FireB Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Stage 2 package is good I guess. But there are a lot of people here that would argue about the smaller diameter bottle necking at the end of Down Pipe. (Some Don't) Quality is top notch. Fitment is great. Power gain.......well http://www.cobbtuning.com/products/?id=2436 That should tell you everything you need. Cobb Access Port is something you might need later anyway so that would be a definite buy in my opinion. Now for the Down Pipe, everyone has a different taste so I really can't tell. I have Perrin 2 Piece and it was just crappy fitment for some reason... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Regal05LGT Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 That's a good package, but you can get the same gains with a less expensive DP and the accessport. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regal05LGT Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 The COBB catted TBE isn't too loud from what I remember, just has a nice rumble to it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FireB Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I just have the Muffler part. It is DEEP but not obnoxious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
God help me Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 i bought this package from COBB and love it. It's more pricey yes, but the quality is remarkable. The sound is not really loud, but it's really deep...it's just a great sounding exhaust! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKLGT Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I preferred my SPT CBE vs the Cobb. it was quieter and great quality. Also, the Cobb catted dp is just so-so. you can get a better one for about the same $ or less. Just mho. If I were to do it over again, I'd go with either Invidia or Harman Motive's 3" catted DP and the SPT exhaust. Cobb AP with a protune or etune and upgrade the TMIC. Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowImg Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 Out of curiosity, what do you consider 'so so' about the Cobb DP? The construction/materials/finish seemed top notch to me. Fitment was a breeze, and no wastegate issues as many have had with Invidia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitment was a breeze, and no wastegate issues as many have had with Invidia. the HFC had some issues and what we are finding up here is they are NOT passing IM due to this. Not all, but more recent batches. No issues with the HM or otherwise. Wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle wiggle yeah!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
baruGT Posted September 9, 2008 Share Posted September 9, 2008 I just ordered the cobb stage 2 power package as well the heat shield...should be installed and tuned next tues...cant wait!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No issues with the HM or otherwise. That's interesting. As I understand it, pretty much everyone gets their HFCs from the same manufacturer, and it's the same cat. I would suspect this problem would follow to other vendors as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
