where is the 3.75-4.00 psi on the dial?

Proper Motion LLC · 03-04-2009, 04:17 PM

I think the middle is 2.5-2.75
Next marking is 3.0-3.25
Next marking is 3.5-3.75
Next marking is 4.0-4.25
Next Marking is 4.5-4.75
Last Marking is 5.0+

Just a guess tho..

i have JB3 so never paid attention to the JB+ threads until today - but i took a quick look:
....damn that (true) plug and play quick install device is putting down some serious power

lpphreakx06 · 03-04-2009, 04:32 PM

Bout to CRANK it all the way up..

E92murdered · 03-04-2009, 06:32 PM

I think a good improvement would have been to have a recessed user dial that is accessible without taking the JB+ apart. I realize it is simple to adjust but I think it misses the target audience and the simplicity they want from a tune.

E92murdered · 03-04-2009, 06:41 PM

hopefully the next one. i heard people opening it while the jb+ is connected. but im giong to take it off everytime.

I find it a bit strange that a tune that is supposed to be for ease of install and convenience needs to be uninstalled and taken apart to change a setting. Doesn't that somewhat defeat the purpose?

E92murdered · 03-04-2009, 07:04 PM

its very easy to install and taken out.. and the default setting is about +35 hp +40 at default setting. and easier then any other tune with that much power well including the sstt. so if you want to bump up the boost its very simple and easy to put back on

Its not at all complicated. I can pop off my JB+ and crank up the boost and reinstall in a matter of minutes.

Why would you want to keep changing the setting anyways? And I've heard you can change the setting without unplugging it. (well some people can anyway)

The boost gain is relative, but basically each position is around 1/3psi.

And when you guys say 3/4 setting, that would basically be equivalent to 3oclock on the knob right? Or would it be 2 or 4 oclock?

Get what I'm saying? LOL

Doesn't this thing install like the SSTT? In which case, there's the risk each time of breaking off the clip everyone bitches about, and you'd need to use some sort of guitar pick, etc. No?

E92murdered · 03-04-2009, 08:25 PM

very easy to install penny dime usb there are many methods. the best way is just insert whatever you use and dont pull up. very easy.!
