3. FTP Charge pipe
4. FTP intake pipe
5. BMS open billet intake
6. BM3

Love the performance it deliver. But after several discussion with PTF, and due to minor accident, i removed the BMS open billet intake and now using stock intake.

PTF said, their tune is designed and tested to work with stock intake, and they not recommend us to use any aftermarket intake.

After i revert back to stock intake, i do feel that the performance is better and throttle response is much better. But i lost the fun noise of aftermarket intake.
Awesome! Thank you for the response, glad to see someone with success in tuning the B48. I looked through some of your posts, it seems that I'll probably want a XHP transmission tune for my 8AT as well...funny that the intake actually makes things worse - is it related to heat soak? Have you dyno'd? I feel that basic bolt ons and tune should get the B46/48 to 300whp. I'm going to be doing intake + tune first so will report back soon...will start with just tune and see if the intake makes things worse like yours
