What are the benefits to running JB4 with BEF Vs JB4 only?
That is the real question...
Much faster car with superior safety systems and better boost control.
You just gave me the clarity of mind and understanding of the JB4 system I've been looking for. Thanks a Million, I'm buying the JB4 for my 2011 E90 335i Performance Edition 6AT.
I've run my custom tune for about 70000 miles.
During this time I have not changed spark plugs, coil packs, or any other engine component except for the HPFP one time.
I'm sure the JB4 system can be a great tool, but hearing how often US 335i owners change this and that (according to RUclips videos), I will happily stick to my custom tune.
System has not thrown a single code except for when my HPFP went. Cudos to ESS for making a killer tune!
zemekiel No sense changing if it's working perfect on yours - I hear ya!
I'll just stay stock lol
zemekiel Make sure to change those plugs and coils though! Every 15k miles when tuned to keep your car performing at its best👌🏻
I would say his coding errors on Ecu are gone forever 🤣🤣🤣
Good god man. Change your plugs.
I see that the JB4 System is amazing and well supported, thanks for the detailed info!
I just installed inlets, RB turbo Twos, catless downpipes, and a jb4 with backend flash. It’s super helpful to know I can adjust spool aggression because of the bigger turbines
Remember the more you crank up that turbo, the more fuel youre gonna need. If you haven't upgraded your HPFP, you'll have too shortly lol
Now do one on the cons of the jb4 and pros of a flash only.
CON, only two 1) Cost 2) Complexity that's it.
Will this be updated? MHD has been improved in several iterations since this vid was created.
Doesnt the JB4 NEED a seperste relay & harness etup for NLS & 2-Step/Launch Control? It did need that back when i had ,y JB4 G5 ISO.
The Etahnol Sensor is also needed to be purchased seperastely for E85 "Flex Fuel" Setup.. It is also needed to be installed in-line with the LPFP fuel supply line to the HPFP, so that the JB4 can get an accurate Ethanol Content % reading...
Anthony G Exactly. This fanatic guy is just pushing the JB4 without being honest about the entire spiel which is unfortunate.
I MHD flashed stage 2+ on my E60 535xi with a manual transmission , upgraded turbos , catless downpipes , charge pipe with BOV , 2.25 inch inlet pipes and K&N cones and 93 octane , as heavy as this car is this set up turned it to a beast , my friend's 2017 C63 AMG gets beat by my BMW every time , MHD flash has been fantastic to me , how would the JB4 be better ?
This is the video I was looking for. You didn't quite answer my question before. This now paints a clearer picture. Thanks.
Great video but out of date. MHD has greatly advanced over the last 3 years since this video was made. It appears to be equal to JB4. MDH now claims same level of monitoring and protection. JB4 now claims full engine adjustment such as timing.
Need new review!
not sure if you saw my comment but this is exactly the video i was looking for! Thank you :)
I have Jw before with pure turbos and I was wondering what the back in flash is going to do for me? Does it give you much more power?
Hey all, I have a 2008 535i and I'm new to this whole MOD life. First of all I'd like to say that I'm learning a lot of great info and I site here. My goal is to increase my power and performance and get as much out of my car as I can without damaging it and keeping it street legal. I actually paid a mechanic to do all of this along with some other things and now we're in court because he didn't do a thing but ran off with the money. So I'm open and hoping to get some real first step advice .
whats good bro i got the same car 08 535i rear wheel drive im tellin you one of the best bmw tuner engines .These engines come out the factory with forged internals i know ppl pushin 400 420 whp with stock turbos just tune and cat less down pipes . Best bet just go the route i did full bolt on with a jb4 or mhd tune and you can easy get up to 450 whp if you upgrade your turbos easily 525-600 whp so just look into the full bolt on route you wont regret it .
Once I have a BEF installed can I use the Jb4 steering wheel settings to make changes like going to map 5 and setting Port injection
Recently purchased a 2007 335i. And just found it has a jb4. Awesome. Question. But how can I upgrade the firmware. ??
Just Need the data cable
Does the jb4 map also map the dct ?
I might be pulling the trigger on a '14 335i m sport tomorrow since I'll need a four door in about 8 months lol. I sure will miss my n54 e92 ;(
Congrats on the addition to your Family! I have a 2013 335i M Sport sedan, you will Love it! so much torque down low in Sport Mode where you really get to use it for daily driving.
Mic Raw Congrats! Great choice 👍🏻
DAVID RIVERA thanks bud I appreciate that! I'm excited about it, I test drove it today and it was a blast!
BMW Fanatic thanks brother! You know I'll still be tuning in for sure even though I won't have my beloved n54 anymore :)
DAVID RIVERA how's reliability?
How much is burger paying you to try and keep jb4 relevant?
I know this video is old but did you have to change the default jb4 settings after you did the back end flash?
Just have to do the JB4 backend flash option 4/2 option I believe if I remember. Other than that you don’t need to change anything else
Wait so I don't need an ethanol sensor when running jb4 bef?
i bought jb4, bef, bluetooth. Listened to the hype about MHD alone, so sold the jb4 and went mhd. Now i almost regret doing it, mainly because i lost bluetooth, safety,mmeth controls and better app
Mhd now is way better then jb4 alone, it has Bluetooth and works with iOS now with way more settings
How did you get you lights so bright? Mine are so dim
if i went with flash alone can i down the line uninstall it and add a jb4 then a backflash
+jammerjamjam1 Of course, just flash back to stock
What are your thoughts on Icarly app? I'm thinking about getting it to code a couple things on my car
Dominic Trejo It does well for what it does. A BMW coder can do more (all depends what you're trying to add)
Thanks I just asked this question!
