I got the JB3 installed!! Big difference

I have upgraded from a JB2X to the new and improved JB3. The improvement is huge in every way! My off the line boost is quick and smooth, lots of power through the mid range and of course pulls very hard all the way to redline and for some reason the car shifts much firmer.
With the JB2X I was able to run a 12.8 in the quarter in AZ at 109mph. My buddy also has a JB2X and we have always been dead even but not now. We raced 6 times from different rolling starts:
20mph to 110mph I was 3.5 cars ahead
40mph to 110 I was 2.5 cars a head
My buddy couldn’t believe it because not only did I kill him I killed him with heavy 20” wheels, while he has wheels that are 12lbs lighter than stock. The JB3 drives very stock with and no hiccups what so ever, I’m very happy and look forward to going to the track again.
BTW the Plug N Play is a snap and can be installed and removed in a matter of minutes!
Thank you Terry for out doing yourself and making an affordable, more powerful mod for all of us.

can't wait for this to come out. Was up in the air about which tune to go with, almost sold on Dinan but am really leaning toward the JB3 now.

What settings did your friend have on the JBX when you ran him with the JB3? 50%? 100%? Race Gas?

I think Terry will make enough for those of you who want the JB3 that he's overstocked if anything...He already has learned alot from the Vishnu guys!

Will the jb3 eliminate the turbo lag caused by the open waste gates at idle, caused by post 29.x software?
