Gotta say, the car felt faster and faster the more i drove and let it adapt can't wait for it to fully adapt :P $340 more dollars spent on my car.... plus $230 tints, $45 jack stand/jack set... and other stuff I prly spent money on just this month.... over budget kind of... no more mods until mid october at least  o well, I'll be enjoying the Jb3 ! Haha just thought I'd share

I have the JB+ at 80% and I am now running Map 3
To be honest, for the first 10 or so miles... not only did I NOT feel an increase in power, i felt a DECREASE in power.. but as I drove home from Simi and drove more and more miles, I could notice the power increase gradually. Can't wait for it to adapt ))) And IFFFF i get Dps, I'll start running Map5 it's too hot here to run map 5 (imo)

I had a JB+ for a bit at 75% and when i put in JB 1.3 Map 3 the car immediately felt so much more powerful...It was night and day. Smoothness, Delivery and Tons of power up top. The JB+ does not compare. I guess it really depends on the car?

ALL my customers who upgraded from the JB+ to the JB3 (probably 50 or more) have been SUPER happy and instantly noticed the power increase even on map3.
The BMS/N54Tuning upgrade policy on the JB+ is an awesome way to test drive the JB+ and decide if you want more power, and if you do then its a simple cost effective upgrade. Either the JB+ or the JB3 really transform the car so can't go wrong with either. Happy to hear you are enjoying the JB3. Mike |

This is what I keep telling people who think they will be fine with the JB+ for long term. They will be happier in the long run with the JB3 because it is a more complete tune.
When 2.0 comes out it will be even better for the JB3 users. I tried to do some beta testing this weekend with 2.0 but it was raining too much to do anything. Maybe this weekend. Quote:
