as far as BT tool...with the canbus upgrade, you DO NOT need a BT tool...the procede software reads the codes and you can sort through them and clear them. No bt scanner needed, its built into the procede

Bingo. I'd go V3 CANbus over BT/JB3 at this point.

i dunno with the software its still like 1400 bucks. you can get a lot of mods for that when you realize a flash is only ~800 with everything. but we'll see

procede v3 = 1095 + canbus (65) = 1160

thought the canbus was 300 MY BAD lol

where is it for 895?!?

For convenience's sake, maybe. But from what you guys tell me about them having a tool to erase and reload in your possession, and for how much you've posted, I'd take that in a second. Waiting to see, though, if it is what it is made out to be....

Yeah some people were having problems with paint, and dealers have gone ahead and redone it.

The dealerships giving guys with mods a hard time about warranty issues

this is a question I'm unable to answer

would be curious to see the gains/safety mechanisms the flash has in place?

I know too much about the procede, but not much about the available flashes...but there are some things I would be interested to look for in the flash software to see if its got it...

as far as ease of use/features, I think youre hard pressed to beat the procede b/c of the built in BT/dash guage and map updates/changes via your glovebox usb...but hey, maybe the flash manufs will come out with an easy to use tool that does that stuff too, would be cool

My SA at Bill Jacobs was a cock.

I'm thinking of trying to switch over to Laurel.

J BONE · 04-07-2009, 09:57 PM

Nebster · 04-07-2009, 09:57 PM

I haven't heard anything area-specific, but I've been waiting to see where the good places are....

timtech · 04-07-2009, 09:58 PM

I'm thinking of hitting up Great Lake Dragaway on Thursday. 5:00pm-9:00pm. The weather looks like it's going to be a good day for running.

I know there will be a couple Procede Rev II's with CANbus there.

Then Saturday is the dyno.

I think you can go anywhere. I got my oil changed at a different place then i bought it at. Don't think this is an issue, could be wrong though.

http://www.vishnutuning.com/V3PNPRace.htm

canbus for those that dont have it from their harness is a $15 upgrade as well (not 65)
