I may consider adding this on top of my MPPK tune and I like the fact that i can adjust how much gains i want just incase i need to crank it down due to the already increased boost from the MPPK.

Now the bigger question for you guys. I've had several JB products in the past and while they do work for increasing power, they always seem to make the car feel like a on/off switch with power delivery. Is there a happy setting where power is increased but not to the point where it affects power delivery?

Correct for Petrol engines S1 dial doesn't have any use.

Scale of S2 dial from lowest is 8, highest is 7. So it goes like this 8,9, A, B, C, D, E, F, 0, 1, 2, 4, 5, 6, 7 .. The default setting shipped is B for N55/N63.

Use default/shipped setting for a tank (recommended to fully adapt since sometimes depending on engine tolerance, fuel used, location, altitude etc varies on fully adaption)

Power is felt at stock setting for me, for others as well.. Some are happy at stock, 1 increase, some at 2, and thats usually where most are happy with stock, 1-3 above. pdawg has tested pretty extreme settings of 4 and 5 on his 35i before seeing CEL.. I have tested 4 as well with no issues.

After various talks with M235 folks in USA/Europe and receiving info from Racechip Engineers they recommend and use F (as max safest setting) paired up with their FMIC/DP/CP mod hitting 400whp.

Also from various members 535/550, M235 that have tested/used other stage1 tunes and even stage2 (335), they reported Racechip being smoother and more consistent. Also, power is felt more in the low-end/midrange where as other tunes you only see it at higher rpm.
