After 8 days of ownership...

Go with BMS, they are high quality hub-centric and well-priced compared to Macht Schnell and Turner

I saw someone else went with 10 and 12, looked good to me. I think that's what I'll do. Thanks again bro!!

Size is contingent on my tire size too. I still have the stock tires, however I'm upgrading in the future. That will effect which spacers I need, correct? I want to go up to 305s in the rear and 285s in the front IIRC. Will 10 & 12 still fit?

Jb4 installed... Wow. It's insane. Love it!!

That big of a difference with the jb4 huh?

From stock to +3 or +5 PSI, it is a marked difference

You can feel the upward torque spike when the turbos get going

Full speed ahead with the modding, awesome. Keep it up!

Oh yea... Not stopping yet!! Exhaust is being shipped, waiting on DPs, and getting msr intake this weekend. After I have all of that installed, and get a flash tune, I'm going to enjoy the car for a while.

Warrior75 · 04-13-2017, 07:23 PM

My Dyno numbers from earlier tonight. Just jb4 stage 2.

TheHouseWon · 04-13-2017, 08:23 PM

Running a bit lean. Good numbers, though

Warrior75 · 04-13-2017, 08:51 PM

Is that something I can adjust?

Only via tune (back end flash from ESS or full tune from BPM, Mission, or DME). I am still unsure if ESS backend flash is enough for 22psi map2 or if full flash without JB4 (Map4) is better. What I am sure of is that 14 or 15 AFR is too lean and you are risking the health or your motor. With ESS or full flash you'll target 12.5 AFR.

That seals the deal for me, definitely getting a flash tune. I've decided on Bpm over ESS. Now to decide on BPM vs Epic Motorsports.

Epic pros he's local and has tons of experience with bms in general. Randy Mueller. Cons not sure how much experience he has with this platform. Haven't seen much on the boards, how he states he has tuned a number of s63tu's. He said he bases his tune on the CP...

Bpm lots of obvious pros. Con would be shipping out the DME. Not the end of the world really, but still a pain.

Decisions... Decisions... Leaning towards BPM. I love the idea of my tuner being local, but I'm leaning towards BPM.

Also considering bm3... I think that should be included as an option. If I don't do the bm3, once bpm flashes me, they can remote flash me without the bm3?
