JB3 Wear and tear on the 335i

FotiosF90M5 · 02-22-2010, 04:26 PM

I have 52k on my car right now. Ive been tuned since 3k. Ive had the turbo tuner, jb2, jb3, and procede and I have always driven the car aggressively. Its doing great so I think running a tune is fine if you follow the guidelines within reason.

Look at the Alpina with 360 and 400 hps..

keep it coming. its awesome to hear success stories of these tunes.

there are so many horror stories out there, but I guess people are more interested in reporting negative news vs. good news!

also what does meth injection do? Just for really high boost? Im guessing it cools down temps but i have no experiance with this stuff. Do you have to refill it? Is it a good or bad mod?
