Default general tuning question

i just bought the cobb accessport 2.0 last weekend and have been running a stage 2 map and so for im not pleased... so im scheduled to get Ecutek tuned tonight at 7pm by some guy at Mastro Subaru.. i have an 07 WRX TR with full exausht AEM cold air intake and some other little things and he says he always tunes at 20 psi of boost, with the cobb the tune is at 17 psi but then drops to 13psi after about 4500 Rpms.. and the top end pull sucks balls, so i guess my question is can the ecutek tune so that it holds 20psi give or take 1-2 psi of boost all the way through the pull?

Suggestion: Slow down.

You bought an AP, ran 1 map for 4 days, and now you're schedule already to get an EcuTek tune?

Did you even bring this up in the COBB forums and talk to people about it?

well i tired all the maps possible with the AP and it barely made any difference all it did was get rid of my check engine light.. i slight increase in horsepower but nowhere near worth the 700 bucks spending on it

with the cobb there really isnt any fine tuning and im runnig the best map possible before upgrading the turbo... theres nothing else i can do it except maybe the streettuner crap but that i believe is the same as doing an ecutek tune

If you want a sick cobb tune, I can schedule you in for 12/29 to be tuned by Gadiel. Look him up on Nasioc, he is one of the best Subaru tuners known. pm me if you are interested.
