Yes BMS=burger motorsports/burger tuning. Yes the jb+ that is pictured is same thing I have.

It's not out yet. I'm an alpha tester. Should be in next couple of weeks though.

Very satisfied. My plan was to go jb4 all along. I plan on alot more heavy modding like meth, downpipe, and eventually a turbo swap when the fuel cap is lifted. I just wanted to help the community out and test the jb+.

Also like the boost by gear features of jb4, logging, more aggressive maps, the display gauges for my phone etc.

Put my springs on yesterday. Went from roughly 3 finger gap to 1 or a little less. My springs have 10k miles on them since I got em local from another owner. I do not have any of the bounciness that others have said they have. I don't know if its because they are broke in well or its the retuuned suspension in the 340i LCI's. Rides great in comfort and sport. Actually don't notice a change at all. Either way I'm happy.

More pics to come.



For those looking to do it themselves. I followed this tutorial.

http://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/att...3&d=1401934841

I did do it slightly different.

I didn't change bumpstops so I didn't have to remove rear shocks. The rears maybe took me 30 minutes. But I followed all other steps on the rear.

On the front I only turned the wheel as directed in tutorial. Removed the sway bar link and undid the bolts at the top hat. There are 5 bolts at the top of 340i LCI instead of the 3 in tutorial. I didn't loosen the bottom shock mount or any of the lower suspension arms. I also didn't remove the coilovers assembly from the car either. I simply swung out the shock and used the spring compressor, took top hat off then installed the new spring and swung it back into place. I used a jack under the front hub assembly to lower and raise it as needed.

The springs took me 2 hours by myself. But I have a lift and air tools available to me.

I'm not sure how shops are charging 5-6 hours labor to do this. I could do it faster a second time.

Your F30 looks awesome! The drop makes such a difference with the stance and overall appearance.
