So the Mod bug has finally bit me, just ordered my JB4 Stage 3 and my DCI, itching like a crackhead for it to come, was wondering if anyone has any pointers for installation and usage, you know some words of wisdom, I know a lot of members here are veteran JB4 tuners and also what should I put next on my list for Mods, trying to keep it under 300 dollars atm since pretty much maxxed my visa which I spent 2 months paying off XP

Hahaha. I feel you man. I told myself that the ppk would be good enough. Just installed a dci yesterday and now I'm "itching like a crackhead" to get more boost! That turbo spool is addicting as hell. Ordering a JB4 but it seems like the CP goes out with more boost so I'm upgrading that with the jb4. Vendors seem to have some nice deal with FMIC and cp combo.

+2 still no mods but I'm also "itching like a crackhead" to finally get some mods under the hood. Should be ordering a JB4 + DCI today and will have them installed by the end of next week hopefully. Seller seems like a very trustworthy, nice guy so I can't wait to get them ordered and on their way!
I'm trying to limit the addiction so I'll be spacing the rest of the mods out over the next 12-18 months. At least that's what I'm telling myself - it will probably be fully modded in the next 6 months minus a turbo upgrade

After the Jb4 + DCI I'll be going DP's, FMIC, CP + BOV, Meth, ~40/60 E85, and possibly NOS further down the road.

Dude.... my DP and FMIC are being shipped as we speak!!! CP had to be replaced already. Being itching to try Cobb Stg 1 but im a wait til I am on fresh plugs. Those just arrived too! I have lots to do in the next few weeks.

Buy spark plugs and VRSF downpipes, then set to map 5 and enjoy. I made 426 whp and 463 wtq with just JB4, DCI and BMS catless downpipes with about 33% E85 on map 5.

Cant wait too install these, is the DCI's easy to install based on all your experiences? And so I should get fresh plugs? Im 80k miles and I had the plugs done around 60k miles

[e92_enthusiast_1]

DCI's are easy to install. Mainly just need to remove the factory airbox. The only thing is the back air inlet is kinda under the wiring harness that runs along the engine and its a tight squeeze. If your hands arent small enough might have to take that top stuff off (cowl and stuff), kinda annoying. Either way though its not a hard DIY. Just be patient. It's a process and first time will be slow.

20k mile plugs untuned might still be aight for a few thousand miles on stg 1. You can give it a shot, stg 2 not sure if they'd be up to par for that but even on stg 2 they should last 20-30k. Just try it. No harm, if it doesnt work out you'll just have to dial it down til you can get some new ones.

Any specific plugs I should be leaning towards to support the extra stress from the JB4? Also what do you mean by stage 1 and 2? The JB4 I got says Stage 3 whats that mean

I know that people around here like the NGK iridium, specifically the newer part number.
