Tuner Selection

I have been looking at 3 different brands of tuners, I知 leaning to the JB4 because of the functions it has as its very similar to my EZ link on my Ram Diesel. All three claim same approximate hp/tq, I知 looking at changing either just the air filter with K&N or BMS or intake system along with an aftermarket Charge pipe kit.

The claims are very similar as you say. The 80-90 lbs. of torque would be great as you are going to feel that every time you touch the accelerator. Love that larger displacement V8 low end grunt.

End up purchasing an AFE drop in filter as it has deeper pleats then the K&N, also looking the charge pipe kit from VR Speed Factory but i need to call them Monday as there listing shows 2016-2019 B58 but only X3 & X4 along with other models but no X5 listed.

I ended up purchasing FTP Motorsport charge pipe kit and intake pipe after going through multiple vendors. This intake pipe will eliminate the sound box.
