Stage 1 or JB4 ?

I am wondering which tune I should be getting obviously the JB4 seems more exciting with 120hp cranck, However it says competition only. Will that be compatible on the stock 35i f15 ?

Best option would be RaceChip Ultimate. It has better quality and smoother power delivery.

Based on what you stated, I will just do Stage 1.
JB4 is overkill and you will need some messing around to optimize it.

Yes I have tried both on the 35i. The RaceChip has smoother power delivery since it uses fast processor. The Stage 1 is more like a resistor circuitry put together by using an IC.

I stock the Ultimate. But if you want the Bluetooth, I can get it for you.
Just keep in mind that the Bluetooth is preset 3 settings, you can't fine tune it like the regular Ultimate.
It is pro and con I guess.

PM'ed

Someone usually tuned it because they are addicted to modding.
Others just looking for the extra power to bring up a smile in their face.
Max power doesn't always good.
