Cobb vs UpRev

Denny McLain · 08-25-2009, 08:22 AM

Just purchased Cobb and after a bit of a hassle to get the program installed, (It won't work on Vista 64) finally got it going on a back-up 32 bit Vista laptop. Going through the program trying to figure it out and realizing fully it's a beta version, my initial impression is.......it really doesn't do much.

Example: The car usually runs a 200 degree water temp and my intentions are to replace the thermo with hopefully a 160 degree one and have the fans come on sooner. There are no provisions in the software to adjust onset of the fans. If you can't do something as simple as adjust the fans, cam tuning??!!

Appears to be very, very basic and not exactly what I was looking for. The AccessPort is a handy gadget, but "gadget" may be the key word. Time will tell as it's really too soon to make judgments and it's real easy to brag up something before it even works, (UpRev) but everything eventually comes out in the wash and I'm willing to give things some time.

Right now I'm going........You're kidding me, right? The big whoop de do is over this?
