Main differences in JB2 and AA processor installs

I thought this might be helpful for people to see. Most have suggested that these piggy-back systems should be removed when the car goes in for any service. Well, I wanted to know how involved it was and wanted to be able to compare. I'm sure we could add more to this with other products but I'm starting with these :wink:

Active Autowerke
3 wires on connector A1 (pin #10, #29, and #31)
2 wires on connector B1 (pin #6 and #7)
ground wire
fuse tap
Solenoid bypass

JB2
2 wires on connector A1 (pin #10 and #32)
2 wires on connector B1 (pin #6 and #7)
Solenoid bypass (this is exactly like AA's kit, but they have another way to bypass the solenoids which is supposedly better)

I hope this info is helpful to some of you. Looks like the JB2 would be the easiest to remove and replace, but then is the performance as good...don't know.
