My MS6 currently has a MSCAI and a catback exhaust. I am thinking about buying an ETS TMIC, but a have a question. When modding the engine with such parts as mine (CAI, CBE, and TMIC) is it safer to get just bolt them on and let the stock ecu learn the differences, or is it a better idea to get a Cobb AP and use the appropriate maps for it.
I guess what I am getting at is this: If I ran the AP with a map that went along with my current mods would it alter the car to run more safely and efficiently given the changes in airflow, etc? Or does the AP just push the car harder knowing it can handle more given the modifications?
Is the AP ever "necessary" or can the ECU's stock map always learn and handle mods safely?
Thanks.
