JB+ and JB4

iverson3yoo · 05-18-2011, 09:21 PM

Can you use JB+ and JB4 (2,3, etc.) together? Is it better? More power?
Tried searching, if someone could give me some insight I'd be grateful. Thanks in advanced.

no.

Damn why not?

There is no benefit to stacking the JB+ on top of the JB4 because the JB4 already has the ability to move between different boost mappings.

In other words: It would be much cheaper and safer for you to simply switch to a more aggressive map on the JB4 than buying an additional JB+. You would also be at risk of exceeding the car's safe boost levels

Lol no!!
People stack the jb plus with a flash tune but the jb4 is a piggyback and it lets you choose how mjch boost you want to run so its useless and stupid to stack both...

I read the install instruction for the jb but was still a little confused. Is it really as easy as people are saying it is and what real gains are people seeing on a rather stock n54

It will completely transform the car. Install is pretty simple. I would budget around 45min time. Follow the instructions and take your time and it should go very smoothly

A lot of my customers run the JB4 on a stock car and are very impressed with the gains.

I didn't know you could adjust the boost with the JB4, I thought the maps were preset and they automatically configured to what your car has installed. Nonetheless, I was always gonna buy a JB4, but I recently came across all these JB+ for like >$100 so this question came to my mind. Thanks for all the input. Anyways JB4 FTW.
