to the top, this may have already been figured out. but, when i installed my b&m i thought the most annoying thing was after you set it to a stage you couldnt put it back to the stock setting without turning your car off. or atleast thats what everyone said, but today i figured out how you can.

lets say your on stage two and your tired of getting jerked around while driving casual or your tired of how much gayer your car sounds when it shifts when your not at WOT. just set the switch back to stock setting then mash it in and hold it for a couple of seconds, bam your back to stock.

like i said earlier this may have already been figured out along time ago but i havnt been on here in forever. just thought id post it just incase.

Get a full tune instead. When you can edit your pressures AND shift times its the best.

The plug is the same, colors is what change. The red should be orange on your car.

Dont waste your money if your technically inclined, build one yourself. i built mine for $7 and it works just as well plus i have a better switch which is built into the dash. Here are the parts i used:

AC 6A 250V 10A 125V 3 Terminals SPDT on Off on Round Rocker Switch 2 Pcs | eBay

Gold | eBay

Chassis in Toys & Hobbies | eBay

and a diagram (i didnt make this, credit to whalesac on jbody forum)

It is quite simple to install, on the 07+, it's a orange wire, not red. and it IS NOT the twisted together ones. i literally installed in 5 minutes flat. longest time it took, was deciding how i wanted to route the wire to "tuck it out of site" lol
