Diesel has a higher energy content than gasoline, so obviously if you want to go faster you should just start filling up at the diesel pump. Problem solved.

gallon of gas= 114,000 BTU's
gallon of diesel= 129,500 BTU's

clearly diesel is the winner drain that tank and fill er up and call it a day you won't even need a tune

I had the procede V2 on my last 335 with zero mods, and the procede was incredible on the power gains and over all. I sold it when my lease was up. now I picked up an e93 and have your same predicament. the only thing pulling me to the jb4 is that I was blow away by all the cool customizations I just saw on the you tube video. Don't know much on the procede V5 if it does all that cool boost gauge, map switching on the steering wheel stuff. shit looks pretty sweet. :-) I'm not planning on going crazy on the mods neither....

Procede for me, but like others have said, we are nearly all biased based on what is currently installed in our cars. I feel, in my not-so-humble opinion, that Shiv/Vishnu is an innovator while the JB is a copycat, but that's just what I can gather from reading biased posts from both sides. I also like that crank signal modification (timing control) is native in the Procede while the JB needs the CPS module to do it.

Talk to Jeff @ Topgearsolutions. He has combo deals on bolt-ons + tune of your choice. He has all of them on the shelf and is nothing short of an immense help on the forums here.

Both JB and Procede have on-the-fly map switching - JB does it through steering wheel buttons, Procede does it through the cruise control stalk or DTC button (double-click). Both have gauge "hijacking".

Since "money is not an option" buy both, then sell the one u don't like.

I think this is the first "which tune should I buy" thread I have ever seen.. :

Lol, glad to see you giving an unbiased opinion. And by the way, "respectable and stand up guy" don't need to be separated, using one would have covered your dislike for shiv.

Not using a comparison but food for thought. You do know steve jobs was a huge douche bag, but I still love Apple products.

Dude, why bother coming on here then, you always bs about the tunes. There is more debate on this forum about tunes than the other one. You don't think it's odd that no one on the other boards even talks about the single turbo upgrade even though its the biggest thing to happen to this platform since the first tune came out.

Now you tell me which forum is more biased....

Yes, you can. Both tunes have evolved to seem very safe at this point, just don't try running more boost than you can for only having a tune. I would recommend also getting a dci along with the tune if you're on a budget, it's only about 100 more.

Ya just read the book, Jobs was a jerk and a freak. I say this is as I type on my iPhone and have an iPad laying next to me.

I also started my post saying that they are both good...

Thanks for the grammar lesson tho.

Its probably best you get in touch with me and I can go over pros and cons of both tunes and find out what your looking for in a tune as well as your budget and we can weigh out the best solution.

I'm just a PM away.

I have JB4 & i absolutely Love it! it has a lot of features! & the best thing is the steering wheel controls, you can turn the it on and off as you like & switch maps on the go, also it has a map 8 economy mode now so you get amazing gas milage if you need it. but the power gains are really good!
