New JB3 options!!

BMS has extended the options availible with the jb3, so that you can create your own "bundle"... and I wanted to list them, and their technical explinations, to try and help everyone understand each option.

Bundling is smart, because you can save on shipping

You can see the new options here:
http://www.rixeffects.com/store/juicebox3

In depth info about the jb3 is here:
http://www.rixeffects.com/store/jb3

Notice that some items are for a limited time only! (like the $99 intake option).

1. ECU compatibility: (v81/29.2+ or pre-29.2 ONLY)

I get the most questions about this one... its pretty simple actually. All it does is help us decide which method of fueling is best for your vehicle... but you can always choose the v81/29.2+ version to be safe, as it works on both. Just make sure that if you order the pre-29.2 version, that you are SURE your have a software version before 29.2, which was released march of 2008. Check your driver side door for build date, and make sure you have not had any software updates after then.

2. Harness: (Pinout version, or PNP)

Well, for a while now the PNP has been sold out, so your only option is pinout right now, but the difference is pretty simple. The Pin Out is similar to Stage 1 and Stage 2... it still uses OEM pins, and is completely removable with no traces, although its suggested for experienced enthusiasts only, because playing with wires can be a bit tedious... No cutting required for the pin out and you can be updated to the Plug and Play harness at a later time by purchasing the PnP upgrade. The PNP version simply lets you replace the ENTIRE subconnectors in the ECU, rather than each individual wire. Both accomplish the same goal.

3. Map Switch
Right now you have the option to add the basic 3 position map switch, which plugs directly into the jb3, and sits in the engine bay, just outside the ecu, for only 22 dollars, and it will ship in the same box as your jb3. More info on the switch is here: http://www.rixeffects.com/store/node/32

4. Intake COMBO!!! (single or dual)
For a limited time ONLY, BMS is allowing you to add a BMS intake of your choice onto your jb3 order, for only $99 !!!!

and... BMS IS EXTENDING THIS TO EXISTING JB3 OWNERS!!!
More info here: http://www.rixeffects.com/store/node/22

So, I hope that clears things up... jb3 combo FTW!!!

They have an extended wire that will reach the cabin coming if not in stock already. A wireless switch is also in the future I believe.

BMS had an issue with one of their suppliers for the OEM pins, had to push back the date.

Here is how the maps switch from the rixeffects vent gauge: (135i version will be out soon)

Hold the peak recall button 2 seconds to enter the "boost control" mode.
tap the button to cylce maps, wait 3 seconds and the map will be selected and the menu will exit. Its that easy

bc.1 = low boost
bc.2 = high boost
bc.3 = stock
bc.4 = race gas(under development still by BMS)

Here is a video:
