i don't have to. come take a drive in my car and thats all you'll need.

plus with them being local and them basically having endless support for the 335i its a no-brainer.

i've had a jb3, wasn't impressed. and with you not having supporting mods theres no point in spending the extra money for the procede.

And even with the procede integrated BT tool i wouldn't feel comfortable unless i had a gt1. Nothing against the procede i just wouldn't feel comfortable.

ultimately do what you want to do, do what makes you comfortable, its your car.

They're not my sponsor, i paid for my tune, but i promote the products i believe in.

If you want to keep it simple and just want a little boost from stock, you can go with one of the simple tunes like the SSTT2 or the JB+.

I used to have the SSTT. It was more of a stepping stone. I loved it at first as I could feel the difference, but I eventually wanted more and sold it.

I drove Boner's car with SSTT on it and even coming from my tuned 328 I wasn't THAT impressed. The LET tune impressed the shit outta me though.

the procede comes in one flavor now, the Rev II (w/canbus), it clears codes if you have them and lets you read them as well. The next added feature is going to be a digital boost gauge where your mpg readout is and autotuning, so you dont have to switch stage maps, instead itll just modify the parameters as needed as you improve your mods. These features will all function on the rev II w/canbus (the only one you can purchase new now)

you can run it with no mods, or change the stages via your laptop as you add mods. The install was easy, and I have a USB cable in my glovebox so I can just plug a laptop in and update maps when they come out.

the install has a video somewhere on this forum, I literally just played the video and went step by step, took about 25 mins to complete the first time through

The info can be found here...

I'll be there, though not with the 3.

If some of you make it, maybe meet some of you finally.

Sounds cool... have fun
