(New to a 2018 WRX Limited) All this BS as Feedback Learn, Fine knock learn and DAM. Along with the other things to monitor is getting my ocd worked up that I might as well keep the car bones stock. Just slap some good ole chevron gas or shell gas (91 octane) top tier fluids(whether liqui moly/motul or perhaps good ole oem fluids) and just leave it alone. Don’t want my head to explode. If I find the ranges then maybe I’ll modify. Or idk. 😞 Ex Feed back learn ( x.xx-x.xx) Fine knock learn (x.xx-x.xx) DAM (x.xx-x.xx) Etcetera I do appreciate the feedback Smeedia.
OTS tunes will give more of these readings than a protune would and half the times the readings are the sensors going off when they shouldn't. Mod the car and enjoy or keep it stock and enjoy, both are good options 🔥😁
That feeling you get when you’ve wanted one of these for months, watched all the videos, finally get one, and your 2013 is running perfectly per all the monitors. BOOYA.
Power to the people 🙌 love taking requests from everyone. There are some videos that I want to make but if I see videos requested frequently I'll definitely get them done fir everyone 🔥
AF Ratio 1 Intake Air Temperature Coolant Temp Dynamic Advanced Multiplayer Feedback Knock Fine Knock Learn. Basically all you need regarding Knock and timing. Boost is already on your center console, and IAT is much more important. Staying out of boost above 120 degrees to prevent knock. Coolant Temp for stop and go traffic monitoring, because the Analog dash Guage is garbage. Also for warm up, don't start driving until 135 degrees (Coolant) has been reached for engine longevity sake. Warm up is very important.
I would clarify and say, stay out of boost until 135 degrees, and dont go WOT until 165. Minimal load isnt going to cause issues at low temps. Once the cars been on 30 seconds or, oil has already made decent circulation (outside of extreme cold).
@@joshuac2391 Knock values are quite accurate. It isn't the Accessports doing. It's the poor factory tune. You're best to get a protune. Values below are what you will commonly see. On a good protune. You'll rarely ever get a value other than 0.35. Fine Knock Learn randomly on cold days or hot days may have 0.35 values to make minor adjustments to timing. To account for temp change. This is no issue. 0.35 - Nothing to worry about. Most of the time it's false knock. Sensors can pick up hard road bumps, AC cycling metal rattle etc. 0.70 - More than likely a possible knock event. If it's once and not again during your drive. I wouldn't pay any mind to it. If it's happening a lot or consistently. More than likely you'll see DAM drop below 1.00. Which 9/10 is bad fuel or old fuel. 1.35 - Pay attention. That is most definitely knock. If it's once and never again. I wouldn't worry. Most cars have random rare knock events. If it's consistent. Shut your car off. DAM will drop too. Most likely Bad fuel. If fuel is ruled out. Contact your tuner. Anything higher like 1.70 - 2.35. Definitely a problem. Contact your tuner and don't drive the car.
@@Mikey6048 thank you, i’ve seen a lot of people saying they have 2.35 or higher with the AP and that definitely isn’t a selling point to me. I want to consider a pro tune but i’ve just recently got into tuning so i don’t know too much about them and what are good ones etc. The main reason i’d need a tune is because i want to get an air intake for the car, what protune would you suggest for an aftermarket intake?
Bro it’s like you know exactly what I need to know! I just bought my first accessport yesterday! Great job like alway btw, I’ve been learning a lot from your vids
A bit late to the party, but AF Learning 1 and AF Correction 1 are also excellent monitors to keep up on. AF Learning will vary from as low as -12 to +12 sometimes beyond, you want to make sure this isn't going all over the place, under idle and no boost its okay to see some changes either way. AF Correction is similar to AF learning but this is an immediate value of correction rather than over time, the values will go from -35 to +35 and its normal to see them hit both those max during driving. What you WANT to see, is when you hit any boost over 0-PSI, that both of these values are either 0 or a tiny variation, + or - 1. If you see either of these values going wild either way when under boost pressure, it means you probably have some busted ringlands, or something is leaking somewhere. It's a good telltale sign for ringland issues, and health of said.
Dude Currently my dam, fine knock learn, feedback knock and afr are perfect, same with intake and coolant temp but af correction and af learning are all over the place but always within the -12 to +12 for af learning and -35 to +35 for af correction while driving but they don’t read the same like you were describing while driving but at idle af correction sit around -.78 to +.78 and af leaning sits around 3ish
Nice video, like always. 2 things... 1. Fairly positive you won't need to have the access port tell you that you threw a rod through the block... 2. In/Hg is inches of Mercury. It's how you measure vacuum. 30 inches of Mercury is a perfect vacuum.
Thank you for clarifying had a total brain fart when shooting 😅 and hopefully a rod does not fly through someone's block but you wont need an accessport if it's too late 😅
One of the few Scooby channels hosts on the YT whose contents are 100% substance !! Very glad to hear everyone think the same way, benefit and enjoy your content which you so passionately shared....You truly deserve it !!
Anybody can learn so much from your videos man. I currently do not have an AP or a tune, I still have warranty so really didn’t wanna mess with that to much but when it’s time it’s good to know I can always go back to your videos, no matter what I plan on doing with my car to find the info I need. As always, great video and looking forward to the next!!
I’m so glad I found your channel. I can’t stand reading or even audible books 😂🤣 but for the past almost a week now I’ve been watching every one of your videos and absorbing so much detail and information it’s crazy. Thanks a lot man!!!
AF Learning 1 is also a good one to monitor. It will let you know if fuel is being added or removed which can clue you into intake leaks or failing fueling components or sensors.
I'm glad I found this video cause I was low-key freaking out the other day when I got -1.4 on the feedback knock. Just bought my WRX and it had some mods done to it with all paperwork to show what was done...glad it's normal.
Great info here bro, I really appreciate it. It's hard for me to trust what values are "normal" or not without hearing the throttle condition (WOT, light throttle, or idle). According to Cobb, the DAM is within "normal" behavior at 0.6-1.0 on the FA20DIT during all throttle conditions. On feedback and fine knock, 0 is normal at idle and corrections of 0-4 at other throttle conditions. I just installed mine last week with a Stage 1 +BigSF 93 tune and my DAM went to .75 and then .83 and back to .75 during some spirited driving today. Also seeing the feedback and fine knock hit -2.88 at throttle conditions other than idle. At idle they will always return to 0. I'm trying to understand what is truly normal, and what is potentially harmful. Lol sorry for the long comment, but you seem to know your stuff, and I could always use some input.
