JB4 works best for those who need the features for back end flashes. If you've been here since the inception of BMS and their tuners you'd understand more about how things work with their offerings. I can't say anything bad about them as they've been in the platform for a while and had some good innovations and offerings where nobody else did. If you just want a tune, stick with a flash option.

Hopefully MHD comes to fruition soon for you. |

Now, I'm not going to tell u that one is better then the other. I will just tell u that out of the tunes I have tried/run, I would run notning else but jb4. But hey opionions are like buttholes, everyone's got one right? N54tech.com the website u stated had no information, or I forgot exactly what u said, is actually very informative. Terry has everything on there. Don't know what threads you were looking at exactly. But if u go back and check the texhnical threads that terry starts. U will learn more in 30 minutes about the ecu's in these cars then days searching Google. In conclusion, there has been the debate tune vs piggyback since the beginning of time it seems. Both have perks, both have cons. If I could advise anytbing, it would be to drive a car with JB then a car with Cobb, see which one u like better. If your worrried about reliability, your playing witb Fire with any of them. Anything that increases the performance while adding boost psi has the potential to damage something. But, I've aeen cars with 100k+ miles on many of the tunes with little to no problems. Your favorite may be Differnt then my favorite. Happy hunting. Ps - long live the twins!! |

My post wasn't about favorites. My post was intended to point out that the JB4 isn't all that everyone makes it out to be. The average user, like yourself, just throws it into a map and never thinks twice about how well their car is actually performing. If that is what you want, then go ahead and buy the JB4. Quote:

I don't have a biased opinion. I am using the JB4 as we speak and its been a hell of a road to try to figure out all the things BMS neglects to tell you. Such as, Map5 wont auto tune correctly if you have a flash like the ppk, the JB4 only works with certain DME roms (had to update my DME with winkfp), and the fact that even on Ma p1 you're going to have to add E85 to prevent knock because of the lack of the JB4's ability to adjust timing. These are all things the average user will probably never bother looking into. I really to be given some work to do at work so I can stop wasting my time posting on things like this lol Last edited by bNks334; 07-28-2016 at 02:25 PM.. |

Thank you for all the input, everyone. I did end up buying a second hand JB4 but the seller scammed me and never sent it.
I have since decided to go with MHD but I'm waiting until I get an upgraded charge pipe before I do so. |
