if you had two cars you would need 2 jb4 piggy backs, so no difference ...only that there may be resale value of the jb4

but i am sure we can also install back the original software when we sell off the car and ask the new owner for a nominal fee to have the ess map

roman ESS ... is the 35i map stage 2,similar to the 35is stock map ???are the boost the same ?

after tunning to stage 2 will the 35i be on par to the stock 35is ?

cant decide but leaning towards ESS as dont want the jerky feeling with jb4

TIA
Our 35is tune is the same as the 35i stage 2 tune. Both tunes will take the stock turbo's to what we feel are safe limits in an attempt to get max performance out of the N54. The overboost option on the 35is is replaced with always available power. Going beyond the boost levels we use will require a turbo upgrade if you want reliability.

We also recalibrate many other settings in the DME which allow the car to perform like a factory car. This includes throttle response, boost control and having DCT vehicles shift properly as the DME and TCU do communicate. Having the two control systems function properly together is key in getting OEM driveability.

If you ever have questions on our software you can always PM or email me direct.
