JB4+BCM

Just ordered a JB4+BCM going to have it installed on Friday this week. Can't wait to see the difference in power!

Right now i only have Eventuri Air Intake. I plan on doing catless dp's and stage 2 JB4+BCM in the next month or so.

Yeah, both intake noise and turbos. Sounds pretty similar to MSR at WOT, but cruising around town it is quieter than the MSR. I am only judging this off of videos i have heard, so i could be underestimating the sound of the MSR.

I opted against the MSR because living in South Florida we get torrential downpours which result in large puddles/flooding, and having the air filters exposed that much just didn't sit right with me.

Who are you having doing the JB4 installation? I am also in Ft. Lauderdale and was thinking of doing the same JB4 set up as well. I went with the MSR intakes on my M6.

Do the JB4/BMC first- you may just be happy at that power level

Going DP's does throw possible issues with noise, rattle, smell. Also JB4 can be set to exceed you standard clutch holding threshold easliy (~23psi<) so clutch slip will be a limiting factor before you can ever get to push the OEM downpies and any gains from aftermarket c@tless DP's

JB4+BCM and Catless DP's installed, so far could not be more happy with the result. Factory CP exhaust (Valve closed is great for when the wife is in the car, WOT nice and loud)

All in all i am extremely happy with the result. I am leaving to head to germany tomorrow and won't be back until after the 4th. I will write more of a review along with pics and reviews when i have some miles on the car.

Just need some wider tires for TRACTION!

Sounds great! Can you post up what downpipes you went with and cost? I was considering the jb4 stage 1 and maybe throwing on some catless downpipes if I can find them at a reasonable price.

Do it- easy install (even if instructions are not the best to give you confidence prior to getting stuck in) loads of great features, from boost control by gear, different maps to help wife, valet, service, wet or race conditions, logging and code reading/clearing , meth control to name but a few...

Depends if you have the competition package or not - map 2 if you do, map 1 if you don't.
