COBB AccessPORT Coming Soon?!?!
So I don't know exactly what this means but I know that many of us have contacted Cobb and have been shot down when requesting info on an AccessPORT for the BRZ/FRS/GT86 platform. I stumbled across this when searching the internet:
 It seems they've set up a BRZ subsite that isn't public yet since it is password protected. Can anyone with knowledge of Cobb's inner workings confirm or deny that this is being set up for an upcoming product release? If so...  Just a note: I work in the aftermarket for a parts manufacturer and had to black out some Favorite sites since they pertained to work and I most certainly will get beheaded if I "misrepresent the company" online.

I've seen a prototype catback exhaust on their shop car.. So its possible they'll make swaybars or something for it.

I wouldn't be surprised to see an intake or exhaust or even having them sell springs... but I doubt the AccessPORT is coming.

I talked to Trey Cobb Personally at SEMA and he said there will NOT be an Accessport for the BRZ/FR-S. He said the gains would not be justified on an N/A platform. He said if there is a Forced Induction version that comes out of the factory they will reconsider this.
Sorry guys, we were bummed too! -Tristan |
