well since I'm getting a custom tune (only the 2nd in the USA and the 1st to actually be dynoed for proof) do I get to name it myself?

Roast Beef maybe?

Well, enemies maybe, but how can you compare the two, really? I mean, you pay $XXXX more for the Dinan and less power for peace of mind.

I was actually looking into the S3 tune, even though it's quite a bit of $$, just for the peace of mind aspect. But, the Procede and JB3 offer more for so much less....

I cant argue with the jb3 output results

but ill say, they are pumping the output and still have no active timing control. (this has been verified now) it relies on the stock ecu to manage it. Which has been fine so far, and I dont know enough to say the engine is knocking. So for now no problems.

But once you get past comparing the two tunes for their output numbers (which are very close in most cases and for most drivers the results are absolutely a drivers race)...the features and ease of use one offers, are greatly different than the other.

-JB3 you pay for each update "chip" that terry sends to you
-JB3 does not have BT features/code clearing w/o BT tool
-JB3 does not have built in boost guage (now or in the works)

the price difference is now a non-issue, and one tune offers expansion and soon to be ignition adjustment as well, while the other tune has good output currently, but little to no foreseeable future on its current hardware and a questionable safety mechanism.

to me, the doubt of safety (even if it turns out its fine), and the lack of upgrades instantly, is something im not willing to deal with...

but this is my logic, and for this reason I bought the procede, I cant say the jb3 hasnt had impressive dyno #s and runs @ the track...but engine temps and oil temps are logged higher on jb3, and on a car, stress=heat...thats a basic function

to me, that means the jb3 stresses the car more than the procede, and that makes a difference in my book when I consider my purposes as a daily driver (if I was a race driver, I wouldnt care since fixing things here and there is a non issue and just part of the job)

Maybe you could be really gay and name it Bucky.

But no for real, I'm eager to see what you find out. These custom tunes, are these the flashes everyone is talking about on this thread?

You make good points, and those same points are probably why I'll go Procede (that, and I use and abuse CAN protocol and hardware all day every day at work). Although I don't know what my CAN knowledge would ever do for me, it's nice to be familiar with what it does....
