Just received my Accessport!

Vegasboricua · 03-12-2010, 11:43 PM

Another super dumb question. Im totally new to this "accessport" How does it hook up to your car? Would someone like me who has relitivly no automotive experience be able to tinker with this?

Hooks up to your OBD port under your steering wheel, take a look under there when you get a chance, you'll see a white female plug in. You plug into that, and your accessport will start installing itself, just load the map that was created for you, unplug it, and enjoy the new balls out power.

Very nice. I take it this is only effective with some mods like I/H/E?

AAM has a tune for every mod, whether you just have G3's, or just HFC's, or even just a CBE, or any combination of the 3 or more. Best $500 you can spend on this car if you dont plan on going forced induction any time soon. Clint estimated i'd pick up 20 or more ft./lbs of tq, and I can definitely tell I picked up every bit I lost on the low end. Havent opened it up too much yet so the ol' butt dyno cant tell if i picked up any noticeable hp gains, but i definitely feel the power.

Red370 · 03-13-2010, 12:08 AM

Just look at my lil dyno thing, that wasnt even done properly and look at the power, I guarantee i'm easily over 320whp

Vegasboricua · 03-13-2010, 12:23 AM

Hmmmm....intresting...Ill probably tinker around with this when I get my bolt ons in. Are the maps free for life?

not sure about AAM's maps, but every single map that Cobb eventually creates will be free on their website for download.

Vegasboricua · 03-13-2010, 12:32 AM

Very nice! Going to have to add this to my list of things to buy! lol

Red370 · 03-13-2010, 12:38 AM

Vegasboricua · 03-13-2010, 12:41 AM

Not sure about the rev limit or throttle programming either, I cant view the maps on my computer right now for some reason. How bout giving them a call? or you could check out the Cobb website, CobbTuning.com - Home Page

Sounds promising. The ECU tweaks will be the last thing I'll do after a few more minor engine mods. In the meantime, I'll wait to see what else they can unlock and offer for downloads. How's the 2.5k RPM lag?

Glad to here your just as pleased with the Cobb and Altered Atmosphere that I am!!! It’s incredible how much the Access Port helps the mid and low end tq. It’s been a little over a week since my tune and I still get all excited when I get on it and feel the additional power.

AA told me that they usually only bump the Rev limiter + 200RPM’s (being conservative for safety). I told him that other tuners were raising to 8100 so he raised mine to 7900. To be honest though you start loosing tq around 7200 so I will probably have them lower is a little…maybe to 7700.

I have not had a chance to play with the HP estimator on the AP. I will report back on how close it was to my actual tune.

I did try the 0-60 estimator two times but I only get 5 seconds. It’s still really cold in PA and my tires can’t grip well for a good launch. Haha…my 2nd gear spins hardcore

I have not done any research or anything regarding tuning with the 370Z so this may be a stupid question. I assume this can be removed if need be to go to the dealer for service/warranty work?