Love your vids. Keep them coming.
+Steve Kalesia 👍🏻
Like the stuff you do , looking for some suggestions from you. I just picked up a 2007 335xi bmw, 1 owner car very well kept 70,000 miles. What do I do first 🤔
JB4 and WMI, then downpipes and drag radials. After that BEF, maybe Pure turbo upgrade, in-tank pump upgrade.
Good stuff!
With jb4, are we able to clear the check engine light when going catless downpipe??
yes
Great effin video!!!
I'm too scared to even mess with my n54 535... Feel like with my luck I'll blow its turbos the same day
+Ignasty Vlog Nah man you're good 😀👍🏻
Ignas Vlog I’ve crossed my finger hoping they would blow for an excuse to go single turbo for 3 years....I’ve gave up....
Are those style 124 rims? I want a set for my 535xi
Starboi GlobalEnt 162 style
Ok thanks. If those fit 08 e60 xi I'll take em. If anyone anyones selling or trading style 124 I want them.
Can you run Cobb with jb4?
When it comes to upgrading your turbos. Which ones are better? Single turbo kit or Upgraded twins? Because I'm looking to make 700 to 750 rwhp on my E92
Single
Definitely single especially at those power levels. Look into the single turbo kit by one of the three-four main companies making single turbo kits for the 335i E9X N54’s.
Can you use the rev limiter or anti lag on the AT?
BayAreaLobbies same question 🤔
Same question?
thanks man
Bmw fanatic I have a quiestion . I have the same exact car as yours I been thinking about putting the gb4 the only thing I don’t want is my cluster lighting up with check engines or giving false readings . What do you suggest?
MHD
Hey! Awesome video!! I wish I had a N54 to plug this delicious Juice Box on mine. Unfortunately I ride a 330 E90. BMW Fanatic, would be able to point me to possible performance upgrades to the N52 engine?
Congrats for the excelent vid quality and content. Very clarifying.
i am not a expert but i would say start with a good intake and exhuast system
E90 BR I would go with a tune first since you would get a great bang for your buck! Then add on the other stuff that would bring out the tune even more.
Same here haha
i'm still confused about the jb4 backend flash? i'll have to rewatch the video again.
It gives you more control and allows the JB4 to do it's thing better. No matter what you are working with the stock tune with the JB4. There are things it can't do and it can't ratchet down torque limits. So, the BEF supports all of that by allowing the JB4 dig in and really improve performance beyond that of a base flash. Basie flashes have to changed if say you are running WMI. The benefit of the JB4 it always knows if you are using WMI or not depending on settings. What you basically get is about as close to a stand alone with additional inputs that typically don't get flash tuning and it's all on the fly.
@BMWFanatic : With FMC + Charge Pipe + Down Pipe +Twin air filters + JB4. Car is a daily driver. Is that a good combination or MHD does some magic with JB4 that it is required ?
Add the BEF, I don't see why you wouldn't. The car is much faster with a BEF than without it and faster than a flash alone.
Get out map 5 control's 2step rev limiter??? Didn't know for Sure buddy!!😁 Great!!
N54 Lord is it possible to run 2step on auto transmission ?
fadhel touq think so if your running jb4 and you have already went catless.....otherwise you'd probably burn them up revving around 5k
But i don't think you can launch with AT 🤔
fadhel touq nope i don't think you can either...im manual....for an AT it would be like trans braking if you could!
Do you recommend me swap to manual ? I have DCT transmission
Also the JB4 Usb Cable should be included with the JB4 Kit. They're going to charge you $500+ and not include a cable that i fell is necessary, that costs them what $3-$5 max to make.. Its a Specially Pinned USB -to- Serial (RS232) Cable. Hence the reason it states on the website a regular USB TO SERIAL converter cable can NOT be used. I purchased the cable b/c i feel much more comfortable doing a firmware update to the JB4 using a USB cable developed for the JB4 and a laptop, running the JB4 PC Program. I mean really its the least they can do is included the stupid little, cheap cable.
Also the JB4 APP & Bluetooth Connect Kit is around $100 or more. Which further solidifies my opinion, that the hardwired cable, needed to make changes and updates with a PC laptop to the JB4 Hardware Unit itself. I'm not knocking the JB4 AT ALL, it is a great product, and still to this day, shows how important it is to the E90 Tuning Scene, as well as MANY newer F-series BMW's (M3, M3, M4, 328i, 320i, 330i, 230i, M240i, etc)
Stop whining, you pay to play or find another option.
@@dj4monie You realize that this comment is over 3 years old now..
And I still to this day think the JB4 should just come with the USB cable included.
Its needed for basic things like JB4 firmware updates and setting changes..
I dont want to perform an update to it wirelessly and have an issue in the process..
And I have a JB4 G5 ISO in my garage and MHD flashed on my DME right now. So your comment is just dumb and pointless..
@@dj4monie I have a JB3 you can have so you can play with the big boys..!!
Good stuff, but…Old content needs a refresh with current MHD
JB4 is definitely the way to go!
Love your videos man but are you just reading the manual?
Brett Shiring there's no manual, but needed to drop a lot of info to say the least. Thanks for watching!
Lol you read straight from n54 tech forum you liar
Price difference. Link doesn't work
👍
Jb4 is a flash doesnt actually tune your vehicle