No worries! If I ever see DAM drop and feedback knock increase its a good sign something is going on. I don't generally pay much attention to fine knock learn or AF correction but they Re also good gouges to keep an eye on. If you see increased knock without DAM changing it could be a rattle, heat shield thats loose, road noise or bumps. Don't let the anxiety port push you too far. Just use it as a reference
@@Smeedia so an update, my DAM went back to 1.000, feedback and fine knock don't fluctuate nearly as often, and this is while still driving spirited lol. I guess the ECU had to learn :)
Dude thanks for this! After my ProTune I had no idea what to look for in my Accessport once they hooked it up! P.S. got in an accident last night with my Celica (100% other drivers fault) and this really helped when laying in bed this morning recovering. Keep the content coming man it means a lot to people like me
Really appreciate the feedback and the support, sorry to hear about the celica and accident 😫 hopefully nothing to messed up and you have a speedy recovery. Glad that the video helps to understand the Valuss a little more 😁
Fantastic video, i bought a WRX, and i received a cobb AP has gift, wish i can buy a sti, unfortunately no longer on prod. I look everywhere on net and you tube to figure out the AP. I watch your videos, simply outstanding man!!! Keep going on making such informative and interesting content! Thank you….
Just bought a 2003 wrx with 91k original miles and I swear since I’ve got the AP set up I’m constantly finding myself looking at it and making sure my values are good 😅
According to Cobs website "zDEBUG are a series of monitors that are occasionally used by COBB staff to aid in diagnosis. Should support require their use, COBB will specify which monitors to log." So i would assume the zDEBUG is for COBB only diagnostics.
I was driving today. dam dropped to .859, then I had a constant fine knock learn at and low load 1.05 to 0 to .37 constant at 2 and half rpm never going back to 0. Never had feedback knock 2.45 but never changed in a 45 min drive
Thank you! And I don't see a need for oil temp in the car, but we have an AEM Oil pressure gauge already installed. One of my previous install videos 😅
@@Smeedia Yea, I was trying to decide between that and the "Tuff" SKU. Sounded like Stage 2 was all I "needed". At some point, I'll head back in for the tune against the re-build!
Planning on buying a used 2015 sti and I’m trying to see if I can use the port to my advantage and best of my ability . See if anything’s wrong . Thanks for the vid
I installed an APv3 on my 19 Sti this morning. I run 94 OCT which Cobb says is like ACN91 trash fuel. Fair enough. Subie mechanic at the dealership who owns a 20 STi tells me..."never run lower than 94 man". I install Cobb's Stage 1 ACN91/CAD94 LGW map and on the way to work this morning, I notice I'm getting -1.4 feedback knock, DAM is steady at 1.00. Hit a safe little dead end street to see what is happening at WOT. It hit 18.2lbs of boost which is a bit high for LWG, feedback knock and DAM are steady, -1.4 (I watched it hit that live right around 5000k) and DAM at 1.00. Understanding thanks to you, that hitting -1.4 is "normal", should I even bother trying the Normal Waste Gate map? I plan to get a pro dyno tune, but back logs are ridiculous. I am installing the SF+ intake this weekend and will go to the appropriate tune, starting at low waste. Should I go to 91OCT tune? 91 Shell V-Power and Canadian Tire 91 fuel is top tier rated, but it's 0 ethanol which I damn well know is better for knock reduction.
Good stuff as always brother, thanks again for your time and the awesome info my G , getting ready to swap out my fuel pump so i can run flex fuel 🔥💯😤😎✌🏽
i just picked up a 2015 WRX and started modifying it. This was an awesome video for me. I'm also curious about what mount you have for your AccessPort?
When I got my AP I thought the -1.4 knock was the worst- stressed me out to the point I was monitoring all cylinders 😂 Now it’s just another “small number” and realising the heat shield on the headers was loose 😂 But only a -1.4 to -2.80 on my wrx at 125k miles isn’t bad!
Love your videos man! I didn't know that you lived here in WA too! I live in enumclaw I hope I get to meet you in person one day man! Keep up the great videos!
My dam went to .750 today and anxiety went through the roof. Knock is normal at 1.41 or 2.81 so I’m not going to worry too much. Hoping just fuel issue or cause it was wicked hot today
This may be a stupid question, but why monitor boost or coolant temp, when they are already on the dash? Are the readings on the analog coolant temp, or digital boost gauge unreliable? Also, you're videos have been incredibly informative! And you taking the time to individually respond to comments and questions is awesome!
