Cobb do support NZ and Australian WRXs, but only MY2015 and 2016 at the moment, and they need to be NZ new not JDM imports. They should be supporting older AUDM/NZ models soon as well (within weeks from what I understand), along with the MY17 WRX.

You want a tactrix cable and the free software it comes with

 

It will do everything you want and there's off the shelf tunes you could load on for free go fast (like an STi S202 tune for arguments sake) or go down the road of learning to DIY it, or pay someone to do it

No it's not, especially not in NZ.. just lay for a tune for the petrol you use and the mods to suit your car 

 

Ooooh that reminds me @Subru was it you that runs 95 octane because they can get it on a fuel card or something? Please please tell me you are running your STI on 98......

Best tuner if you are willing to pay for it would be dtech in tauranga, their reflashes are phenominal.

 

There is also Chris at Prestige Motorsport here in Welly, much shorter drive to get there :)

I'd love a AccessPort for my MY17 STi but would settle with ecuTEK RaceRom. Gives multiple map switching, launch control, flat foot shifting etc

Can get all of that with open source tuning without getting your ECU locked and having to always go back to an ECUTek tuner. Are there any reputable tuners actually doing ECUTek right now?

The open source doesn't work with some of the newer subarus, JDM anyway.Just been and found that it won't work on my 2010 legacy will go the ECUtek way now

Pretty sure mine is all good, have found some definitions. Just need to get my Tactrix back from @willisnz when he's done with it and then I can do some proper testing.

I had WRC Developments do ECUtek to my 2010 Legacy GT, 215kw 470nm end results.

Yeah I'm not sure cause they've serviced the car etc since and updated the ECU and haven't mentioned anything.

Accessport now also supports AU/NZ new WRXs 2008 and newer according to a Facebook post an hour ago.

That's brilliant for any SGT owner wanting a nice simple tune for around $800

Doubt a service guy would really have the foresight to tell you what has been done voids a factory warranty or not.

 

I'd almost be ringing up Subaru NZ and annomously querying your position if I was you. The mods that have been done certainly change the engines operating conditions and if they bothered looking into the ECU last time they'd definately do so again and notice the corrections it's making to try hit the standard afr/power/boost figures

True if all they want is the simplest OTS Cobb tune, but to me the big story is that it opens the market up to thousands of overseas professional etuners.

      Afternoon team,
      im new to the group first time posting. Im hoping some body can help me get my launch control all dialled in on my link g4x. Ive had the computer and car all tuned from chris at prestige awesome knowlegable guy super happy with the results but now im wanting to get my launch/anti lag all dialled in. Ive been reading multiple different forums etc all with different conflicking information which has made me nervious with what do i listen to this or that if you get what i mean. Now ive started to make myself familiar with my PClink software etc the past few weeks and im eager to learn how to do minor setups or tweaks etc so im not relieing on my tuner so much and obviously saving myself abit hurt in the back pocket. 
      Now back to the question at hand.... Im wondering if theres and one who could please share there knowledge and wisdom with setting all my values, timing, fuel etc when i have launch control armed and engaged, or even a launch tune file they can possibly send me to load onto my tune. Ive figured out the setup of my digital inputs turning launch control on etc and its obvisously on its pre set factory settings. It engages but doesnt sound the greatest or as angry as it should i feel. Hence reaching out to you good buggers. 
       
      Cheers in advance for any info and help yous maybe able to give me.
       
      Cheers Shaun
