My key was going to get stuck in the slot sooner or later. The JB does not throw any hidden/pending codes unless you turn it past 3psi. I'm at 2.5 right now.

This tool will allow you to clear hidden codes:

I'm going to get it at some point.

yah, the bmw 335i has twin turbos, but i think they are wired in parallel for reliability? (i'm not sure on that one.)

the FD had sequential turbos and that's why they were so explosive. my friend's FD dyno'd at 480+ during its prime...

that's correct.

The 335d has twin sequential turbos though. (it's diesel)