The coolant temp is one I moniter ever now and then after dlong something to the cooling system just to make sure temps are good from a data standpoint. As for boost, I dont trust the stock boost gauge lol
Bro your videos are fucking awesome I have been watching them all day and I don't even drive a Subaru lol wished I could find some honda tuning videos this in depth and explantitive
I follow your TH-cam channel I bought a 18 sti about 2 months ago o have been in love with these cars my entire life but I know absolutely nothing about cars in general I’ve learned so much from your channels and I go with your opinion and direction over anyone else who maybe does things different keep making videos bro I do have a question and I can’t seem t find an answer anywhere I have an 18 all stock no mods I bought it used an old man had it ans it only had 40 k on it o got my access port in a few days ago I’m on stage one + sf on 93 gas my dam and feed bak knock along with fine knock learn have been at 0 they have not moved once in days until today I get getting reading of 1.4 consistently in 3 hear when I get to around 6k rpms it’s adjusts it’s self goes back to 0 immediately same with fine knock learn dam is 1 that has not moved at all thank you baby Jesus bc I love this car. I named her Stephanie like I said not once did I get anything from either knock sensor until today. I wouldn’t be concerned but it’s pretty consistent it will go to one 1.4 then 1.05 then .7 then ,35 and feed back knock fixes it. And it will be fine and then later it will do it again it’s also been very hot these last few days my intake temp will be around 80 idel and drops as I drive sometimes low like 30. Air fuel is text book coolant also text book:. Also I’m installing a Cobb air oil separator 3 port boost controller Turbo inlet pipe Bpv Intake (already installed) Then a invidia catted divorcée wastegate dp with a r400 Gemini cat back And fuel system Cobb pump Cobb regular kit And new injectors Problem is it’s all coming at different times everything but the fuel and cat back I have I’m looking at 2 weeks for them to get here so we’re installing the Aos Boost controller Bov Inlet hose And intake Then in a week or so after Dp Catback Fuel system My tuner said he would bend me a map so I can do the first set of installs and drive with them until I get the Other stuff on and then will send another map so I can drive it there to get the tune I hiysss my 2 questions are 1 my is my knock acting up now 2 is it smart to drive with one set of mods on and not the others even with a map for it ? I have typed this question in a million different ways and can’t dine and answer you’d a pro with this shit can you please help me last thing I want to do is damage this car I got a separate extended warranty for this car to cover my ass bc I know sub will void it Can you help me what the answer to the knock issue it always ones in 3rd ay 6k and 4th around the same all other heats are fine again it’s been hot and I used a different gas station this time it said 93 but it’s probably watered down should I be worried And should I do one set of mods then the other ? If you could answer that It would be helpful and put me at ease I’m a worry wart and especially with my car I vacuum it every other day wash it every week change oil at 2700 miles
For the knock issue OTS maps are just prone to it happening, a loose heat shild or even. Pot hole can set it off. -1.40 & -2.80 are normal to see as well if you start seeing your DAM drop and feedback knoxk kncrease then you have an issues. As for the installs I wojld do them all at once but thats just my personal preference for installing parts. Just stay out of boost and you should be fine until your protune
Smeedia_ I want to buy I’m so impatient so the map that I’ll be using until the down pipe and exaust goes on will probably only let me boost Norman stock numbers until the exhaust goes on and the fuel system This would keep me from putting to much on my bottom end and not screw with my timing and fuel pump right? I’d that’s not the case then I will just wait it out
Smeedia also my dam has no moves from 1 since install either has both my knock sensors until today and that bugged me I’m a hypochondriac when it comes to my car
I wish I could fit the fine knock learning monitor in but I’m out of room :(. Feedback knock, DAM, fuel pressure final, coolant temp, ethanol final, boost, and a wideband AFR mounted. I recommend anyone running a Cobb flex fuel kit to monitor ethanol final. I’ve had trouble with these kits a few times and the car will think it has E10 in it when it really has a much higher concentration of ethanol. VERY DANGEROUS! I guess you would see it in your AFR but still! Nice video keep up the great work!
Where can I look to see what the values should be for a 2020 wrx..I looked on cobb and I can't find the list..im looking for hopefully a list that says what each gauge monitor is with what the associated value is next to it... Just had a protune done and I have no clue what I'm looking at lol
Do you have a video of a reliability build? Like if you were to modify a car but go for the best reliability for the wrx/sti platform what mod path you would specifically do and specifically avoid? Would be curious to see that!
Can a loose brake calliper be picked up as a knock by the sensor? I am getting DAM values in the range of .37 to .44. I have a 2015 WRX Limited, and I just bought a Cobb access port and I am using the 91 octane map. The car runs well, and certainly runs much better than it did with the stock map. From the video and the comments I can appreciate that the DAM is very important, but that it can also be thrown off by noise coming from loose heat shields, etc. unfortunately, no one has been able to figure out where the clunk comes from when I go over a bump without the brakes applied. It looks like I’m stuck with this clunk for some time. Could that be throwing off the DAM or is that range of low values so concerning that I should immediately get it looked at? The only other thing I’ve noticed since changing the matter is that my gas mileage is about 15% worse.
So I have an ‘05 that’s had quite the amount of work done to it prior to my purchasing of it. It was built and tuned professionally and the car drives great. I just learned about DAM and decided to put that on my V3 monitor. It reads 1.0 like it should for every other sti that’s not my generation. What would be a reasonable explanation for this? Is it fair to think that maybe the ECU was changed in this car with the IAG short block? It’s a Tuff 2 short block so idk if that build would represent itself differently to the access port or what. Idk. Just looking for some guidance to know how I should be looking at this
Just got pro-tuned before the cobb update goes into effect and tuners said if I have issues let him know but he set my Ap to read Intake temp manifold, Dam, feedback knock the other 3 is Ethanol Final and oil/coolant temp. Should I switch those out and what would I look for? The intake temp manifold is the one I have no idea where it should be hanging at. It’s a 2019 Wrx.
Those monitors are fine, intake temp should be abive ambient. If idling it will start to climb. But when driving it maybe be around +10 from outside temp
@@Smeedia it came out of the Dyno at 144 and been there all day and in traffic got as high as 180? Is that normal? I was tuned by Taylor from snail so I’d assume he know what he’s doing since he put me on flex fuel E60. Been driving 400 miles since Az back to Cali no problems so far. Maybe I’m just paranoid lol
I just bought a 2021 wrx only have 4K left on the car as well as 4K miles on it 😂 I installed some axel backs and bought the V3 AP and it’s literally just sitting here because I’m not going to settle for a ots tune or a Etune and being in SoCal there’s really only 1 place I know being a reputable pro-tuner shop, I’m so crossed between if I should stay within warranty or just void the thing 😓 Im also skeptical on a 91 tune, to my understanding FA’s do better on flex fuel? Idk so much anxiety, so many questions 😅
Etunes are fantastic options my man! My 650WHP 05 STI was Etuned and it was perfect. Just need to contact a few e tuners that can help! But if you want a dyno tune that's also a good option 🔥 They do love some E85 🔥
@@Smeedia thank you so much. I have aos , coolant mod and stage 1 plus ots tune on my 2020 Sti , my feedback knock is at 0.00 but my fine knock learn is at -2.80 through -3.85. DAM has stayed 1.000.
I just got my accessport today! Im so freaking excited, now just need a downpipe and Ill be ready to schedule my protune. Do you ever use the anti-theft MAP? Im guessing flashing the ECU every night before I go to bed with it isnt realistic, lol. Im just paranoid where I live, I had my 2003 Bugeye stolen last year from in front of my house. Which did eventually lead to my 2017 WRX, so good and bad.
