To be more specific, the OEM MAP connection will not come off.

Yeah. Seems simple now that its done. I was near banging my head on the wall for about 15 minutes.

Holy hell does this little mod make a big difference! This thing brought my 428 to life. I am shocked at how much stronger the car is now.

Then try the JB4. Even more get up and go for the 328i than stage 1.

the best thing to do is to get a flathead screwdriver to lift the clip rather than press on the button to release the clip. pressing the clip never worked for me

Removing the connector the first time can be tricky ... Glad you are enjoying your new tune
