Few Questions Regarding the JB+ Engine Tune
I've already purchased this tune from BMS but I have a few questions regarding it that maybe I should have asked first, Maybe you guys can help?
1. When would the proper install time be for a new car? Wait until after the break in period? Wait until 3000-4000 miles on clock? Does it matter? 2. Can this simple piggy back tune cause any damage to the motor/DME? Thanks guys

Hi Mike-
I'm not sure you remember speaking with me but I am looking at buy a down pipe for my 340i with the b58 motor. I see that you have a VSRF 4.5" dia. catless DP for sale. I have a few questions on this: 1. Will it fit a 2018 340i, rear drive, Manual Trans? 2. What is involved with the install and can it be removed and old DP reinstalled? 3. I am looking to get more exhaust sound from car, I'm not sold on buying a new muffler so would this mod help get more sound with the factory muffler. Thanks Mike

You probably don't want to run a DP with the JB+, you'll need a JB4 to really take advantage of it and help deal with throttle closure.

Yes I agree. I ran JB+ very temporarily while I had a DP on the car. I dont recommend.

No JB4 I'm going with the flash tune. This down-pipe is suppose to not throw a CEL and so far nothing.

Please let me know how the flash is!! I have JB4 and I’m not sure if the flash will be worth it but I’m curious if the burbles addition will add more to the pops. |

I think it would run better without it yes. I was getting tons of throttle closure. not much consistency with power. it was quick around the city but opened up high rpm shifts were no bueno
