The only reason I still have the AP is for easy occasional datalogging and having it as a gauge. But if I get a really good tune dialed in I may dump it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted July 26, 2013 Share Posted July 26, 2013 Hmm... Yeah, I logged with mine back when I first got it, but that was really only to entertain myself since I was only Stage 1. Planning on installing the Stage 2 parts this weekend and of course the OTS Cobb maps are there, but just thinking of how much better custom tunes are is going to leave me wanting. -Brandon 2007 Chevrolet Suburban LT3 1981 Chevrolet C10 LWB Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fishbone Posted July 28, 2013 Author Share Posted July 28, 2013 You and I are going to be in the same boat. Right now I am running a conservative stage 2 tune and will be looking for an e-tune once I install my bcs and 15psi actuator. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted July 28, 2013 Share Posted July 28, 2013 Yep. Uppipe and downpipe are on. Going tomorrow to get the exhaust reworked. Flashed the Cobb 91 map (running 93, obviously) to be safe for now.

fishbone Posted July 29, 2013 Author Share Posted July 29, 2013 Have fun! I love badass Outbacks. In our Nebraska Subaru club we had a total sleeper, looked bone stock on the outside and IIRC was putting out close to 400hp. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sideways the Seven Posted July 29, 2013 Share Posted July 29, 2013 Nice! Honestly I was a bit Subie ignorant back when I had the SER because I thought the OB only came in H6 and 2.5i. Once I saw it was available with the turbo, I had to have one.

Shaunb62 Posted August 3, 2013 Share Posted August 3, 2013 Cobb Tuning -https://maps.google.com/maps?client=tablet-android-asus&ie=UTF-8&q=cobb+plano&fb=1&gl=us&hq=cobb&hnear=0x864c21da13c59513:0x62aa036489cd602b,Plano,+TX&cid=0,0,14768224586642100411&ei=BP38UYEeipmoAczdgagJ&ved=0CDcQ_BIwAA They tuned my Legacy after I added a BNR 16G, 1000cc Injector Dynamics injectors, and Grimmspeed EBCS. Calvin spent two hours mapping the entire RPM range at different boost levels. Ended up with two tunes accessible using the Sport and Sport# settings.

Scooby2.5 Posted January 3, 2014 Share Posted January 3, 2014 I guess it was you that moved from NE to Texas......Thought Id dig around and see.... By the way my outback XT was tuned by Calvin Dotson at Cobb Tuning Plano, thought you knew that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
