Cobb Tuning dyno pull

Enjoy!! Great numbers, imo.

Looking forward to seeing more out of Cobb in the coming months.

You didn't hear yet? Subaru snuck AWD into the car without letting Toyota know. Profit.

Nice, get about 140TQ under 3.5RPM range. I'm really liking the torque curve.

I was expecting 170hp 140tq, so that's pretty much what i was expecting. I'm not expecting huge gains from cobb tuning either as they mostly deal with FI, and without changing anything about the engine I'm not sure tuning will yield much more than a few hp. If they can get it to 175hp stock I'll be surprised.

kind of a guess here, but maybe it's a resistance simulation. On the street, your rear wheels will haveto push the front wheels into motion, which adds some rolling resistance to the car overall, so maybe this dyno simulates this by making the rear wheels push the rollers on the front (so simulate pavement more closely).

I'm guessing it is an awd dyno and the front and rear rollers are mechanically connected. any time the rear rollers spin it will cause the fronts to spin

It's been awhile since I stopped caring about absolute numbers these dynos produce. It's a tuning tool. Hope they tested at least something, like air filters....
