Can a JB+ be controlled through a P3 digital gauge?

e92bimmerfest · 06-23-2011, 05:34 AM

Looking to pick up a JB+, and just curious if it can be controlled the the Rixster P3 Gauge.

I am looking to stack a Cobb Stage II when it comes out, and just want the JB+ for some extra, extra fun when needed/wanted.

Thoughts? Ideas?

Let me know..

No. You can only set the JB+ to add + x psi.

The answer is simply NO. You can't change the JB+ settings through the P3 Gauge. The only option to change the setting on the JB+ is to open it and physically adjust the dial.

you could find the resistance values that it the POT uses and find a dial that has the same resistance, Unsolder the POT resister then tac on leads to the dial that you could mount in the inside of your car.

If you want to have adjustablitly and don't mind using hardware, perhaps you should consider a piggy back instead of Cobb. They have been dominant on this platform and have had many hundreds of users with 10s of thousands of miles showing their performance and reliability.

Just my 2 cents

I think it would be cheaper to just buy a JB4

LOL

My original P3 cars gauge would control my JB3+ but now I'm not so sure with the V2 gauge. I can't figure it out...
