Installed JB+ yesterday. Getting rid of it...

FOR A JB3.

No seriously though, the 335 is just more alive with this thing and while it pulls fantastically (sp?), all day while I should have been enjoying the extra power, all I was thinking was "I wonder how the JB3 is going to feel." For the $160 shipped I paid for the Jb+, its probably the best bang for your buck mod known to man. It felt great when I initially installed it, but today after it adapted and the temps outside were around 70 degrees vs 90 yesterday, the car felt like a beast. I wont say my car is blazing fast, but now its pretty damn quick.

I'm going to noodle with this for another month or so, then pick up a jb3 out of classified. Terry, your work should not go un-noticed. Thanks for a great product.

I believe it. Money wasnt really the issue. I bought the 335 bc it was a quick car stock, and I wanted to get out of the mod game. The thought process was just buy it fast. Buuuut, i guess that plan backfired bc then I said ill just "mildly" tune it, and now im thinking JB3, smh

I'm loving my JB+ but would absolutely upgrade to the JB3 if my car were not under warranty. My biggest fear is that it breaks down one night in the middle of nowhere and needs to be towed to a nearby dealer. With the JB+, I can remove it in literally 45 seconds using only a penny. Not so with the JB3, as I would need assorted tools and a lot more time to remove it. Also, since the + does not throw codes, I don't need to have my laptop and BT cable with me everywhere I go. Not so with the JB3, as it can and sometimes does throw codes which need to be cleared before being brought to the dealer.

this, getting it out takes one second and if you have a code reader, delete them and you're good
