it's not like wow now I feel the power. I've never liked piggy's but they seem to work well on this platform.
Understood--I think you represent the vast majority.

It's a contentious topic and, given that I've not tried the RC, I'm ill-informed. That said, my map 1 experience on JB4 led to a 10.6 in the 1/4 on this same car. I don't know if the RC can deliver that.

The install for the JB4 is similar to the RC because they manipulate performance in a similar way. The JB4 also takes control of the wastegates (if you want it to; not required) giving it yet more control. The app used to control it is excellent and can log almost every conceivable statistic: it can view and clear codes; it can switch maps on-the-fly and, as we've already discussed, configure the behavior of those maps if you're willing to tinker.

Short story: I'd recommend giving it a shot if the money factor isn't a major concern.