Hey man I need help… 😞 So I purchased my STI 2017 not to long ago. And I just got my accessport. I installed it and everything else as far as values look good but my DAM is at 0.500 not at 1.000 Car drives great! No knocks anywhere. I havent filled my car with gas yet, and the dealer from where I purchased did an oil change and filled up my tank of gas full. Thats where Im at right now. Engines is fully stock and I havent touched anything or upgraded anything since I bought it… Could this be that dealer prob used cheap gas??? Please help Thanks!!
Hey quick question I have no feedback knock but I’m getting fine back learn at 3k rpm’s around 2k and my dam isn’t dropping but I’m getting -1.40 and -0.35
I’m new to all of this and was wondering if you have a video of what to monitor when on flex fuel. My damn changes when ever I give it gas and goes back to zero when off of it. Currently my af learn 1 is positive and negative often and has been low double digits.
@@Smeedia I saw -34 and positive 30s last week and then I cleaned my mass air flow sensor, the map sensor and my air filters. Now the car is running low double digits but only sometimes.
Love watching the vids I have a 2003 WRX with stage 2 and a Cobb tuner, however have you ever had a issue with the access port not turning on, now I haven't drove the car in a year but I did turn it on from time to time and the port worked but now it Dosent turn what's your best advise for it and I have called Cobb but they always seem to be closed when I call
What’s up brother! I want to know how i can get data log and visualize gauges without having to download a map…. I was running stage 1 from cobb but i got a pro tune directly to the icu. But I’m trying to use the accessport but it won’t let me bypass the part i have to download a map from it
For mine I use boost , speed , knock feedback, knock learn , AF ratio and dam I use to run RPMS but had to make room for the knocks after watching this
So I setup my accessport like this and while I was driving I noticed my D.A.M dropped to 0.812 and I also noticed the fine knock learn switching to -2. Something I forgot the other two but is this something I should be concerned about ? I’ve also noticed hot air coming out my vents without the ac on im concered I might have a leak need some help please
So, my accessport is read -8 on the feed back gauge, the fine knock learn gauge read +2 but both gauges went right back to 0 and it usually stays at 0. I should mention that I had my car tested for knock, and my motor read 150 during the compression test on all cylinders. Should I be worried?
So 2 question I have My Feedback knock is sometimes dropping to -1.4 or -2.8 which you said is normal. However my DAM stays at like 0.94. Is this something I should worry about?? My second question is I was told that Oil Temp is something important to pay attention to so I’m wondering if that’s something I should watch because I don’t have an Oil Temp monitor (unless it’s under a different name)
If your just daily driving the car I wouldent stress oil temp too much. If your out at a track and sending it, then I'd add an pil pressure and temp gauge. As for your DAM it should be at 1, try reseting ECU learning 🙏
I see you comment on most comments you receive, no matter how old the video may be, but do you have any recommendations on etunes? I'm nothing more than a "stage 1+" with the Cobb ots 91 tune. (Live in SD, can't get any 93 around here. Looking to go e85 sooner or later, but the kits are spendy). Anyway, I don't trust the ots times too much, but don't have too many places around me that can tune subies properly.

Basically all you need regarding Knock and timing. Boost is already on your center console, and IAT is much more important. Staying out of boost above 120 degrees to prevent knock. Coolant Temp for stop and go traffic monitoring, because the Analog dash Guage is garbage. Also for warm up, don't start driving until 135 degrees (Coolant) has been reached for engine longevity sake. Warm up is very important.
are you able to change what you see ? on my tune i only see a few he named in this video but the rest not so much
I would clarify and say, stay out of boost until 135 degrees, and dont go WOT until 165. Minimal load isnt going to cause issues at low temps. Once the cars been on 30 seconds or, oil has already made decent circulation (outside of extreme cold).
i’ve heard a lot about knock and it makes me very wary of the AP, is it an accurate reading or are the computers giving bad readings due to the tune?
@@joshuac2391 Knock values are quite accurate. It isn't the Accessports doing. It's the poor factory tune. You're best to get a protune.
Values below are what you will commonly see. On a good protune. You'll rarely ever get a value other than 0.35. Fine Knock Learn randomly on cold days or hot days may have 0.35 values to make minor adjustments to timing. To account for temp change. This is no issue.
0.35 - Nothing to worry about. Most of the time it's false knock. Sensors can pick up hard road bumps, AC cycling metal rattle etc.
0.70 - More than likely a possible knock event. If it's once and not again during your drive. I wouldn't pay any mind to it. If it's happening a lot or consistently. More than likely you'll see DAM drop below 1.00. Which 9/10 is bad fuel or old fuel.
1.35 - Pay attention. That is most definitely knock. If it's once and never again. I wouldn't worry. Most cars have random rare knock events. If it's consistent. Shut your car off. DAM will drop too. Most likely Bad fuel. If fuel is ruled out. Contact your tuner.
Anything higher like 1.70 - 2.35. Definitely a problem. Contact your tuner and don't drive the car.
@@Mikey6048 thank you, i’ve seen a lot of people saying they have 2.35 or higher with the AP and that definitely isn’t a selling point to me.

Smeedia What steering wheel you running? I dig the alcantera.
A bit late to the party, but AF Learning 1 and AF Correction 1 are also excellent monitors to keep up on.
AF Learning will vary from as low as -12 to +12 sometimes beyond, you want to make sure this isn't going all over the place, under idle and no boost its okay to see some changes either way.
AF Correction is similar to AF learning but this is an immediate value of correction rather than over time, the values will go from -35 to +35 and its normal to see them hit both those max during driving.
What you WANT to see, is when you hit any boost over 0-PSI, that both of these values are either 0 or a tiny variation, + or - 1.
If you see either of these values going wild either way when under boost pressure, it means you probably have some busted ringlands, or something is leaking somewhere.
It's a good telltale sign for ringland issues, and health of said.
