Doing, what I do for a living, I can assure you it was hooked up correctly.

THAT being said .. what Mike just posted, made me look deeper. I have no problem saying this is what happened. The ground is fried.

I wish I would have the opportunity to speak with him first. ... would have saved all the bs ..

The timing was insanely crazy .. as we all know, the intake is generally not anywhere near where one would hide the JB4, so that certainly was not the issue (hitting it, or otherwise)

Having it for months, running perfectly, then one change .. bingo bango ... all hell breaks loose.

It's uncanny ...

So, my sincere apologies to BMS, had I been given this idea first .. no one would have heard of anything ..


To all the folks who slam people for going against the popular voice, bite me.

Right or wrong, everyone has a right to their opinion.
you hid your jb4 near the intake?? _@

Exactly! People think that just because they had a good experience that others may not have had a horrible experience with the same company.

In fact, I get suspicious if i never see a single negative thing when looking at reviews.

A complaint about lack of customer service is very valid so those who got all worked up because the OP complained about a product or vendor they like are being kind of silly. He is totally entitled to speak of his experience, whether positive or negative.

No problem. At least you know what happened, and if it comes up again people who read this will know how to easily fix it. If you forward me your email address I can relay it to BMS as they are interested to see who at their office dropped the ball on getting you the piece of information you needed to prevent this headache. They can also replace the JB4 board for you so you can sell it or whatever.

Waiting for his report later today. If he has a great experience I will follow suit. Just wish Bimmerworks had a Dynonameter so we could see a before and after picture.

Dinan Stage 1, completely installed.

First impressions... 15 miles (had to stop to eat).

Def feel it.. MUCH smoother then the JB4....

I'll do another update after this fat guy eats.

Dyno place across the street... Vette shop I think.

Didn't have time to investigate the place today...

I'll do it when the intake is out, and stage two.

Going back to Bimmerworks for springs and bump stops
