Jb4 vs racechip 2.0T

[Silveyman]

Heard goods and bads from both. So to the people that are currently using them what are the "actual" gains? Why choose one over the other??

I went with the Racechip RS due to service visits, etc. I just change out chip for pass through block and car is back to stock. I'm looking at giving the JB4 a try for more power although I've heard they are pretty close in power gains with the JB4 being more programmable. With the Racechip RS, custom exhaust and Injen Intake (also have XLR Throttle Responder) .....i gained 35 whp and 57 wtq on 93 octane in 97 degree temp and high humidity. Strange is that on one pull, I removed the Racechip and only lost 10 whp/10 wtq. So if stock is 199 & 199.....racechip is showing 10 hp and 10 wtq incease. Again, the temperature was 97 degrees. See attached Dyno.

Your curves are are not smooth in your graph, I would look into that as it tells me there is a problem with your tune.

I never noticed it until you mentioned it. I will need to look into it. A couple shops in area do Dyno tunes, but most are with American Muscle cars. Actually thinking about giving JB4 or LAP 3 a try. Thanks.

Go with JB4. Has fuel support.

 

[Sunseeker]

That's what I was leaning towards. Thanks.

Both are great products. I would recommend going with the JB4 and HKS plugs with the Bluetooth option for your 2.0T. You will definitely love the new tune and the new power!
