You dont need a JB4, you just need a CAN Tool.

TreDirtyFive · 02-26-2012, 07:49 PM

Don't forget the uber exhuast stink you will get for the life of the DP. It will never go away... And intermittent rough idle as well. A tune is your best bet..used ones are cheap!

Beemw335 · 02-26-2012, 07:50 PM

Sara, just get the can tool, youll enjoy the sound of the dp.

My car is going to stink now?

eyim1988 · 02-26-2012, 07:56 PM

Sadly yes.. Very much so haha. No cats = awful smell you might get used to or not at idle. Just don't open your windows ever when idling. problem solved

Its not noticeable, only on a cold start if youre standing behind the car. Dont worry about it.
Just get the can tool and youll be happy with everything!

Ok I think this is the route Im going to go

mrj25 · 02-26-2012, 08:20 PM

your car will smell like performance. its noticable but you will get used to it. just keep your windows up. i actually like it

the CANTOOL should be fine for auto deleting codes. you can get it used for cheap on the classified section

Sara · 02-26-2012, 10:12 PM

I THINK I've narrowed it down to JB4 N55 Stage2 and BMS Downpipe. Im going to sleep on it and report back. My brain hurts from all this learning. The Louisiana Chat Thread wore me out with going back and forth and back and forth on this.

Never thought anything on earth could be harder than shoe shopping.

Sara · 02-26-2012, 10:15 PM

And big thanks to Jeff@topgearsolutions for the 30 minute long phone call lecture on what works and what doesnt for what Im trying to achieve.

TreDirtyFive · 02-27-2012, 03:45 AM

Even after a 35 minute drive to work and park...as sooon as I get out, the smell is quite apparent and it has broken in for over a thousand miles. Don't even mention a slow cruise with the windows down as the smell seeps right into your glorious cabin. It's not for the feint of heart. But the sound, power, and throttle response is much improved.

Well good thing I just had Rhinoplasty and I cant smell anymore

Ok so if the smells appears in the cabin, when I take the dp off. Will the smell go away or is it permanently there?

tacosurf · 02-27-2012, 07:23 AM

If sound is what you want, you can always buy a catted DP

What would be the advantage of catted vs non and vice versa?

**I know I know I ask too many questions**

Sam335ix · 02-27-2012, 08:00 AM

You won't get the same performance with a catted but much less smell.

THOSE WITH BMS DP..How bad is the smell. Scale 1-10 1 being not noticable-10 being worse than a dog fart.

My buddy has it on his car, It smells and I would rate it a good 6 or 7. At times I smell it on his clothes as well when he comes over... Granted it sounds like sex but it smells like @#$# lol.
