Any good/reputable real full tune should be better than the BMS PBX tuning parameters & should max out the power creation opportunities available for your engine.

There is no feature offered by the PBX that isn't already in a good full tune flash - including the throttle response. If you're not happy with the throttle response of the Gintani - then it is time for a new tune flash...

If you are looking for better throttle response - adding the PBX will give you their version of the throttle remap - but also their tuning parameters (which you don't want to add/mix with your full tune parameters). PBX throttle remap is too jerky anyway - I had one before I went with the Vishnu OFT tune. The OFT throttle remap is done the correct way, instead of simply 'fooling' the computer that you are at a wider open throttle setting than you actually are, & feels much better.

If you have a good full tune, there is no need for adding PBX & actually it is strongly recommended that you do NOT


The old addage 'if some is good, then more must be better' does not apply in this situation

I like it after my first gear . 2nd and third showed strong improvements but my first gear is still really leggy and slow off the line what could I do to add more pull and throttle response to my first gear because it's still horrible it didn't show any improvements after the gift and tune the other gears did