Dude Currently my dam, fine knock learn, feedback knock and afr are perfect, same with intake and coolant temp but af correction and af learning are all over the place but always within the -12 to +12 for af learning and -35 to +35 for af correction while driving but they don’t read the same like you were describing while driving but at idle af correction sit around -.78 to +.78 and af leaning sits around 3ish
Nice video, like always.
2 things...
1. Fairly positive you won't need to have the access port tell you that you threw a rod through the block...
2. In/Hg is inches of Mercury. It's how you measure vacuum. 30 inches of Mercury is a perfect vacuum.
Thank you for clarifying had a total brain fart when shooting 😅 and hopefully a rod does not fly through someone's block but you wont need an accessport if it's too late 😅
One of the few Scooby channels hosts on the YT whose contents are 100% substance !! Very glad to hear everyone think the same way, benefit and enjoy your content which you so passionately shared....You truly deserve it !!
Thank you my man! Love being able to make these and help the community where i can 🔥😁
Just got my 2016 wrx right where I want it and this channel has been amazing and has taught me a lot.
Eyyyy glad the videos have helped 🥳
I just bought a new 2020 STI, this is my first one and I have learned so much about this car from your channel, thank you for your videos!!!
Congrats on the car and glad the videos have helped 😁🙏
Anybody can learn so much from your videos man. I currently do not have an AP or a tune, I still have warranty so really didn’t wanna mess with that to much but when it’s time it’s good to know I can always go back to your videos, no matter what I plan on doing with my car to find the info I need.
As always, great video and looking forward to the next!!
The info will be here waiting for you my friend! Dont blame you for not wanting to void the warranty. Appreciate the feedback and support my man! 🔥😁
Smeedia hell yeah!! Always excited to what’s next👍🏻
Best Subie channel on here
I’m so glad I found your channel. I can’t stand reading or even audible books 😂🤣 but for the past almost a week now I’ve been watching every one of your videos and absorbing so much detail and information it’s crazy. Thanks a lot man!!!
Hey dude, I’ve been watching your content for years now and finally installed an AP after having my 2018 STI since 2017. Just wanted to say thanks!
AF Learning 1 is also a good one to monitor. It will let you know if fuel is being added or removed which can clue you into intake leaks or failing fueling components or sensors.
Another solid value to moniter, I peek at it every now then 🔥but can also help to diagnose issues
getting an AP can be bewildering videos like this help a lot
Wanted to try and clear up the air a little bit with them but thank you for the feedback and support! 🔥
I'm glad I found this video cause I was low-key freaking out the other day when I got -1.4 on the feedback knock. Just bought my WRX and it had some mods done to it with all paperwork to show what was done...glad it's normal.
Totally normal values 🤌 congrats in the car btw!
Dude, thank you so much! I just bought my first 2018 WRX premium. I’m new to the car world and this video has helped me so much.
Eyyyy glad that it could help and congrats on the car!
Great info here bro, I really appreciate it. It's hard for me to trust what values are "normal" or not without hearing the throttle condition (WOT, light throttle, or idle). According to Cobb, the DAM is within "normal" behavior at 0.6-1.0 on the FA20DIT during all throttle conditions. On feedback and fine knock, 0 is normal at idle and corrections of 0-4 at other throttle conditions. I just installed mine last week with a Stage 1 +BigSF 93 tune and my DAM went to .75 and then .83 and back to .75 during some spirited driving today. Also seeing the feedback and fine knock hit -2.88 at throttle conditions other than idle. At idle they will always return to 0. I'm trying to understand what is truly normal, and what is potentially harmful. Lol sorry for the long comment, but you seem to know your stuff, and I could always use some input.
No worries! If I ever see DAM drop and feedback knock increase its a good sign something is going on. I don't generally pay much attention to fine knock learn or AF correction but they Re also good gouges to keep an eye on. If you see increased knock without DAM changing it could be a rattle, heat shield thats loose, road noise or bumps. Don't let the anxiety port push you too far. Just use it as a reference
@@Smeedia that's helpful, I figured if there was something serious going on, a CEL would have BEEN showed up, correct?
Yessir 😁
@@Smeedia so an update, my DAM went back to 1.000, feedback and fine knock don't fluctuate nearly as often, and this is while still driving spirited lol. I guess the ECU had to learn :)
Glad that it corrected itself 😁🔥
This just educated me so well. Just got my first subie and accessport was the first mod I got , thank you for a great video
Glad it helped and congrats on the car! 😁
Dude thanks for this! After my ProTune I had no idea what to look for in my Accessport once they hooked it up!
P.S. got in an accident last night with my Celica (100% other drivers fault) and this really helped when laying in bed this morning recovering. Keep the content coming man it means a lot to people like me
Really appreciate the feedback and the support, sorry to hear about the celica and accident 😫 hopefully nothing to messed up and you have a speedy recovery. Glad that the video helps to understand the Valuss a little more 😁
Fantastic video, i bought a WRX, and i received a cobb AP has gift, wish i can buy a sti, unfortunately no longer on prod. I look everywhere on net and you tube to figure out the AP. I watch your videos, simply outstanding man!!! Keep going on making such informative and interesting content! Thank you….
I wish I had watched your videos, before spending a fortune on my 2015 STI. So much helpful information. Appreciate everything brother 🙏🙏
Glad that they're helping my man 🙏🙏🙏
AF Learning 1 is also important. It shows if you have a vacuum/boost leak, if your fuel system has issues, or if your MAF/O2 sensor takes a crap.
Also a good value to monitor 🔥 perfect for trouble shooting also
@@Smeedia Exactly
As a new scooby owner and a new accessport owner, this is great stuff
Eyyyy, congrats on the new car 🔥
Your channel is growing so fast! I’m so happy for you, great content, keep it coming!
It's very exciting! The support from everyone is more than motivating. Appreciate the support! 😁
“Inch hilligrams” I’m dead 😂 it’s inches of Mercury, which is used for pressure. (Hg is the symbol for mercury on the periodic table)
Was having a brain fart that night 🤣🤣🤣
no, it shall now forever be known as Inch Hilligrams from this point on.
This is a super helpful video for AP noobs- like me. Very wise stuff. Knowledge is power. Thanks!

That’s basically the same set up although I do have afr correction. Good insight on the set up! Great video!
