Actually this may have SOMETHING to do with it. During the RSFB install, I had an oil change also, and the tech told me he wasn't able to reset the oil timer like normal due to the controls to get into that being the same as the controls to get into the JB4. When I got the car back, the JB4 was in map 4 setting instead of 5. (This was remedied on the day I picked it up, so it has nothing to do with the 0-60 testing I spoke of) I've been driving with the JB4 since last October about, but maybe the JB4 needs to "relearn" everything all over again from the map switching or whatever he did when he was in there. TBH I haven't really looked at the boost meter to make sure that it's hitting 16psi on pulls, but just by the butt dyno, the car at least feels like it's as fast as it's ever been. Is there a way to master reset the JB4 programming so that I can just be absolutely sure that he didn't accidentally mess anything up when he was messing around?
