Shove it to a 100% and go... It best felt after 50% of throttle input.

Here are the photos I took with my camera phone so far. Overall, I'm happy with the change. It wasn't a big change, but it looks great.

As I type this, I'm getting a clear bra installed. Tomorrow, I am going to dyno the 35D stock and with the JBD installed.

What do you mean (USB) and why? The connector is ODB and that is REQUIRED to connect to the car. How would you even make use of USB? Is there some type of separate serial interface for connecting a PC to the unit? If so, you CAN get a serial to USB converter, right?

By USB he probably meant the BT type of cable that connects through USB to computer.

Correct. I stated that above. I asked what it connected to the computer with if it WASN'T a USB. He hasn't yet responded, right?

All I meant by that was the older connection is just old and clunky. USB would have given me a better warm and fuzzy.

Yes. The older connection I was referring to was the serial portion. I wish it was obd to USB. That's all.

On another note, I did my dyno yesterday and I'm happy with the results. With the JBD at 100%, I made 230 HP and 345 torque at the wheels. I'll post up my graphs later when I get the chance. IMO, I don't feel a difference in the car because its the X5d already feels flippin fast, but the numbers show a 30hp/30tq gain at the wheels, which is nice. My current setting for the car is 80% now.

I also got my new exhaust installed too, which ill post photos of that later too. Unable to get the dyno for this since it got installed today. No difference in sound, but in terms of flow, it is way better than stock and much lighter too. No official weight numbers, but it's definitely lighter.

I'm sure it's possible, but with a good flash or tune, you'll be able to control everything from there, unless you want to change your fuel settings quick.

You can, if the flash does not modify the fuel rail pressure parameters. That what the piggyback/JBD does. I would stay away.

What dyno was used. The numbers after JBD@100% are extreamly low. Terry's numbers are around 310HP at the wheels. Btw how did you pickup the TQ reading signal?

The dyno they used was Superflow. All readings were taken from the in-ground rollers. After their at the flywheel conversion of 1.35, flywheel HP is 310 and torque was 465. Torque is on the lower end because when they rolled into full throttle, the tranny would want to shift from M4 to M3 by itself.

What dyno did Terry use?
