Mods and Leasing

Nifty · 08-01-2009, 08:41 PM

I haven't posted much as I haven't actually gotten my car yet (ordered on July 17th) but I won't let that stop me from asking a few questions.

I see that alot of people have the JB3 and love it. My question is how many of you are driving a leased vehicle (with JB3), and have any of your run into any problems with dealerships/reliability/warranty etc...

take it out before any warranty work. try and get int with a tech at the dealer. most techs dont really care what you got done to the care as long as your up front about it and dont complain about stupid crap.

Looks like if I do go the JB3 route which is incredibly temping, I'd get a BT scanner first. Even then there is always that "what if" in the back of my mind.

its a lease, your not gonna keep the car. beat the crap out of it. i havent seen too many problems with the motors with exception of a few high pressure pumps. i know someone with a jb3 customer setup that has over 14 different levels and every mod you can think of. he daily drives it 120 miles with no problems for the past 2 years. horrible gas mileage though. only gets like 90 miles to a tank with 110

A JB3 with a BT scanner is a lease's best friend!
You can even go Dual Cone Intake if you are handy, can take it out within a few minutes.
