Tune on top of the Flash?

I noticed some people run tune (JB4) on top of the flash tune (Cobb)...why exactly are we doing this? What are the benefits of paying for double tunes??? Any issues when using them as a stack? I currently have Procede and just curious.

Thanks,

If you're on the stock turbos there's really little point in stacking them. There are threads on other forums discussing possible advantages of running a piggy with a flash stacked with larger than stock turbos. Search is your friend.

OP- if you have a Procede, there is no need to stack tunes.

The stacking of the tunes is for flash users that want the features of the JB4 to integrate meth or to increase boost on the top end. I'm not entirely sure if they ironed out all the issues or how well it works yet but its not necessary if you are on the PROcede.

The reason for stacking is when you want to run a flash tune you are happy with 100% of the time, but want to increase how aggressive the tune is when meth is flowing. Or simply to get the gauge hijacking that the piggyback offers.

For what it's worth, I still think running one tune is better than stacking. Your Procede should be just fine for all your needs.
