You running an intake as well? Downpipes? Meth kit?

Edit: NM, you said stage 2+. Good shyt. May I ask how that affected your gas mileage? Also which tune did you go with, and how is the driveability? Any weird / unpredictable spots in the throttle response or anything like that?

Since E85 requires more volume than normal gas my gas mileage has dipped from 22 mpg to 18 mpg. I have been modded so long I don't even remember what the stock car feels like..lol Cobb has currently worked out all of initial issues they were having throttle wise and is now buttery smooth. I believe you have the N55 engine, correct? If so you would be limited to Vishnu or JB4 tune wise.

I just got my 335 I was going to roll with JB4. I've got a N54, are you saying I should go with Cobb instead?

Also any suggestions on a blow off valve set up? I don't want it to be ridiculously loud or obnoxious, just tasteful.

I personally prefer Cobb to JB4 because it's a flash tune vs a piggy back tune. Flash tunes have more control of the DME so it allows you to run more E85 for example than you could with a JB4 alone since the JB4 cannot edit the fuel tables. I wouldn't bother with a blowoff valve as the stock diverters are just fine in my experience and spending $400 plus for a charge pipe and blowoff valve is a waste of money.

Coo. I'll look into Cobb and make my decision based off what I find. Sounds like you're running a pretty good amount of power out of the stock turbos

Any issues so far?

I've got the N55 and was thinking of upgrading the chargepipe so I can safely run a meth kit during the hot AZ summers. You think it's unnecessary?

Both of them cars are ugly as hell. Just give me an SRT-8 Challenger with a supercharger
