Looks good! Keep in mind dyno results can vary day to day so be sure to do a couple runs on JB4 map0 (disabled) for same day comparisons.

It would also be great if you could even take pics of the setup of the JB4 itself so other newbs like myself can see how difficult it is to install

There are some threads here if you search, as well as detailed install guides on the n54 forum that BMS hosts for install, tuning, and general discussion

The install guide is on the N54 (C43
Model Specific) Forum. Granted the install instructions aren’t the best. But it takes about 10 mins for the hardware install, and maybe about 10 mins for the software install. Then subsequent removal or install only takes 5 mins once you’re familiar.

Sure, I can do that. Hopefully I install it correctly the first time

I found the installation instructions for JB4, but not the BCM. Still looking.

Excited to see the results and I'm sure you'll be glad you went the JB4 route.

For install, I used a combination of Burger's plans and a couple YouTube videos for different angles and helpful tips. Easy install (C450 AMG) for me so I'm sure it won't take you long at all.

JB4 installed this past weekend. Currently adapting. Will work on zeroing in with BMS over the next week or so as my schedule allows. Follow-up dyno planned for mid July.

Did you install BCM as well? Can you comment on how complicated it was to do so correctly?

Hi, yes, I installed BCM as well. It was not difficult at all. The BCM portion of the JB4 was already installed into the JB4 unit itself since I ordered them together. If you have a JB4 and then order a BCM separately, you have to connect the BCM to it. From what I understand, this is not difficult.
All I had to do was connect the BCM to the appropriate sensor on the car. This is identical to connecting the MAP1 and MAP3 sensors.
If you need any help, I am happy to provide a picture.

As one of the early BCM adopters and having to do it the "hard way," I can also confirm final install is very simple.
