I went with the stoptech pads because based on other users feedback, the pedal was a bit spongy and initial bite wasn't good with the BMW pads. I heard dust was terrible as well. The stoptechs are very nice. No noise, little dust (less dust then my stock gray brembo m sport brakes) and the initial bite is like stock. So they are a win/win for me. Thanks my man!! Good luck with the new 340

Had a blast over the weekend at Beast Coast Shootout Event at Maple Groove Raceway in PA. We had a huge BMW turnout and a lot of N55s/f80s there.
Shoutout to Aatish for some badass pics

Regarding BM3 & JB4 comparison... I wrote this in another thread where a member was trying to pick between the two: BM3 is far superior then JB4 from a drivability standpoint. It's also Safer and more consistent as you can change AFR and don't get timing drops... jb4 cannot change the air/fuel ratio. BM3 is also a lot more expensive when you compare them side to side. JB4 isn't bad for a plug and play application and it can make some nice power... but for me it just didn't drive as nice as stock. BM3 and flash tunes are miles ahead because you are actually tuning the cars computer (ecu) and the jb4 is a piggyback that uses the stock tune and is basically tricking the computer to up boost and change certain parameters... bmws are pretty advanced so jb4 are able to be successful with it and somewhat safe for longterm use... just again I didn't feel the consistency in between pulls or day to day. Both can be set it and forget it type of tunes if you want them to be. JB4 set it up and pick a map... BM3 set it up and leave the map... but BM3 you need to pull/unlock the ecu the first time so it is harder to set up. If I were to choose between the two... BM3 by a long shot.

JB4 was pretty good too so I am not bashing it, but a flash tune will always be better. My JB4 setup pulled hard, but I would get these random boost surges mid pull and between shifts that drove me nuts lol... plus some timing drops. None of which I see with a flash tune/BM3. My BM3 setup is faster as well. To answer your question - yes you can stack. JB4 can be used for meth control or port injection and you can run the back end flash to control everything else. If not using these, its not really worth it to stack. Some use JB4 for boost control and use a BEF for AFR and timing, etc. but there is no reason as it adds complexity and again you may suffer from overall smoothness and drivability which as you can tell is big for me. My car drives as smooth as stock, just a lot faster. Down low for everyday driving it feels awesome, JB4 was a bit finicky with hard boost and torque out of no where. I didn't really notice it as much until I actually switched to BM3 and now the difference was clear to me. This is my experience. Also - no real need for me to stack, stock turbo is maxed out on current tune so I see no benefit from the JB4. I am keeping it for now just in case I plan to utilize it in the future and no point in really selling it ATM, but honestly I don't see myself using it anytime soon lol.

I've always enjoyed your build and am glad to see you've gone down the road on a few of the items I am considering. As much as I'd love to go as low as where you're at, I already scrape my front lip bolts while lowered on H&Rs...but damn, your ride height looks good. This also means losing my EDC in favor of either Bilsteins or Ohlins. Decisions, decisions...

Such a great looking car, so clean! I'm jealous of the 6MT and Estoril Blue combo, definitely rare.

Thanks boss!! Yes took me a while to find this combo and then I picked it up a few states away when I decided to go for it and pull the trigger. It is quite rare I haven't seen to many RWD, 6MT, EB combos out there.

I absolutely love this car! Hope my EBII f32 looks half as decent as this when I'm done with it.
