My Cobb with Stage 2 OTS runs great. I track the car, never misses a beat, runs down Vettes and Porsche's. Just saying...

I sold my Cobb and switched to MHD and still made a gain.

MHD's development is ongoing whereas Cobb stopped supporting the N54 platform. The V6 maps are great and with V7 maps coming out soon, MHD is just going to get better and better.

I had my hesitations at first but it's really a no brainer to me now.

Do a custom MHD and you'll really be impressed.

If your using OTS it really only matters who's OTS are better not what device you are using. MHD has a few goodies like boost by gear, exhaust burble etc. Once you begin to upgrade turbos or go single the development side of MHD becomes more significant. The actual tuner though is usually the X factor (a good tuner with a Cobb trumps an average tuner with MHD and vise versa).

That's exactly why I plan to switch because of the extra goodies and because I plan on going single after my stock turbos fail, thanks
