First Mods - Injen Intake and JB+
I've had my JB+ installed for a week or so and have definitely enjoyed the increase in power. Today I installed the Injen Intake, and the install was one of the easiest in my experience.
My initial impressions: -The biggest surprise is that the new intake resulted in my CEL disappearing. I've been getting the infamous P00BD code since the car was stock and it disappeared immediately upon start up. -I could hear more of the high pitch turbo sound after installing the JB+, but it is subtle. With the Injen Intake I definitely can hear it more pronouncedly, but it is still subtle in my opinion. -The sound of air sucking into the intake is not very noticeable inside the cabin. However, Popping the hood and revving to 5k rpm lets out a sound of moving air that is almost too hard on the ears. Sounds really good, but I was hoping to achieve the sound inbetween gear shifts (I'm manual) not just when revving. The exhaust also burps more often and a little deeper. -Performance wise there is definitely a change in throttle response and power curve. I feel like the mid range fell off a little bit, but initial torque feels more prominent. -The only cons so far I will keep an eye on are a mild burning smell (maybe the rubber pieces breaking in) and a little bit of subtle random hesitation in 1st gear (might disappear while ECU adjusts to the mod).

Thank you for sharing your review OP.
I always recommend Jb4 with an open air intake on this car

Is XPH considered a certified retailer where BMS will take JB+ credit towards trade to JB4?

BMW N26 Tune
Hey guys, looking for some help. I want to tune my car but I don't know where to start. I bought an Injen Air Intake, but have not installed it. My car is a 2013 BMW 328i xDrive n26 engine, it is bone stock. I am thinking about the JB+ tune but I'm not sure if I need to add engine mods to it, such as a down pipe or exhaust system. Please help me out understand what needs to be done or if I can just plug the JB+ tune in without engine mods. I want something that is easy and doesn't need work done to the engine. I would really appreciate the help!

Your first mod should have been a charge pipe. Before you go any farther make sure you get that OE plastic charge pipe swapped with a good metal one.
