Anyone with any feed back on tbe Boost Max?
I was told an honest 75 to 80 HP gain on my E-Sport.
Plug n' play, takes about 20 mins to install and No tuning required, I can get at a really good price.

All it does is lower what the computer sees for TIP and MAP readings, causing the computer to command more boost. It does not adjust timing, fuel, or any other engine parameter to do this safely. All this does it lie to the computer.

I'm sure there are some people running them with no issue, but I would never put one on any of my vehicles.

What does "an honest 75 to 80 HP gain" mean?

Dont waste your money on a chip, get a tune

Just a break down, JMS iz Johnson Motor Sports, started by Chris Johnson, who like most started by "burning" chips in the 1980's for the 5.0 Mustang crowd. JMS also builds and races sum if the fastest  FORDS around. Chris Johnson along with 2 others started SCT, ever heard of them?
Please Don't question me, I've been doing this Alot longer than Most of you have been alive.
I come here to ask if anyone has used and if they've seen the same performance gains, if you don't have anything intelligent to add or say, just STFU and mind your own business, ok?

P.S. while all you basement dwellers were eating your Hot Pockets, I spoke with Rick Erdman at Amazon Tuning Solutions and he installed 1 on his wifes 2014 Sport and on his Dyno, he saw a gain of 80HP, so Smoke sum if that

It's junk. Period.

However, Hot Pockets are pretty damn good.

Lol.

Ok, and you know this how?

Good info.  I don't think the MAX is junk, it is however limited in scope compared to a fullblown tuner like SCT or MyCal devices.  I don't know about the 70-80 hp claims.  Sure you can turn the boost all the way up and run the car into the ground real quick.  I think that is the key here.  Does the device limit the amount of boost that can be controlled to ensure a safe zone?  Too many people think controlling cars is the same as playing a video game, and that gives devices like this a bad name.

As far as questioning, everyone is open to being questioned.  And please restrain the profanity.  While I can understand your perspective, there is no need to escalate the matter.  Respondents in this thread have been around the EB community for quite some time, heard quite a few stories, and experienced many mods firsthand.  You wanted an opinion, so you got it, unfortunately.

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Seems to me you came to this forum based on some knowledge and belief this crowd here has some knowledge and experience. A seasoned crowd. And based upon your registration you have been an active member here for ALMOST 24 hours at the time of my writing this! Then you come in throwing rocks at those very people who are trying to give you working opinion. That you asked for! Have some humility and respect for yourself and others here. My advice, while you may have been around racing, cars, tuners, boost juice, apple sauce, and anything else associated with adding more power to cars, establish yourself first as a MAN! Not as some smart mouth punk kid who knows more than God!

If you bothered searching the forum, the boostmax discussion has come up quite a few times in the past. Here is one here....  http://www.ecoboostperformanceforum.com/index.php/topic,6144.0.html

So bottom line, YOU MUST GIVE RESPECT IN ORDER TO GET RESPECT!!!!!!!!!

Is this the same Rick from Amazon that was a supporting vendor that got run off the Lightning forums about 3 years ago for his inability to tune a Ford Lightning?
