FS: Cobb AP V3

Category: Engine - Power Adders
Price: $275
Private or Vendor Listing: Private Listing
Part fits: Porsche 911 996 Turbo
Location (State): TX
Item Condition: Used
Shipping Information: Item can be shipped

This Cobb AP V3 was used less than two weeks. I found another car and traded mine in. Unfortunately I totally forgot to uninstall that AP. Therefore Cobb charges 450 to unlock it. So with tax an all, your're saving a lot of money. This is shipped anywhere in US. Price is firm.


Lastly, I live in San Antonio and can drive to Cobb in Austin and have then unmarry it. Then sell it at 800. I would require a 450 deposit via PayPal and prior to ship the remaining 350. If someone wants to to that let me know ill be in Austin on Monday and Wednesday this week.

again it will be a pretty much new AP V3 with access to all the off the shelf maps increasing HP from 60-80.

FYI, Cobb can also reprogram this unit to work for a 997.1 turbo. I assume they can program it to other platforms as well, but I only have experience with converting a 996 turbo AP3 to 997.1 turbo. It cost me $955 (difference in retail between 996 and 997.1 units) + $75 programming fee. So for $1030 + $275 = $1305, you can have a 997.1 turbo AP3, which is $545 savings over retail. Since you are changing platforms, I am guessing they might wave the "unlock" charge, but you would definitely need to verify that with Cobb.

Very good deal the preloaded maps work great. All you need is an exhaust to run Stg. 2 93 and if you have stickie tires you'll be golden. Easiest instal and can monitor everything. Stage 1 is also very agree dive around 60 hp.

This is such an easy install and stage 1 is great. No mods needed and you'll grab 60 hp. The throttle Response is awesome and stage 2 you just need exhaust and you'll be ripping. View and monitor all gauges, it's sick and great support very easy to upload custom maps with e85 too. Just a great product

Hey Lizard, I would possibly be interested, but is it worth the hassle of getting it unlocked to save $150?? Also, what did you leave in the other car?? i had to read the post several times to catch what your selling here.
Cobb AP for 996 turbo, Locked, with all accessories. Correct?
Thanks

scout i believe he's selling the handheld unit itself.

He didnt unmarry it, meaning his car was sold with whatever flash was on it as well meaning this cobb unit is locked to that..

Correct. I sold my car without uninstalling it. Therefore it needs to be sent to Cobb to unmarry it which is 450. It takes them 10 minutes, literally. Then they send to you. Which at that point it is essentially a brand new AP.free to use all the maps and such.

So 275 + 450 = 725.

As you see in my receipt with taxes and such it is close to 1k.

So you save 200-250. I have everything that they would give you and it's all brand new. If you live in Austin or Dallas this would be perfect. Regardless shipping will be very cheap, like 10 one way and they ship back for free. So it's a really good deal.

You're saving 243, stopping at the post office or UPS to ship a product it would cost about 10 bucks. They send back to you at no charge. So 233 you're saving.

It's up to you, I think it's a good deal. They unmarry it in about 10 minutes and send it back out so the turnaround time is good. I don't see much hassle except stopping at store to save 230 bucks.



275 + 450 =725

725-968 = 243

243-10 (postage) 233 Total savings.

I just wanted to leave a review. I bought the Cobb, and Lizardbreath took care of the entire unlocking process, then shipped it to me in very short order. Everything was perfect and working as expected. Thanks for the easy sale.
