Fyi you made this post a voting poll, however it's ok because you're new, I used to be a scrub too (still am to be honest).

I personally have a jb4 on my car and it's at best "alright"
I would check out MHD, Its an app that you can download on to your ANDROID phone/tablet and tune your car yourself, Its cheaper than a jb4 and it performs identically to the jb4. Or better yet, A JB4 with an mhd backend flash. However that's probably to confusing for you atm. Best thing I would recommend is to browse around a bit on the forums, and google MHD vs jb4 and what not as theirs plenty of threads to look at. Best of luck!

Stay away from Dinan tunes . I have one on mine (for now) and its very conservative. For the priceower gains ration compared to other tunes, its not worth the extra money. I will be going a completely different route for a tune anyways but for simplicity, go JB4 but get a new one, not a used JB4 (imo)

Also, since youre a California guy, id recommend getting a FMIC and a BMS oil cooler valve too to help keep temps down in the warm weather.

Downpipes will net a lot of power gains but smogging will be an issue unless you know somebody.

Goodluck and have fun!

this oil cooler valve just bypasses oil cooler thermostat prolonging oil warm up time thus wearing out engine faster
