JB+ settings

Well, my warranty is about 100 miles from expiring so its time to install the JB+ thats been sitting in my desk for months.

Which setting is right for me. I can only get 91 octane gas here in San Diego, and dont have any other mods except for Bastuck exhaust which I dont think helps with a tune at all.

I always thought 75% was correct, but recent reading has me thinking that 50% is where I should stay. I NEED reliability.

I wont do any bypassing either, makes me too nervous.

With 91 octane and a mostly stock car I would recommend 50% setting (default) Just install and enjoy

Thanks man, but the bypass is the main reason I go rid of the JB2, it just made me too worried. I know its crazy, but when you dont understand stuff, its better to stay normal

Definitely stick with 50% to err on the side of caution. Don't raise it any higher. You should be fine.
