New Member. JB3?

Sgt. Slappy · 08-13-2010, 04:22 AM

Hey everyone. I've had an 07 335i for a year now.. and it took me that long to join the forum lol
i just installed an exhaust and intake... any suggestions for next step?
JB3??

sam2428 · 08-13-2010, 05:21 AM

You just suggested a intake, exhaust and a JB3 to someone elses post like 2 seconds ago.

why not suggest that yourself? lol (not trying to be an ass....just thought it was funny)

gizmo335i · 08-13-2010, 07:22 AM

Lol..that is funny...

Looks like you already now what to do. If you are doing performance mods first, then get the JB3 or proceed. Do some research on both since there's so many battles about which one to do...i.e. pros/cons.

What intake and exhaust did you go with?

Sgt. Slappy · 08-13-2010, 01:48 PM

LOL
yeah i know.
i have the aFe dual cone intake
and i just installed the vanguard catback exhaust

Brey335i · 08-13-2010, 02:17 PM

Thumbsup on your choice of exhaust

ridin135 · 08-13-2010, 02:25 PM

Defiantly get a tune next but try the proceed and jb3.

JhnR · 08-13-2010, 02:27 PM

find a used JB3 2.0 and slap it on.

best $ you can spend on the car. used is cheaper and works the same.

taz2ko0 · 08-13-2010, 02:49 PM

JB3 all the way. I have it and love it.

Sgt. Slappy · 08-13-2010, 02:51 PM

Is the JB3 really what everyone is making it out to be?
i'm feeling a nice horsepower increase with my exhaust and intake but want more lol

Jeff@TopGearSolutions · 08-13-2010, 03:01 PM

To people that dont understand how tunes REALLY work.... they just dont know.

Both tunes will add similar peak HP, but the procede and Jb3 will do it in different ways.

The power under the entire curve is a different story, but thats not the end all be all either.

One gets the job done and one gets it done in a way I prefer.

AT the end of the day, only advice I give people is to choose one that covers all aspects of tuning.

Proper control of boost and ignition, compiled with full datalogging capabilties, and driveability/user adjustability to fit my needs.

If you dont know, buy both and do your research, and talk to people that have tried both and pick their brain.

Anyone thats only tried one tune is in the dark, so take their advice with a grain of salt.

cstavaru · 08-13-2010, 03:11 PM

I think JB3 is a good tune for 99% of the people. Stable and simple. Instead of a very complicated piggyback I would just choose a flash. There is just too much margin for error.

techlogik · 08-13-2010, 03:13 PM

Judging by the classifieds, you should have no problem finding a JB used to try out.

If you think an intake and exhaust makes a big difference wait till you slap a tune on the car

Will definitely put a big grin on your face. If you are interested in grabbing the JB3 just shoot me an email or PM. Don't mind the usual tuner war crap as a lot of these threads get derailed very fast.

jaxxx · 08-13-2010, 05:37 PM

just get a jb3 , youll be very happy.

Trojan4evr · 08-13-2010, 05:39 PM

OP, what you choose is just a matter of personal inclination and driveability. test both.

Mike@N54Tuning.com · 08-13-2010, 05:53 PM

Thank-you for cleaning the thread up!

Mike

forza1976 · 08-13-2010, 10:42 PM

Op, consider Procede as well.

Slidewayz · 08-13-2010, 10:45 PM

Try both. Go with the one you like the best. Also do a little research on how the tunes work so you can be an informed consumer and keep your expensive engine safe.

k726 · 08-14-2010, 12:05 AM

Slide / Forza are you the same person? You always post after each other lol.

Anyways, both tunes kick ass. JB3 will be for your Dyno glory. If you have a MT go with PROcede (what I have read about extensively). If it comes down to cash and you have to make a choice based on that, get a used JB3! I have one for sale!
