At Velocity Factor, we always recommend getting a proper tune to match any modification to your car. There are many tuning options available, but we are firm believers that Cobb Tuning has developed a product that works exceptionally well, is easy to use, and most importantly, is reliable and safe to use on your car. The Cobb AccessPort can even be used on a completely stock vehicle to maximize the performance of the car that you already have. As your car progresses and you continue to modify it, the Cobb AccessPort can be used to maximize the performance of your new parts. When modifications are performed on your vehicle, the Cobb AccessPort is used to flash the ECU with new maps that have been precisely designed to complement the specific mods you have chosen. This serves to maximize the power gained from your new components and to ensure that they operate in a safe and reliable manner.
For Instance, if you where to install a down-pipe onto a MazdaSpeed 3 or a Subaru STI, you might get something called “boost creep”. Boost creep is when the turbo spools up too much and makes more boost than it is supposed to. If the ECU is not flashed with the proper tune to account for this drastic increase in airflow, it can lead to significant problems. The ECU will be adding fuel at the wrong spots and timing will be wrong as well. This can lead to problems such as detonation, which can seriously damage your engine. However, if after installing your down-pipe the ECU is flashed using the Cobb AccessPort, this won’t be a problem. With an ECU flash that has been properly calibrated for your mods, the car will have the proper fueling and timing, over boost and boost creep will not be an issue, and the Check Engine Light will not turn on. With a Cobb AccessPort you will feel comfortable and confident knowing that you can step on the gas as hard as you want, and the car will not break.
At velocity Factor, we have been using the Cobb AccessPort since they came out, when they were still a big Atari-looking box. Ever since, we have had nothing but great success with the Cobb AccessPort and all the other Cobb Tuning products. We wish they would make Cobb AccessPorts for more cars. If it is available for your vehicle, we can assure you that you will be happy with the product.
We invite you to try the Cobb AccessPort, the very best hand-held tuning solution for your car. The Cobb AccessPort allows you to maximize the performance and safety of your vehicle, at any level of modification. You can even flash the ECU back to stock yourself, without having to go anywhere. The Cobb AccessPort also gives you the versatility of live data and data logging. Live data allows you to see everything you need right on the screen, and the data logging lets you record your car’s performance. You will be able to see vital information such as the exact boost, air fuel ratio, and exact timing pool in real-time. With data logging, you can save all this data for later analysis. This allows you to monitor your car’s performance long term, identify potential problems before they become a real problem, and create optimized tunes that are tailored to your specific car and driving style.

POWER. FLEXIBILITY. CONTROL. The Cobb AccessPORT is the industry leading OEM ECU flashing, managing and monitoring assistant. Unlock power hidden within the ECU by replacing conservative factory settings with more aggressive calibrations. The result is impressive gains in torque and horsepower while maintaining a high degree of safety. The Cobb AccessPORT comes with pre-installed maps that are optimized for common performance modifications.
Tuning flexibility ranges from simply loading one of the included performance maps designed for common modifications, all the way to complete custom map authoring using our powerful Cobb AccessTUNER software. Extract maximum power from virtually any modification while retaining the driveability and sophistication inherent in the OEM ECU.
Unlike other tuning options, the Cobb AccessPORT is truly unique in its capabilities that go far beyond typical “chipping” or “re flashing” solutions. This is where the Cobb AccessPORT clearly stands out from the competition:
- Simple Installation – Just about anyone with even the most basic of automotive knowledge can quickly and easily install a Cobb AccessPORT. No computers, wire cutting/splicing or tools of any kind are required.
- Base Maps – COBB Tuning provides several preloaded maps for common power modifications. Each base map is dyno developed and rigorously tested in multiple COBB Tuning facilities across the country These tests cover the spectrum of altitude, temperature, humidity, octane and fuel quality variables to ensure proper calibration and performance wherever the car is driven.
- Change Maps – Since all base maps and custom tune maps are stored in the Cobb AccessPORT, you can change maps any time you want. Switch to a race gas map for that extra performance at the track. Go to the Fuel Economy map for those long boring drives. Load the Valet map to keep revs below 3,200 when you drop your car off with the parking attendant. The Anti-Theft map does not allow the car to start, keeping it safe in suspect areas or during extended parking.
- Performance – Turn on your own portable performance evaluation suite! Measure 0-60mph time, 60 foot and 1/4 mile ETs and Trap Speed. Switch to Dynamometer simulation and calculate your vehicle’s horsepower and torque.
- Live Data – Monitor OEM sensor data on-the-fly. Use the Cobb AccessPORT as an additional gauge to monitor a huge number of signals, like: RPM, Intake Air Temp, Boost Pressure, Baro Pressure, Abs Pressure, MAF, Ign Advance, Injector Pulse Width and many more!
- Datalogging – Onboard datalogging allows multiple channels of data to be recorded simultaneously for later review. This allows for analysis of current engine performance. Datalogs can be sent to professional tuners to provide additional power gains remotely through email!
- Trouble Codes – The Cobb AccessPORT allows you to read engine codes to troubleshoot issues and potentially save you from an expensive trip to the dealership. Once the issue is resolved, clear the codes and turn off the check engine light.
- Uninstall – In the event the car must be returned to the stock configuration, the Cobb AccessPORT can be completely removed and the ECU restored to its factory condition. Perfect for trips to the dealership.
