JB2 Review

BMW, 2007 335i, Sport package, JB2, 6 Speed Manual.
jb2 shipped super fast, followed the video directions, took me 1 hour to install, had some questions b4 it arrived, fast helpful response from Terry, car drives like normal, no codes, same gas millage, then you put your right foot down!!! wow, much stronger pulling power, smooth, love it!!
Previous 2 cars, 2006 Mutang gt vert auto, great sound, quick-ish, gas guzzler, now i only see them in my mirror, 2001 BMW 325i vert, slow, fun. Nice to be back in a BMW.

Nice, I'm in market for a JB aswell, so the JB2 is the one that does not plug into the ECU right?

Wow...I can't believe that they would not steer you to a JB3 which is so much more advanced than the Jb2 which is soooo outdated...Anyway enjoy

The JB2 is like a gateway drug. Gets you to like the power increase, then you start craving more. Within 2-3 months, this guy will be looking for a JB3.

yep, im sure i will upgrade to the jb3 soon, but the jb2 @ $99 is a bargain!! the jb2 does plug into the ECU, also Vacuum re-routing needs to be done, easy though, next mods for me are, lights: change front orange to clear, change back white lens to black, change brake pads to axxis to reduce brake dust, change front grill to black, replace RFT'S to non RFT'S, then eventually change the wheels. I dont like the clutch, and want a short shifter.

I have been running the JB2 for 2 1/2 years now and have not had much of a desire for more power as the car is pretty damn quick with it. I have also had no problems. Even left it in when I went to the dealership for the 15K and 30K service and they did not detect it, per Terry's recommendation, just changed the solenoids back to normal for the visit.

JBX

I've been using JB2X for over a year now and it's been great... 40-50 more HP. I just bought a JB3, so I'd like to sell it for $75. I also have a Jb1 with a hot pill for $40, good for 30 HP. PM me if interested.

the jb2 is an awesome tune never had any problems with it and it made the car feel the way it was supposed to be. However the JB3 is a whole other ball game.
