JB3 2.0 maps

E90PAT · 11-12-2010, 11:04 AM

When i have my jb3 at map two, my car feels disgustingly faster than it would if i had it in map 5 (hot). I look at my gauge and in map 2 i reach 13psi. But when im in map 5 it only hits 11-12 psi.. what gives?

I know, stupid question but I have to ask. Are you sure you are switching maps correctly?

Becuase when you run map5 in the hot florida heat the turbos make tons of heat witch in turn the DME pulls timing witch lowers boost to prevent knock.

The best thing that i should have done when i lived in FL was to install a meth kit. You could run more boost safer.

Iam pretty sure when i ran map7 for over a year in FL with no cooling mods is the reason my injectors went bad.

Keep on a safe map 2-3 until you get a meth kit or an intercooler.

I could never get around why my car puled more on map three then on the hotter maps.
