Terry recently stated [on N54tech] that non ISO is obsolete and that all new G5's are shipping with ISO. I'd say, just make the jump to ISO. I've been using ISO for about 8 months and have had nothing but good things to say personally.

From Terry@BMS:

"All JB4s shipped now are ISO. If any addl bugs pop up with it they will be addressed via software updates. Integrated is obsolete."

I'm just worried about the wastegate rattle that many are experiencing with the ISO version. I do have rattle now and while it is fairly quiet, it still bugs me a lot since my car is quiet overall.

Thanks a bunch!

Just one questions though, do I have to completely take out the JB4 and disconnect everything or can I leave it plugged in, take it apart, cut the diodes, and then upload the firmware?

all you need to do is un crew you control box processor pop it open and remove diodes.

leave everything else plugged in

then you'll be ready to upload g5 firmware 23g is the latest one
