It is on a 330i. I’m running it on a roughly E30 mix and I love it. Car is so much more responsive. No regrets at all. I have a thread about it in this forum.

I took mine off because I planned on selling it and I'm not so sure I noticed it being louder with it off. Maybe it's all in my head at this point haha. Selling the JB+ to try out another route, but I did love the extra power it provided for two minutes of work.

reading your reviews I decided to go ahead and order the JB+. sounds like the pefect fit for what I'm looking for: moderate and noticeable power bump (around F30 335 power) and easy install/uninstall. Hopefully won't have any issues

question though, considering the Canadian weather and the fact I only have access to 91 octane fuel, should I go forward with the JB+ install or not recommended in your opinions

So I was looking at the PTF ots tunes and all I see are B48 tunes. Are those the tunes people use on their 330i's with the B46 as well? my obd to ethernet cable is being delivered today so I will be able send my DME info to Bootmod3 to see if I can be flashed without having a bench unlock done.

Well I tried to flash my 2020 330i today. Sent my DEM software info to PTF and they confirmed that I should be able to flash my vehicle. When I got my activation key I couldn't even enter it as the ECU kept kicking out my connection every 4 seconds and then would reconnect and it would just keep doing the same thing. All cables were brand new and I was monitoring my ethernet connection via my MacBook and the connection light on the usb-c to ethernet adapter and connection was always active. I also tried with Windows PC and plugged the ethernet directly in the PC and still had the same issue. So I asked for a refund and I'll have to go the piggy back route. My car is about 2 weeks old, so I'm guessing it's a software compatibility issue somewhere. I am located in Canada

just installed the jb+ this morning. opened it before install and the dial was at 75% from the max dialed it back 50% (3 O'clock).
managed not to break the grey tab by disconnecting it from the inside with a very thin fork prong(#improv). Went for a drive it's not and never will be M340 like but there is a difference. the car seems to pull harder with mild-mod improvement in smoothness Next car hopefully will be straight-6 engine |

Hey crew
Small hickup in my JB+ experience I need a take on. I have been running it on 100% for the last 3-4 months since first purchased, 0 issues to date. Took the car in for a service (removed module before hand), received car back, re-installed the JB+, took it for a quick spin and noticed the check engine light was on (solid amber). Opened the bonnet to see if something had come loose and to my surprise the yellow wire on the JB+ had come loose. I imagine this has caused the CEL to come on. I've removed the JB+, CEL still remains. I'm guessing the computer freaked out when no TMAP sensor data was being received and now has an error logged. Car runs fine (no reduced power etc) and normal. I'm going to have to go back to the dealership and get them to reset the code I guess. Question: Is the car safe to drive in the interim? My thoughts were yes, but thought I'd check with some more experienced users first. Thank you |

Dealership should be the last option when it comes to a tuned car. Piggyback or not.

Has anyone run this compared to the Dinantronics Sport? They seem very similar and I'm wondering if there are any major differences. The Dinan has two separate things to plug in while the JB+ only has the single point of contact... that must do something different, no?

You mean JB+ vs JB4? Or JB+ vs Dinan? I have not had any experience with any Dinan products but I know for a fact that both JB+ and JB4 work well
