I know, I know...I cant wait for the N55 tune!

It's gonna be sooooooooooooo much easier to install than fiddling around with wires and risking breaking stuff in the ECU/engine bay! I can't wait!!!!!

Dannydeleted · 01-06-2011, 11:24 PM

Thanks Gary!

HondaGoneRogue · 01-06-2011, 11:25 PM

Awesome. Can you tell us if we will get the no-lift-shift, launch control etc?

Thaddy · 01-06-2011, 11:25 PM

Christ, that's a lot of torque...

Gary, any idea when the N55 AccessPORT could be available? Also, are you expecting similar gains as the twin turbo N54?

These questions were mine as well, so I'm going to quote this for consistency's sake.

And that dyno is very impressive...

Well since we are quoting posts to duplicate them I will too.

No ETA has been set for the N55 at the moment. Further development and testing continues.

No ETA or confirmation on the availability of flat-foot shifting has been mentioned.

Simply put, once more information is available...I'll be quick to letting you all know!

HondaGoneRogue · 01-06-2011, 11:35 PM

Thanks.

Now that made me chuckle out loud.

Are we going to have to go to a Cobb dealer to get updates and a custom tune when the pro software comes out? Please explain how this will work.

The Retail locations will all be authorized to provide custom protunes for you. For those with additional modifications that are more than the Stage 1 maps (downpipes, fmic's, etc).

As far as updates, that can be done via your PC or Mac via the AccessPORT Manager software. When a new firmware release is announced, simply plug the AccessPORT to your computer, run the AccessPORT Manager, Update the firmware, and BAM! If there are map revisions, the new maps will be available for you to reflash your vehicle (using the "change map" option) and you will have a newer version flashed to your car.

COBB Tuning · 01-07-2011, 12:30 AM

Professional tuning shops will be able to purchase AccessTUNER Pro software when it becomes available. We have many Pro Tuners in our network that will be using the BMW tuning software, and we hope several new shops will join us as well.

If you've got a favorite tuning shop you work with now and are interested in the AccessPORT and a custom tune, be sure to let them know. New tuners will come on board if the demand is there from their customers.

This is the first tune I have seen where the HP continues to increase up to 6500 rpm - amazing

You say retail locations will offer this, however what if there are no COBB retail locations nearby? Can I just tell you guys which mods I have if and whenever I get this and have you guys apply the custom map before it ships?

This is where one of the prime time features of the AccessPORT will come into play: datalogging.

So lets say prior to the purchase, you inform us of your modifications. The tuner will then set up a base map for you with your needed specifications. You will then receive the AccessPORT, flash your car with this map, and begin a datalog session.

Transfer the log from the AccessPORT to your computer via the AccessPORT Manager software, and send the file over to your tuner. Back and forth, and you will have a custom tune at your fingertips to your vehicle's specifications.

It's technically what we consider, an e-Tune.

Dannydeleted · 01-07-2011, 02:44 AM

The other option would be to contact your local trusted tuner to see if there is a large demand for them to acquire the AccessTuner Pro Software.
