How many locals are running jb3 2.0?

I just installed it last night. Lets just say coming from the 1.4 its a nice upgrade.

20 degree weather + jb3 2.0 = madness

map 5 feels exactly like 1.4 map 7.. and map 7 you will have to feel for yourself

Loading new updates through the USB is a breeze, thats what I really like. You can even see what map your in.

I am not sure how many beta testers have weather under 20 degrees. Whenever it gets cold out my car feels like a beast it wont stay on the ground.

Its worth the wait!

I think Dinan is better than JB... Pulls harder and wayyy more torque.

+1. 2.0 looks really good so far!

I've been driving with the cowl off lately as updates are rolling in every few days, did you guys run USB to the glove box?

I'm just saying that if it were true, then there would be a lot of proof out there. I haven't seen any. You maybe right, if you're talking about JB+. But JB3 1.4 and higher would have more HP and Torque.

That's just my guessimate.

I'm going to do that this weekend. Just ordered the BT tool and the USB. Hopefully, it gets here quick.

According to the individual websites Dinan is Definetly producing more torque than JB (to the crank) horspower JB is ahead but barely... I think if we ran head to head I ould pull away much faster but it would stillb a good run...

What other mods do you have besides the Dinan flash?

If you want, we can go to Mexico and do some friendly runs. I would really like to see the comparison.



Not hating, just curious to see how the JB3 2.0 goes up against a Dinan flash.

I don't have many mods either. Just DCI, Borla catback exhaust and JB3 1.4 (soon to be 2.0).

Isn't Dinan like 3x as much $ too?

I'm planning to get the JB3 probably once 2.0 comes out of beta. I might try to make it up to NY also when Shiv visits and test the V4. Decisions, decisions..

In my opinion, the 2 best options out there right now are the JB3 & PROcede.

Flash tunes are great, but expensive. At least with piggybacks, you can remove them and take your car to the dealership.

+1 I'm down to do some runs too, although Canada might be closer than Mexico for us. I don't really have anymods though. Just JB3 2.0 and DCI.

There are more benifits to having Dinan, like warranty issues and so forth...

What other mods do you have besides the Dinan flash? I dnt have any other MODS except Dinan springs...

If you want, we can go to Mexico and do some friendly runs. I would really like to see the comparison. Mexico ...



Not hating, just curious to see how the JB3 2.0 goes up against a Dinan flash. I hear you, like I said I think it would be a good run tho...

I don't have many mods either. Just DCI, Borla catback exhaust and JB3 1.4 (soon to be 2.0). Shit you got more than I do, I still Dnt know what exaust and intake I want. I want more performance than sound and looks...
