Cobb Tuning one of the leaders in Japanese plug and play vehicle tuning has just dropped this bombshell by releasing their famed Accessport for the Porsche 991 Turbo and Turbo S. Cobb which started out in the Subaru WRX STI tuning market, has went on to develop one of the most popular OBDII tuners for the Nissan GTR and cars like the BMW N54 and Ford EcoBoost platforms. A little late to the game, Cobb did come out with a 997 Turbo application. But with ECU reading and writing very difficult with the new SDI9 systems, Cobb has laid down some serious respect with this new product for the Porsche tuning world.

Our Porsche Experts have been hard at work making sure we’re all set for the Porsche 991 Turbo Accessport release which is getting closer by the day! The most fun part of that process is strapping the cars down to the dyno and seeing just how much power they make after a bit of tuning. We were extremely lucky to be able to work with Porsche of Colorado Springs for the Pikes Peak International Hill Climb. That experience enabled us to learn a TON about these cars and how they react to different tuning strategies, aftermarket bolt-on parts, or differences in fuel quality. Below, we’ll take a look at some of the power gains we’ve seen. First, on an otherwise stock car followed by gains associated with an upgraded exhaust and appropriate tuning. As a note, the data in the graphs was recorded on two separate days however the delta from the baseline pulls remains accurate.
Seen here is our initial Stock Baseline pull on 91 octane fuel along with a Stage 1 OTS map using 93 octane fuel. A Stage 1 map would be used on an otherwise completely stock vehicle. Power under the curve is significantly increased throughout the low and mid range. Maximum gains of around 60whp are seen between 3000-4000 RPM. Most impressive is the increase in low-end torque, with gains of over 100 ft/lbs!
Next up, Stage 2. A Stage 2 map is calibrated to be used on a car with upgraded exhaust. As is evident with the power gains, the motor is able to flow a significantly greater amount of air with the freer flowing exhaust. With gains of 120 ft/lbs down low and nearly 100 hp at peak, the cars become a whole new animal. We are able to be a touch more aggressive utilizing 100 octane fuel, this will be a great option for customers interested in tracking their car where detonation resistance is key.
Stay tuned as we continue development on this platform. At this point, the cars will really need an improved cooling system to make any additional power. We’re already in contact with top intercooler providers in the industry with intentions of overcoming the next bottleneck in power.
