Just wanted to see who's had any luck with running a JB4 stage 1 with a stock Chargepipe.

I've seen people have issues under stock boost.

I'm really torn between a jb+ and a jb4 stage 1. A used jb4 stage 1 is less than $50 more than a new jb+ (haven't seen any used ones), and I'm wondering if it makes more sense. But I don't want to mod extensively. And I don't really want grief over a chargepipe if I take it in for service.

It seems as if there isn't much difference between the JB4 Stage 1 and the JB+. The stage 1 can't control fuel, and it doesn't allow you to clear codes, so why spend the extra money?