AFR correction is another good one to have pulled up. Appreciate the feedback 🔥🙌
Smeedia yeah haha so figured out I had a exhaust leak that was probably causing dam drop
Best subie channel on youtube hands down. I hope it takes off
Thank you! Appreciate the support and the kind words 🔥😁
Just go my Cobb AP today from Yimi Sports!
Great video brotha! Keep them coming!
Exciting! It's a fun little device to play with. Appreciate the support 🔥😁
Just walked through this on mine with your vid. Thanks!!!
Glad it helped 😁🔥
This video is just perfect thanks brooo
Anytime, glad I could get it out there for everyone! 😁
According to Cobs website "zDEBUG are a series of monitors that are occasionally used by COBB staff to aid in diagnosis. Should support require their use, COBB will specify which monitors to log." So i would assume the zDEBUG is for COBB only diagnostics.
Thanks for pulling that! Had never seen those parameters before.
@@Smeedia no problem dude! I may throw on a couple of those on my AP and see what they're actually monitoring
Just subscribed! Your vids are very informative and well made AND Im a fellow Washingtonian.. Im in Renton. Well done sir
Eyyyy local! Appreciate the support my friend 💪
First accessport for my new 2020 WRX en route! Will be referencing this video a few times, I'm sure 8) Thank you!
I was driving today. dam dropped to .859, then I had a constant fine knock learn at and low load 1.05 to 0 to .37 constant at 2 and half rpm never going back to 0. Never had feedback knock 2.45 but never changed in a 45 min drive
- 2.45 I meant
Thanks man just went stage 1+ on my sti and was trying to get a good explanation on the different gauges and what to monitor
Glad that the video helped 🙏😁
How’s it been so far?
@@GabrielGonzalez-pn6dp no complaints. Felt like a different car after
Another great video man. Another gauge u should rly consider getting is a
Oil Temp/Oil Pressure gauge.
Thank you! And I don't see a need for oil temp in the car, but we have an AEM Oil pressure gauge already installed. One of my previous install videos 😅
And subbed! Maybe those knock settings could have saved me.. but am rocking iag stage 2 short block now!
Good block choice! 🔥😁
Also appreciate the support!!!
@@Smeedia Yea, I was trying to decide between that and the "Tuff" SKU. Sounded like Stage 2 was all I "needed". At some point, I'll head back in for the tune against the re-build!
Planning on buying a used 2015 sti and I’m trying to see if I can use the port to my advantage and best of my ability . See if anything’s wrong . Thanks for the vid
Anytime and hopefully your able to find the right one!
I installed an APv3 on my 19 Sti this morning. I run 94 OCT which Cobb says is like ACN91 trash fuel. Fair enough. Subie mechanic at the dealership who owns a 20 STi tells me..."never run lower than 94 man". I install Cobb's Stage 1 ACN91/CAD94 LGW map and on the way to work this morning, I notice I'm getting -1.4 feedback knock, DAM is steady at 1.00. Hit a safe little dead end street to see what is happening at WOT. It hit 18.2lbs of boost which is a bit high for LWG, feedback knock and DAM are steady, -1.4 (I watched it hit that live right around 5000k) and DAM at 1.00. Understanding thanks to you, that hitting -1.4 is "normal", should I even bother trying the Normal Waste Gate map? I plan to get a pro dyno tune, but back logs are ridiculous. I am installing the SF+ intake this weekend and will go to the appropriate tune, starting at low waste. Should I go to 91OCT tune? 91 Shell V-Power and Canadian Tire 91 fuel is top tier rated, but it's 0 ethanol which I damn well know is better for knock reduction.
Good stuff as always brother, thanks again for your time and the awesome info my G , getting ready to swap out my fuel pump so i can run flex fuel 🔥💯😤😎✌🏽
Ohhhh you'll love the flex!
i just picked up a 2015 WRX and started modifying it. This was an awesome video for me. I'm also curious about what mount you have for your AccessPort?
I use the schoe vent mount 😁been an awesome mount that holds the AP!

Keep up the good vids!! Should do some POV once in awhile!
Once the weather gets a little better we will be 😁
Awsome Subaru Channel! So Good!
❤❤❤
When I got my AP I thought the -1.4 knock was the worst- stressed me out to the point I was monitoring all cylinders 😂
Now it’s just another “small number” and realising the heat shield on the headers was loose 😂
But only a -1.4 to -2.80 on my wrx at 125k miles isn’t bad!
I think we all go through the mini heart attack when we first see it 😂
Love your videos man! I didn't know that you lived here in WA too! I live in enumclaw I hope I get to meet you in person one day man! Keep up the great videos!
Eyyy appreciate the support and not too far away at all! 🔥 was in enumclaw today actually lol
My dam went to .750 today and anxiety went through the roof. Knock is normal at 1.41 or 2.81 so I’m not going to worry too much. Hoping just fuel issue or cause it was wicked hot today
Just keep an eye on it and monitor, based off those readings I'd say bad fuel
This may be a stupid question, but why monitor boost or coolant temp, when they are already on the dash? Are the readings on the analog coolant temp, or digital boost gauge unreliable?
Also, you're videos have been incredibly informative! And you taking the time to individually respond to comments and questions is awesome!
The coolant temp is one I moniter ever now and then after dlong something to the cooling system just to make sure temps are good from a data standpoint. As for boost, I dont trust the stock boost gauge lol
Bro your videos are fucking awesome I have been watching them all day and I don't even drive a Subaru lol wished I could find some honda tuning videos this in depth and explantitive
Eyyyy appreciate the support 🔥 gotta be some out there 😖
I follow your TH-cam channel I bought a 18 sti about 2 months ago o have been in love with these cars my entire life but I know absolutely nothing about cars in general I’ve learned so much from your channels and I go with your opinion and direction over anyone else who maybe does things different keep making videos bro
I do have a question and I can’t seem t find an answer anywhere I have an 18 all stock no mods I bought it used an old man had it ans it only had 40 k on it o got my access port in a few days ago I’m on stage one + sf on 93 gas my dam and feed bak knock along with fine knock learn have been at 0 they have not moved once in days until today I get getting reading of 1.4 consistently in 3 hear when I get to around 6k rpms it’s adjusts it’s self goes back to 0 immediately same with fine knock learn dam is 1 that has not moved at all thank you baby Jesus bc I love this car. I named her Stephanie like I said not once did I get anything from either knock sensor until today. I wouldn’t be concerned but it’s pretty consistent it will go to one 1.4 then 1.05 then .7 then ,35 and feed back knock fixes it. And it will be fine and then later it will do it again it’s also been very hot these last few days my intake temp will be around 80 idel and drops as I drive sometimes low like 30. Air fuel is text book coolant also text book:.
