Does anyone know if the Cobb AP has Cold Start/Warm Start options on the OTS tunes?
In short, yes. There are a crap load of tables in ATR which reference temperature (coolant temp, intake air temp, boosted air temp etc). There are also changes such as idle rpm when the engine is cold. The OTS maps use all of this.
However, a good custom tune can deal with the fluctuations better (eg I did logs in temps from -6 to 38 degrees for my etune to guarantee the tune was stable in every temp).
The start up tables aren't exposed in ATR like they are in versatune
@Lachlan
so, can inject more fuel when starting and warming up
as for what/how to use this, i know it's from a honda website, but it's still an interesting read:

The capability of VT and AP software seem to be a lot better then the products pro dyno tune places use, that results in these places not embracing these options in favor of endorsing the services/products they use.
I know most tuners near me embrace the COBB accessport and either use ecutek or mazedit to fine tune. Those are both not bad software packages as long as they keep them up to date I suppose...
It's hard to know which is better or worse without being able to see what tables are exposed...
I think the AP hides/combines are number of tables compared to VT, and when I asked tunehouse if I could look at the tables in ecutek (2ish years ago), they said no...
VT launch control > AP launch control though... At least with mega spool, it uses ignition cut rather than fuel cut...

Thanks @SarcasticOne I didn't even know those existed. I wonder if they are just hidden but still populated with default values in ATR or if they are additional functionality only in VT? I actually assume @stockholm question was more about tuning for different weather rather than cold starts, but not sure. This VT thing is looking more interesting. Do you find mega spool any better on a FWD where you have sfa traction?

Ah, I thought you had jumped ship. Ha ha
Doesn't ATR 'magically create' the extra rpm limits used for launch control/ffs?
And yeah... but his next post made me think it was perhaps more general since 'handle winter/summer conditions better'.

Ah, think that might be some custom code, but know space is very limited on our ECUs

Lol that sounds like a "great" feature haha - Large turbos full spool @ low rpms. Are they insane?
