Procede or JB3

I'm debating on what i should get now i'm not gonna be racing or anything just would like to have the pedal ready to slam and kick back my head... but at the same time i want something that wont f* up my car... and comments or opinions would be helpful... and one other thing i noticed my stock air box is way faster on the highway than my dual cone intakes anyone else notice that?

Wrong section. Post in the turbo section, they'll know. I'm guessing they will say jb, though.

You picked the two most popular tunes so can't really go wrong with either. The JB3 gives you great kick in the pants performance at a great price so in my book thats a win win

If you have any JB3 questions feel free to post or PM me

Mike


Mods can you move this to the Turbo Forum

If you don't want any complications or headaches, go for a JB+ or a SSTT.
With a JB+ you can change your power output up to 70whp, or with the SSTT, you can only go to about 40whp.

If you go down the road of a proceede or a JB3, they can get you to 100whp, but I would highly recommend you get a BT Scanner to scan for error codes before you bring your car in for service.
With the other tunes I mentioned, you don't need to worry about error codes if you keep it around 50whp.

I currently have a JB3, love the power, and would not go back to the SSTT.
I also have a BT scanner though to check for codes before I go to the dealer.

As far as "fckng up my car", it doesnt do any noticeable damage other than reduce the longivity of the turbos since they would be running at twice the psi (from 8.5 to 15-16psi).

Also the JB+ and the SSTT take 30 seconds to install while the JB3 and the proceede take anywhere from 20 min (JB3) to 40 min (proceede)

JB3 is the way to go, easy install, flexible maps and well regarded on the forums.

No....

JB3 is FASTER!





I'm curious to try out the PROceed but I hear the install is a bit more difficult and takes twice as long. (40min)
Also, I don't feel like hooking my car up to a laptop to change settings that I am not familiar with.
I've gotten comfy with the JB3.
You want 8.5psi, you hold the pedal pressed.
You want 14psi, you press it down 6 times.
LOL
