Either way, if you want to give it a shot with the JB4, by all means I am curious if it will behave!
I noticed also the types of filters used. Bms choose to use a inverted cone filter. This helps get rid of turbulence. Turbulence can mess with maf readings. If you go back some years, some vehicles had a honeycomb shaped device in front of the maf to smooth the air and to keep it from being turbulent. There's a ton of factors to get a solid maf reading. The spacing of the maf sensor also plays into it. If the sensor is sitting to deep it won't read correctly. The bms intake looks to have the same mounting spacing as the oem intake.

That's a pretty nice looking display, what app are you using for that? The only thing that's the problem is that the JB4 needs the OBDII port in order to gather the extra failsafe info, so how do you connect to the car in that case? I guess if it's safe on Map2 then a quick boot around to gather the torque info won't matter.

Was thinking about the intake and heat soak. When I had mine on, the temperature was definitely higher. I definitely think an enclosed solution is better, but curious if this unit will cause any issues as we all had non-enclosed.
