Can anyone tell me what is the advantage of the conventional "remapped ecu" over the piggyback flash and vice versa?? I know right now piggyback seems to be the only option and which brand would be recommended?? Tks!

I would take a remapped ecu any day over a piggyback, i feel its a much safer and better way to go. A piggyback it seems like its fooling the stock ecu to think its running stock but the output of the piggyback adjusts a few sensor to get more power. In the audi/vw world we only did ecu flash's no piggybacks. 1 advantage i see with the piggyback is you can remove it and go to the dealer on a stock ecu.

Installed today! Went pretty smooth. I wanted to let others know who may be in the same boat as me (MacBook Air user), that I had no troubles using the free Windows 8 Preview OS via Parallels software. Just double clicked the driver app that comes with the JB3 software (found on n54tech website), after that just found what the com number was and everything was smooth sailing from there.
Got out and drove it a bit. It's 32 degrees here so i never mashed it off the line, but i could definitely tell a difference. Looking forward to the day we have nice weather again and the car has fully adapted to the tune!

There's no concern regarding the torque limit on the 8-speed AT?
I'm assuming the JB tune will far exceed 330 ft/lb....

I wouldn't listen to the BMW listed torque numbers to closely. On the 7spd DCT tranny for the N55's the limit is 400tq or so according to the numbers but only those who are pushing 450wtq+ start slipping.

Is the jb even an option/recommendation for people who are not very hands on with the car? I mean I can fill air in my tires if I read the manual, but cannot do more advanced stuff like opening the hood. Is professional installation available for this in AZ?
