Dinan or JB+

momo style · 04-11-2009, 09:44 PM

I got a lease due in 24 months.

Im debating between dinan or jb+.

Im just scared that JB+ would be detected by bmw, = voiding my warranty.

Could they be able to proof that I had a tune when returning my car? Even If i have BT scan .

Thats why Dinan could give me a piece of mind while leasing and maybe buying the car after the lease

Any advice?

Good luck returning the leased car with a Dinan flash on it! JB+ is a much better idea.

I would go JB and a BT scanner. You can use the BT tool for 2 more bimmers too.

Ohh and add a poll. Make your life a hell of a lot easier.

If you use the JB+ on low boost, there is almost no chance of you damaging your engine or having warranty hassles. Remember something has to go wrong in order for you to even get into a possible warranty battle with the dealership.

JB + and BT for sure.

Do you guys think a JB+ or JB3 has less chance of getting detected?

SlickShift · 04-12-2009, 04:32 PM

I'd say the JB+. The JB3 uses much different (i.e. more aggressive) maps.

Do I need a BT Tool for my JB2?? I got a CEL once when I started my car but that only occurred 1 time. The car started shaking almost violently, I shut down the engine, restarted, and no problems since.

Was that when you first started it after installing the JB? I hear that can happen.

No, I had the JB2 in for at least 3 months before this occurred, maybe just a random misfired start-up? Car runs perfect otherwise.

if your considering a Dinan I would totally put the Procede V3 rev. II. in the list. less than the Dinan Flash and more features than Anything. and no need for a BT tool it clears codes itself.
