New Toy Today!!!
I got my new toy today it's a Cobb AccessPort 
So far it's a lot smoother than the UNICHIP and it's got a lot of other really cool features... hopefully this can be enough to put me in the 12's.
more info can be found at:

well all I can say about this product is WOW!
The wait was definately worth it and paying all of my money in full at the time of purchase was again well worth it!
The best thing I like about this is that you are able to reflash your own ECU rather than send it out to Cobb and have some down time with your car.
My idle with my car changed as soon as I turned on the car.
The boost tappers off toward redline (kinda don't like that but it must serve a purpose)
I have AccessPort #3
regarding the things that come with it...
you get the following:
AccessPort
DB9 male to male cable
DB9 male to OBDII connector
AC Adapter
02-03 or 04 Harness Plug
Detailed Instruction Manual
Email with initialization software (some early shipped models weren't initialized so you would have to do it before flashing your ECU)
Map Management Software CD (Supposed to come with it but mine didn't... I downloaded it off of their website)
Everything is top quality!!!
I like it already! :banana:
I was the first in Hawaii to order mine and since I was on the mainland on the release date I benefited from that! I'm stocked!
oh... bit of info... when stage 3 comes out that's going to kick ***!

i haven't done much driving since i'm taking care of my new son, but it does feel slightly quicker... i reconnected my stock boost controller for this
if you ordered last week then you might be waiting for a while since they have pre-orders to take care of.
you can even read boost with it...
