I hear the AP will be able to remap the cam control as well, which would be most excellent.

BTW, are the MAF sensors for the subarus before or after the turbo? I'm not sure, but you'd think they'd be right up by the air filter before the turbo where they would have a much harder time getting maxed out

the map sensor is useless all it does is control boost and boost cut
has NOTHING to do with fueling
the maf is pre turbo but i also do post turbo stuff all the time
Blow thru FTW

you can add an external map, its not terribly hard.
Ill check w cobb today and see if thats in the plans i believe it is

What Cobb does and should be helpful with FI Z's is allow you to redefine the MAF voltage so it doesn't max out.

Exactly! Kinda like the Mustang guys have been doing with the MAFia but with a software fix instead of a hardware fix.

I figured not all of you guys go into the HR subforum, and you might be interested in reading this:

Aside from misleading the Z community about this product for over a year, Cobb has nothing on Uprev. Cobb's public relations reputation with regard to this product is crap. By comparison, Uprev has bent over backwards to help their customers. Furthermore, feature for feature, the Accessport has nothing on Osiris.

BTW, on 3/19/07 Trey himself stated on his forum: "...but if we don't have it available in the next 6 months, you won't be the only ones looking for heads to roll." Now, over seven months later, they will "announce" a release date soon. What a joke! IMO, this announcement was only meant to slow down the Osiris movement, since anyone that buys Osiris now is not likely to buy the Accessport down the road. I wouldn't buy an Accessport for the principle of it.

I'm buying whichever one with the features I want comes out first. Plus there are a ton of AccessPORT tuners around already.

That has always been my practice also, regardless of the price, however after waiting about as long as I usually hold on to a car, I decided to go with what was on the market. Based on what I've seen thus far, I'm glad I did.

You don't have an HR. We're still waiting on either company to get something out.

MAP sensor tuning is much more complicated than MAF tuning.

Subarus have their sensor pre-turbo, right after the air box. Also, as far as measuring flow, it does not matter if it is pre or post turbo. Whatever you're taking in, is what you're taking in. The turbo only compresses the air it sucks in so it's all the same. Why would you think having it pre turbo would equate to lower flow readings? The flow characteristics dictate the location.

Subaru stock Denso sensor maxes out at 300g/s, which is 4.5V. That's roughly equates to 300whp on subies.