Also I’m installing a Cobb air oil separator
3 port boost controller
Turbo inlet pipe
Bpv
Intake (already installed)
Then a invidia catted divorcée wastegate dp with a r400 Gemini cat back
And fuel system
Cobb pump
Cobb regular kit
And new injectors
Problem is it’s all coming at different times everything but the fuel and cat back I have I’m looking at 2 weeks for them to get here so we’re installing the
Aos
Boost controller
Bov
Inlet hose
And intake
Then in a week or so after
Dp
Catback
Fuel system
My tuner said he would bend me a map so I can do the first set of installs and drive with them until I get the
Other stuff on and then will send another map so I can drive it there to get the tune I hiysss my 2 questions are
1 my is my knock acting up now
2 is it smart to drive with one set of mods on and not the others even with a map for it ? I have typed this question in a million different ways and can’t dine and answer you’d a pro with this shit can you please help me last thing I want to do is damage this car I got a separate extended warranty for this car to cover my ass bc I know sub will void it
Can you help me what the answer to the knock issue it always ones in 3rd ay 6k and 4th around the same all other heats are fine again it’s been hot and I used a different gas station this time it said 93 but it’s probably watered down should I be worried
And should I do one set of mods then the other ?
If you could answer that It would be helpful and put me at ease I’m a worry wart and especially with my car I vacuum it every other day wash it every week change oil at 2700 miles
For the knock issue OTS maps are just prone to it happening, a loose heat shild or even. Pot hole can set it off. -1.40 & -2.80 are normal to see as well if you start seeing your DAM drop and feedback knoxk kncrease then you have an issues. As for the installs I wojld do them all at once but thats just my personal preference for installing parts. Just stay out of boost and you should be fine until your protune
Smeedia_ I want to buy I’m so impatient so the map that I’ll be using until the down pipe and exaust goes on will probably only let me boost Norman stock numbers until the exhaust goes on and the fuel system
This would keep me from putting to much on my bottom end and not screw with my timing and fuel pump right? I’d that’s not the case then I will just wait it out
Smeedia also my dam has no moves from 1 since install either has both my knock sensors until today and that bugged me I’m a hypochondriac when it comes to my car
I wouldent even go into boost and just play it safe, base maps are just suppose to get you from point A to B 😅
I wish I could fit the fine knock learning monitor in but I’m out of room :(. Feedback knock, DAM, fuel pressure final, coolant temp, ethanol final, boost, and a wideband AFR mounted. I recommend anyone running a Cobb flex fuel kit to monitor ethanol final. I’ve had trouble with these kits a few times and the car will think it has E10 in it when it really has a much higher concentration of ethanol. VERY DANGEROUS! I guess you would see it in your AFR but still! Nice video keep up the great work!
Appreciate the feedback, 🔥 yes once you swap over to ethonal there are more parameters to moniter that can consume space 😅
@@Smeedia what’s ideal range for “Ethanol Final “ ? Running E85
Amazing video thank you learning something new with every video
Thank you! Appreciatw the feedback and support 🙌
Should worry about dynamic adv leaning? 0.50
Where can I look to see what the values should be for a 2020 wrx..I looked on cobb and I can't find the list..im looking for hopefully a list that says what each gauge monitor is with what the associated value is next to it...
Just had a protune done and I have no clue what I'm looking at lol
Do you have a video of a reliability build? Like if you were to modify a car but go for the best reliability for the wrx/sti platform what mod path you would specifically do and specifically avoid? Would be curious to see that!
I've got you 🙌

Can a loose brake calliper be picked up as a knock by the sensor? I am getting DAM values in the range of .37 to .44. I have a 2015 WRX Limited, and I just bought a Cobb access port and I am using the 91 octane map. The car runs well, and certainly runs much better than it did with the stock map. From the video and the comments I can appreciate that the DAM is very important, but that it can also be thrown off by noise coming from loose heat shields, etc. unfortunately, no one has been able to figure out where the clunk comes from when I go over a bump without the brakes applied. It looks like I’m stuck with this clunk for some time. Could that be throwing off the DAM or is that range of low values so concerning that I should immediately get it looked at? The only other thing I’ve noticed since changing the matter is that my gas mileage is about 15% worse.
So I have an ‘05 that’s had quite the amount of work done to it prior to my purchasing of it. It was built and tuned professionally and the car drives great. I just learned about DAM and decided to put that on my V3 monitor. It reads 1.0 like it should for every other sti that’s not my generation. What would be a reasonable explanation for this? Is it fair to think that maybe the ECU was changed in this car with the IAG short block? It’s a Tuff 2 short block so idk if that build would represent itself differently to the access port or what. Idk. Just looking for some guidance to know how I should be looking at this
Just got pro-tuned before the cobb update goes into effect and tuners said if I have issues let him know but he set my Ap to read Intake temp manifold, Dam, feedback knock the other 3 is Ethanol Final and oil/coolant temp.
Should I switch those out and what would I look for? The intake temp manifold is the one I have no idea where it should be hanging at. It’s a 2019 Wrx.
