Great to know You have a Cobb, I want to learn more about this Cobb.. so your running a stage 2 map? Was that a download from their site? Do you know what this guy is talking about on that link, he's saying 17psi with the 335i map.. please any knowledge would be very helpful. Thanks bro
Yes, I'm using the maps from the Cobb site. You can read about the maps here https://cobbtuning.atlassian.net/wiki/plugins/servlet/mobile?contentId=67207302#content/view/67207302

The E70 has a bigger intercooler than the 335 so it is assumed that it would cool almost as good as a upgraded intercooler. I did run stage1+ aggressive for a while and have seen 14 psi. Now I'm just running stage1+ sport which is like 12 psi. Based on the map notes, stage2+ aggressive is 18 psi. On the dyno maps, it's only a minor % increase in hp and tq fom the stage1+ and stage2+. Assuming you get more hq and tq from increased boost, it seems as if a catless dp doesn't add any power.

At this stage, I would buy the MHD tune instead of the Cobb. It can be bought for cheaper ($250-$400) and offers more support and updates. I would not get Dinan as I still think their sale price is too high.
