BMS Powerbox = fun times
I had the BMS Powerbox installed today courtesy of Mike@N54tuning (thanks Mike!) and I have to say I am very pleased with the results.
The initial throttle lag from a stand still is now gone. I am currently running to Map 3 (100% throttle sensitivity) and driving the car from a stop is more like "Tap and GO!" as opposed to "Depress gas pedal, wait 1.5 seconds...now go" You will also notice the difference immediately when accelerating out of a bend or passing, especially in the lower gears. D mode is actually usable now. The throttle is no longer stiff and heavy and I find it adequate for DD. DS mode is even more aggressive (feels like a "DS2") and "Manual Mode" + the PBX is just right imo. Although I have regretted many times that I should have gotten a manual, driving the auto is all right now. In conclusion, I find the PBX to be an excellent mod for ~$300 and well worth the money. |

may i ask, on map 3 in traffic do you find it too "jerky" as in the throttle is now too sensitive? ( i am aware that you can lower the sensitivity) what does the "butt dyno" tell you ??? Thanks

Hm, not really tbh. Except it's more eager to rev during the first-third gears.

You'll need some sort of forced induction to achieve that BMS Pbx won't be helping much in the whp department.
