What next after Cobb Tune

keyowne · 10-07-2015, 09:17 AM

So ive got the cobb tuner and am thinking what else is needed to support the tune,i.e i was thinking of getting a Blow off valve to deal with the extra boost, will a charge pipe be needed as well?

Am gona get a new set of tyres after winter as the run flats are shit to be honest.

charge pipes blow under stock boost so yeah, you want to upgrade that. others might have more commentary regarding BOV

I would recommend an Intercooler!

Chargepipe and FMIC are a must. Intake and downpipes would be nice too.

Charge pipe is a must since the stock one is prone to failure.

after the charge pipe the decision is based on your goals. You can get catless downpipes for max power and an upgrade in the exhaust tone.

Or you can get an intercooler so that the car keeps targeting max boost and ignition timing no matter how many pulls you do.

Just make it easier on yourself and get all three
