Intake will work for all, tuning preference will not matter. Jb4, Weistec, Eurocharged, etc.

join the club! I would imagine with the support for JB4 they will make a custom map to make max power with the intake.

I cant wait hoping to be lucky enough to get one in the first shipment.

BMS can we give you our CC and info ahead of time so you can ship them out as soon as you get them in stock?

I would also like to add that I took a detailed survey of the stock intake system and there is notable room for improvement, such as the size of the pipes going to the turbo, the Burger tuning pipes are much larger, further more the elimination of the stock rectangular intake tubes, should also allow for much better airflow and quicker spool up. Very excited for this!!

Speaking of intakes, has anyone got much experience with using aftermarket air filters (K&N, BMC or the likes) on this platform? Any gains - especially for tuned cars?

Not from personal experience but I recall it not affecting performance much as OEM is "already" porous enough. Heard rumours of aftermarket filters disintegrating into the pipes though... <-- Don't let that scare you though, seems rare.

I would say yes seeing as it is same basic engine.

But I am just guessing I don't work for BT

Thanks for this - I'll wait for them to update us in due time.

I'm keeping the mods to my C400 to a minimum and I feel like these Intakes paired with the JB4 will really set this thing on fire!

have performance exhaust so I am happy with that.

I was considering the DPs but I would need them catted and I am leased so that would be a pain in the *** on return

Plus imo the DPs change the pitch of the exhaust a tingy sound that I do not prefer.

But then again when I bought the car I told myself I was not going to mod it!

So I change my mind all the time
