Is WOT box bad for the car? What are my 2 step options

TheMidnightNarwhal · 07-31-2019, 08:42 PM

Can you use 2 step WOT box on a stock turbo car? I'm MHD Stage2+.

I'd like to use to rev the car and make noise rarely at a car meet and when I do races would be nice to be able to 2 step launch.

It's my understanding abusing 2 step will eventually RIP turbos but I never heard of WOT box and don't know if compatible or good buy on N54 with MHD?

Also I've already flat foot shift but it's my understanding WOT box would make that even smoother?

Bump

Is JB4 only option out there?

A lot of people have ran the wotbox for a long time and loved it. I personally am running jb4's 2 step, anti lag, and no lift shift, and the nls does a really good job keeping the turbos spooled when i'm going through the gears.

Gotta watch your egt's when using anti-lag or 2 step on pump gas though. Don't wanna burn out some valve stem seals

2 step will Drastically reduce the life of your turbos... depending what rpm its used at and so fourth....you can use it alot if you like but plan on rebuilding those turbos frequently from the extreme pressure on the turbine shafts.

Both do the same job. The JB4 is a nice option because it's all integrated so it's smart enough to cut meth when 2STEPPING or doing NLS to avoid blowing up your intake manifold. You can also adjust the setting in dash at the track without pulling out a laptop like you need with WOTBOX.
