335is Cobb stage 1 sports map gain?

So I'm deciding whether or not to get the Cobb for my 335is. Does anyone know what's the HP and torque gain for stage 1 sports map? Is the difference worth the $800?

I have a 335i not an IS though. I asked myself the same question. The answer is yes. I can not give you an exact number since I have not dynoed. There is an considerable power difference going from sport to aggressive in Stage 1. All you need for aggressive is 93 octane. It fly's in aggressive. Even in sport you will notice a substantial gain from stock trust me. You can find the AP new for low $700's shipped. $800 is overpaying.

with a 335is the difference in stage1+ is that you will have overboost all the time.

if you have 93 oct, you can run aggressive which is a decent bump in power from stage1 sport.

You also get tons of maps, and mods for those maps are suggested/required but that doesn;t mean that you can't choose to run higher power maps when you decide to use higher octane pump or ethanol.

I've seen 335is put some serious number FBO with a protune.

I think it's great value. you can get it for 725$ around here shipped. it's a good investment and anyway you'll start adding mods as you go.

COBB maps are very conservative.

Try running stage1 + sport and let me know.

For what's its worth my car baselined at 319/320whp on a DynoJet with 94octane gas. This was within a few whp of what BMS said to expect of a stock car.

Never tested the COBB so can't help out there.

In a single gear dyno pull the 335is provides less low hanging fruit to be gained from an OTS map tune only. However, with a protune it becomes a completely different story

Not at all. We specialize in e-tuning services. All you need is the room to safely datalog and you're good to go.

Or, if you prefer, we offer remote dyno tuning. Find a local dyno and we tune the car while the dyno operator makes pulls and provides us with feed back.

We offer tune + Accessport combo deals. $895 for V2 + tune or $995 for V3 + tune.

Stage1+ is more aggressive than stage1 actually. COBB says you need an FMIC to run that map.

now try it out, it won't hurt. The power won't be consistent run after run because the FMIC will heat soak.
