I'm more experienced with the E92 but have used AngeliBright and Weisslicht and have been talking with Marc lately about LUX-- this time I'm definitely using LUX as he uses some of the best-available emitters with a very reliable design.

Yea, I heard LUX are basically best bang for your buck kinda deal...How were the Weisslicht, they seem a bit dim to me. Though I have never seen them in person. Pictures can't really capture any AE IMO. |

It's great! Torque comes on early and it feels smooth. Reading the wide-band plot on my dyno graph really eased my mind also. Your car made awesome power on the dyno too. Isn't yours a 6-speed manual? Do you know if they ran the dyno pulls in 4th or 5th gear?
Did you have time to drive your car on the street with the Cobb tune before it was removed? |

Weisslicht works best on the E92 where lighting distribution between the light rings is uneven. The Weisslicht design places the LED emitters right up to each light pipe opening on the E92. Unfortunately it can't support the heat output and drives its LEDs at half the power of the LUX design. The Weisslicht is a bit dim and washes out in daylight.

I have a Steptronic 6-speed auto so they ran mine in 4th, which is 1.14:1, about as close as I can get. |

Kick ass Joe! I think I will wait a bit, get the JB4, then think about selling it and getting the Cobb also....but we'll see. My new Stett cold air intake and charge pipe are really nice though, and the BOV sounds awesome!!

Yeah, I had put up my v5 just to see what kind of price I'd get but with everyone selling and lowballing it's not worth it. And after riding it out a bit and reading some more into it, I think the verdict is still out for which tune will be the best. Cobb's definitely got the upper hand in being the most convenient, but power wise/feature wise I think the piggy backs are still ahead for now. Plus, Cobb is only Stage 1 at this point, and who knows when Stage 2 would be.
I'll probably end up getting a DP fix regardless since I will need it when I take the car in for warranty work and have my V5 out...
