Hi guys, I have been doing a bunch of research and about to pull the trigger on a Cobb from EQT.
While investigating tunes, I looked at ALOT of graphs and I also know what my goals are living in California and not wanting to make “major” changes that would blow my chances of passing smog with the stock tune and intake put back on.
While I relish the idea of the IS38 Turbo I am wondering if a Cobb gesi catted downpipe will keep the engine pulling past 5k where it seems like most tunes drop off. OR, is this just the way it is until you swap to a Hybrid turbo or bigger turbo?
I am not looking for crazy HP, something close to 320 that pulls all the way to 7k, I don’t want tire roasting torque I want linear HP that doesn’t fall off and not a pregnant looking power graph..lol
appreciate the feedback
