    It can replace the BTC, but not the VAFC.

    I agree VAFCs look very cool!

    I thought with the J&S ultra it is possible to make changes to the a/f ratio too?!

    Listen up guys, I just got off the phone with John at J&S, and he advised me (I have a 98 GSR that is SC'd) to get the V2. The only thing you lose from the V1 is the ability to set it to NA or FI. He told me when he first released it he advised SC folks to get the V1, but he as changed his tune, since it works well with being able to replumb the MAP sensor for best use. I don't know if the current V2's are reprogrammable, but John is also getting them to where they will also work with 6 and 8 cyl setups, which although it is sometimes advertised the V2s out now apparently don't recognize yet.

    OTOH, I just ordered one yesterday, I heard no one was doing J&S groupbuys anymore so I didn't check : (

    If import parts gets a bunch at a time, their costs go down, and they pass the savings on to us.

    Yeah, importparts.com is where I got mine too. Seem to be a decent place to buy stuff, wish I had bought more stuff there.

    austrian,

    I have tried to adjust my a/f ratio by using the map limiter adjustment on the J&S. It didnt seem to work very well. My car stayed very rich and started detonating alot. I dont know if adjusting the MAP signal also changes the timing.

    I think what is happening is that I am using the JR FPR, and it just dumps too much fuel to use the J&S to fine tune fuel delivery.

    Can anybody explain what the dual monitor is? I know I want the J&S Ultra V2, but Ben asked about the dual monitor? What is that?

    They show your A/F ratio and knock retard the J&S is performing... pretty handy


    Anyone know of any place you can get them for $150? I remember seeing them for this much a while ago on a group buy, but I'm not sure if you can still get them at that price.

    Thanks,
    Jeff
