Cobb dudes, sticker is NOT going on my car till my ap works!!

Sometimes it's not so bad and others you just don't want anything to do with by the end of it all. I am optimistic that these will be minor hiccups at the front then pay out as time goes on.
Thats the price you pay for flash tunes (Cobb, GIAC, Dinan). With the constant ECU/DME updates that BMW puts out it's a pita. That being said I'm looking foward to owning the AP or ATR. As far as the logs I've seen and the disscussions I've read this is gonna be an awesome DIY at home tune. Every tune had to start somewhere (remember the JB1 and the V1 which weren't PNP) and I believe this tune just needs some time to work out the kinks.
