Assuming you already have the car.

We know all too well how people buy mods for a car they don't even have in their possession yet.

When do we foresee this coming out of beta? Are there timelines historically that tell us how long they are beta for? Any reason not to get it in Beta? is it easily upgrade able to final product?

JayDD007 · 01-13-2016, 09:11 PM

Received mine today, after staring at it all day at work i had it installed in 5 minutes. I'm impressed to say the least, quite a drastic increase over stock. Exactly what i was hoping for coming from my FBO N54. Great job so far Terry

It all depends on how the testing goes

Any reason not to get it in Beta?
Judging from the past Beta JB4s, no reason not to get it now

Thanks! and last Q, do you need to buy that BMS Data cable to upgrade out of beta or is it upgraded another way?

Yes you will need the USB cable for any firmware upgrades

Even easier, the only difficult part is removing the two t30s under the dash and running the obd cable through the firewall, and finding the install guide oddly enough

JayDD007 and jeebops
How did you find the run things through the firewall? I'm seeing two grommets, one really big one and another one facing down. I'm guessing your used the big one. Is this correct.

Grommet

The large grommet is in the center of the photo. I'm not excited about the thought of removing such a large grommet (its roughly 3.5" in diameter), but if thats what it takes, then i'll do it, with the thought of mmodifying it soon. Thanks!

Labeef · 01-16-2016, 06:44 PM

WOW, that's awesome.

The one on my car was about 1-1.5" in diameter, I don't see it in that picture. I removed it and sealed it with some putty. There is a install guide on n54tech in the b58 section that shows a picture of it.

MrF30 · 01-17-2016, 12:47 PM

Good stuff, JB4 is in my future.

I believe I used the same grommet as JayDD007....I cut a small "x" in it and fed the OBD cable through it and replaced it

Bmw doubles · 01-17-2016, 06:42 PM

The 340 is seeming like a good next car.

secretsquirrel · 01-17-2016, 07:25 PM

Thanks for the replies jeebops and JayDD007. It looks like the difference may be that your automatic and I have a manual. I've got a few ideas on how to get it through. Thanks for your responses. I'm looking forward to the extra power!

Let us know what you end up doing, mine is a manual and I'll be installing sometime in the next week...

Will do. I should get it done this week sometime. I planned on doing this weekend, but family crap came up.

I don't expect it to be a big deal.

JayDD007 · 01-18-2016, 12:02 PM

Is there any word whether the JB4 will be able to stack with the Power and Sound kit? I want the full exhaust that comes with that kit but can't see it being worth it if the MPPK doesn't increase power at all.

then buy an aftermarket exhaust when they come out ^

My JB4 just came in, I'll update soon

Per Terry

Did a little dyno testing today with our prototype intake and VM's prototype DP. Runs were done on 93 octane, no meth flowing, so we could try to get a close to apples to apples comparison of before. I was not able to get a run of just the DPs without the intake this go around but previous testing with the intake showed around 7-8whp gains. So the rest is the combination of the DP and slightly more aggressive mapping allowable with the bolt on parts.
