JB3 1.22 or Procede V3 Rev1

I am wanting to pick up a used tune. I see that there are a few JB3 1.22 and Procede V3 Rev 1 for sale. Which of two would be a better tune to go with in regards to power and diagnostic invisibility? Everything thing else will be stock on my 6MT. Thanks in advance

Go with the JB3 PNP - It is easy (and cheap) to update the chip to 1.3. Since your stock, the maps you will likely run will be invisible.

Those systems are very comparable in price used, really can't go wrong either way.

With the JB3, you can update it to 1.3 or the latest 1.4 beta for free by sending the chip in to BMS to be flashed, or having someone with a burner flash it for you. So you'll have a fully supported production system. 1.2 is pretty invisible but 1.3 is much better, so update it if you go the JB3 route.

Save yourself lots of headache a go with JB3. You can update to the latest maps for free if you have someone with a chip burner in your area. However the update to RevII would cost you a pretty penny and possibly something else...

If you would have read the OP, you would have seen the thread is between the JB3 and the V3 revI.. This has nothing to do with what NRG has or has not ordered last week..

Actually, I thought it was interesting given NRG's post history. Relax a little RambleJ.

Legitimate question about used tunes - Rev I, while still functional cannot be updated with the latest Rev II features. If you want a Procede, I would highly suggest the Rev II to save the expense of the BT tool.


You can't go wrong with the JB3 and then update to the latest and greatest chip at a very minimal cost.

Thanks for your comment (and everyone else who provided positive feedback). To whomever (and the sheep who followed) suggested this thread showed be closed, I was not trying to instigate another "tune war". I have seen these two tunes for sale (The asking price for used Rev2's seems to be much higher than these two) and I wanted some opinions from those who are more knowledgable and experienced than I. I have my answer now....Thanks again for those responded.
