I thought this thread would have been closed, so I didn't have to keep up with 322 pages.

Actually you need to go over them twice and be sure to respond to the question in the second post.

Holy crap, a JB3 for $240 (http://www.e90post.com/forums/showthread.php?t=251814) , these things are dropping in price like crazy. Wonder if that many people are going for the new CANbus or just waiting for the flashes?

probably the pin out vrs. which is significantly cheaper than the pnp.

plus i wouldn't trade my stage 1 tune for anything, even if it doesn't make as much power as the cede, the driveability is perfect!

Yeah it is the pin out, pnp wouldn't be that cheap yet, but not really scary as far as install. Now I would still rather a flash for myself. Just thought it was interesting how fast the prices were dropping on SSTTs and JB products.

My problem with flashes (at the moment) is that your boost can be seen at the ODBII port.. That means every service you will want to flash back to stock just to play it safe (and hopefully they are around if you break down somewhere). Once there is a solid at home flash tool, that will change everything.

but I can be very wrong. I'm still learning

Hey Ben....detailing question for you.

Looking for a better/faster way to clean/polish my wheels. Any recommendations on one of the poweball attachments for a cordless drill? Where can I get those locally?

Yeh....looks like this is for polishing only. I need a better way to clean the wheels...especially the inside half you dont see.

Ive been through a few brushes so far but they are so small and fragile.

So what local store/chain carries a good selection of these kinds of products?

Advanced Auto Parts' selection is fairly low end. Same with Autozone.

Peb Boys any better? Murray's?

Taking tomorrow off and may spend the day getting her perty.

ahhh i see.

i'd probably stay away from those brushes... they look like they'd scratch up rims pretty easily.
