Im in longisland, i have a full bolt/Meth JB3'ed 335i if you wanna go for a quick spin...

And it SUPER EASY to remove and delete all codes prior to service.

+1 I've witnessed Qmax's car and that shit is CRAZY!

What are your plans for the car in terms of mods?

Mike

Okay, first off thanks for all the responses LOL, jeez get off of a 9 hr shift and I come back to 3 pages to read, lucky me =P....

Anyways yea I will not be going with Procede, so lets not steer my topic away, nothing against Shiv or anything...but if you want to go on a Procede rant, take it to a thread that states "Procede" or V4.

Modwise

ALOT)...lol well I already have the Jb3...not installed yet but going to this Tuesday along with a Injen DCI...then FMIC, oil cooler, downpipes.*sighs there goes my money*

I think I'm going to go with Jb3 for now...seems as if Giac and the whole flashing back to stock...I have to travel about an hour to get it stock again...which kinds of turns me the other way.

Yea and sry I know these kinds of threads doesn't really give me an "answer" but more of "what people have is what they recommend" so you will have your Jb3 fans and then your Procede fans...

Also, I'd like to make a shoutout to Mike@N54tuning, he is a great guy, BUY FROM HIM!

and also Alpinewhiteboy for having a nice white e92 like mine

Not to start anything but what are your reasons for not wanting a proceed? Just so you know, I have neither.

Probably num 1 reason = JB3 was already purchased so he might as well see what its about. Rather then spend $1200 on the PROcede

PandaBear · 07-26-2010, 01:15 AM

1.I purchased it already.
2. Mike is cool.
3. Terry is cooler.
4. Everyone I know has a JB3, so why go on Team Red when the rest of your team is Blue?
5. I like pandas.

wareagle900 · 07-26-2010, 01:26 AM

Mmmhhmmmm...... Yes pandas....

So basically just cause..... And pandas! Gotcha

Jeff@TopGearSolutions · 07-26-2010, 01:35 AM

If everyone jumps off a building...... Yeaaaaaa

PandaBear · 07-26-2010, 02:25 AM

I HATE, WHEN people compare shit to "oh so if everyone jumps off a building" how does this compare to jumping off a building...lol?

Your explanation for why you bout the jb3 sort of came off as that you bought it just because others near you bought it...... Not for it's features or performance.

The JB3 is Panda safe, and no Pandas were hurt during its development so its the obvious choice for the OP

lol

I also think reason 2 and 3 are good

Nice good chance to try out all my new bolt ons =)

PandaBear · 07-26-2010, 10:06 AM

OH HWLL YEA< i'm making an event now guys lets DO THIS SHIT!!!!!!

AltecBX · 07-26-2010, 10:17 AM

I'm heading to tx. I'll like to meet u jb3 guys when I get back at the end of aug. Hopefully JB will have something out by then regarding canbus.

Daya · 07-26-2010, 11:20 AM

I waited specifically for GIAC to come out with their flash before I tuned my car due to their solid reputation with Porsche/Audi/VW. I have been loving S1 since day one and am patiently waiting the public release of S2 and the mapswitcher

The power delivery is very smooth and better than stock IMO, I have had ZERO issues and have been running the flash for almost a year

PandaBear · 07-26-2010, 11:32 AM

yea, i'm thinking I'm going to go w/ jb3 until my warranty runs out then switch if I'm not happy with Jb3 by then.