Those monitors are fine, intake temp should be abive ambient. If idling it will start to climb. But when driving it maybe be around +10 from outside temp
@@Smeedia it came out of the Dyno at 144 and been there all day and in traffic got as high as 180? Is that normal? I was tuned by Taylor from snail so I’d assume he know what he’s doing since he put me on flex fuel E60. Been driving 400 miles since Az back to Cali no problems so far. Maybe I’m just paranoid lol
I just bought a 2021 wrx only have 4K left on the car as well as 4K miles on it 😂 I installed some axel backs and bought the V3 AP and it’s literally just sitting here because I’m not going to settle for a ots tune or a Etune and being in SoCal there’s really only 1 place I know being a reputable pro-tuner shop, I’m so crossed between if I should stay within warranty or just void the thing 😓 Im also skeptical on a 91 tune, to my understanding FA’s do better on flex fuel? Idk so much anxiety, so many questions 😅
Etunes are fantastic options my man! My 650WHP 05 STI was Etuned and it was perfect. Just need to contact a few e tuners that can help! But if you want a dyno tune that's also a good option 🔥
They do love some E85 🔥
Love your justification for why you have a gauge lol
Can you do a video more explaining the fine knock learn and feedback knock plz
Yes I can 🙏
@@Smeedia thank you so much. I have aos , coolant mod and stage 1 plus ots tune on my 2020 Sti , my feedback knock is at 0.00 but my fine knock learn is at -2.80 through -3.85. DAM has stayed 1.000.

Lol the struggle is real on mondays 😅
What about sport and sport sharp? After a reflash.... do these settings do anything? 2020 STi

should i be on low waste gate or high waste gate stage 1+ tune? i have the sf intake, awe catback exhaust and an IAG AOS. 2021 sti
Personally on OTS Maps I'd say low wastegate
I just got my accessport today! Im so freaking excited, now just need a downpipe and Ill be ready to schedule my protune. Do you ever use the anti-theft MAP? Im guessing flashing the ECU every night before I go to bed with it isnt realistic, lol. Im just paranoid where I live, I had my 2003 Bugeye stolen last year from in front of my house. Which did eventually lead to my 2017 WRX, so good and bad.
I wouldent suggest doing it every night but I mean you can if you'd like to lol. And congrats on the AP! Fun Jd helpful tool to be able to use!!!!
Hey man
I need help… 😞
So I purchased my STI 2017 not to long ago.
And I just got my accessport. I installed it and everything else as far as values look good but my DAM is at 0.500 not at 1.000
Car drives great! No knocks anywhere. I havent filled my car with gas yet, and the dealer from where I purchased did an oil change and filled up my tank of gas full.
Thats where Im at right now. Engines is fully stock and I havent touched anything or upgraded anything since I bought it…
Could this be that dealer prob used cheap gas??? Please help
Thanks!!
Hey quick question I have no feedback knock but I’m getting fine back learn at 3k rpm’s around 2k and my dam isn’t dropping but I’m getting -1.40 and -0.35
Normally values, nothing to stress 🤝
I’m new to all of this and was wondering if you have a video of what to monitor when on flex fuel. My damn changes when ever I give it gas and goes back to zero when off of it. Currently my af learn 1 is positive and negative often and has been low double digits.
What values are you seeing in AF learn?
@@Smeedia I saw -34 and positive 30s last week and then I cleaned my mass air flow sensor, the map sensor and my air filters. Now the car is running low double digits but only sometimes.
@@Smeedia also did not get a check engine light
InHg=inches of Mercury. 1 InHg= (apx) 2.036 PSI

@@Smeedia np great info man
Please do an overview of the datalog and help us interpret them
I can make a video on that 😁🔥
Love watching the vids I have a 2003 WRX with stage 2 and a Cobb tuner, however have you ever had a issue with the access port not turning on, now I haven't drove the car in a year but I did turn it on from time to time and the port worked but now it Dosent turn what's your best advise for it and I have called Cobb but they always seem to be closed when I call
It does that with my Golf R where it won't always auto turn on 😤
Is it not turning on at all or just sometimes?
Not turning on at all it turn on once about 6 months ago but hasn't since and it use to work great
Hey! What about AFR at wot? Mine drops to 10.5ish is that normal? Isn't that super rich? I got stage 1 Cobb ots
What’s up brother! I want to know how i can get data log and visualize gauges without having to download a map…. I was running stage 1 from cobb but i got a pro tune directly to the icu. But I’m trying to use the accessport but it won’t let me bypass the part i have to download a map from it
Are you referring to downloading thr map from the car to the AP or from thr AP to the car? 🙏
zDEBUG is likely developer tools that the Cobb people can use to monitor other development-related variables during the development of the Access Port
How about AF Learning 1 Smeedia? I've seen some people suggest this. Can you explain why/what it does?
Yo!!! What wheels are you running? Those rims look sooo clean!
Qork emotion D9R 🤙
Hi
I have my wrx 2013 already tuned last year . So i changed FRONT INTERCOOLER so now D.A.M is 0.560 .
What's need to do ...
For mine I use boost , speed , knock feedback, knock learn , AF ratio and dam I use to run RPMS but had to make room for the knocks after watching this
So I setup my accessport like this and while I was driving I noticed my D.A.M dropped to 0.812 and I also noticed the fine knock learn switching to -2. Something I forgot the other two but is this something I should be concerned about ? I’ve also noticed hot air coming out my vents without the ac on im concered I might have a leak need some help please
So, my accessport is read -8 on the feed back gauge, the fine knock learn gauge read +2 but both gauges went right back to 0 and it usually stays at 0. I should mention that I had my car tested for knock, and my motor read 150 during the compression test on all cylinders. Should I be worried?
So 2 question I have
My Feedback knock is sometimes dropping to -1.4 or -2.8 which you said is normal. However my DAM stays at like 0.94. Is this something I should worry about??
My second question is I was told that Oil Temp is something important to pay attention to so I’m wondering if that’s something I should watch because I don’t have an Oil Temp monitor (unless it’s under a different name)
If your just daily driving the car I wouldent stress oil temp too much. If your out at a track and sending it, then I'd add an pil pressure and temp gauge.
As for your DAM it should be at 1, try reseting ECU learning 🙏
Thanks for good tip. I just set mine up like yours.
Glad the video helped 🔥😁
I see you comment on most comments you receive, no matter how old the video may be, but do you have any recommendations on etunes? I'm nothing more than a "stage 1+" with the Cobb ots 91 tune. (Live in SD, can't get any 93 around here. Looking to go e85 sooner or later, but the kits are spendy). Anyway, I don't trust the ots times too much, but don't have too many places around me that can tune subies properly.

At idle my air fuel ratio is bouncing from 14.36 to 14.24 any idea what i can do to fix this or if its bad?
