i'll have to read up more on this JB4+flash combo as you sound very enthusiastic about it. going with MHD first was a no brainer given the cost, JB4 significantly raises the total investment so curious to know what else it brings to the table

i wouldn't go as far as to say one is better than the other, cost-wise they seem similar as BT cables cost more initially while the flashes are free vs. MHD which uses a cheaper cable but needs more add-on purchases to get equivalent capabilities

perhaps once someone can get a true dyno comparison done ppl can start debating if one map is better than another

one confounding factor is that everyones car seems to be setup so differently. and in particular, the members to jump on these new offerings seem to already be running JB4, E85, or upgraded turbos, which makes it harder to evaluate all the options for someone stock

all names of software products, no wiring installs like JB4. i no longer have warranty so i was less worried about detectability but i believe the option to flash back to stock ECU exists for both options
