Installed JB3 + BMS DCI + P3 Vent Gauge

The JB3 and BMS DCI combo were definitely worth the money. I can hear my turbos for the first time! The throttle is much more responsive compared to stock and I've already seen some new highs on the boost numbers from my P3 vent gauge.

I was originally looking into just getting the JB3, and not the BMS Dual Cone intake. However, after seeing some testimonials and dynos on the BMS, I decided it was much too affordable to pass up. I'm glad I grabbed it, the sound of the turbos on some decent acceleration is seriously impressive when the intake is installed.

I'm 100% happy with these mods, and for a combined total of around 1k, I'm thrilled at the value.

The one other mod I had installed first was the BSH oil catch can, which I decided was a must for myself personally. Even if that thing doesn't ever grab any oil, It'll always give me the peace of mind that I'm not pumping sludge back into my engine.

Sweet!!! I'm sooo close to pulling the trigger on the JB3/BMS DCI....

I got exactly what you did minus the Gauge, feels like a whole new car though. I'am pretty skeptical on the DCI in the summer, i know how engine heat can effect performance. I'll wait it out and see how it does if not i'll switch to stock for summer with a k&N drop in then back to dci for winter.

Nice. I've had the JB3 sitting on my counter for a month, but I've also had a few long cranks, so I'm waiting for my fuel pump to fail before installing it. :/ The wait sucks.

With so many people running the BMS DCI's, I doubt the summer weather will make a big impact on your car. A car will run worse in hot weather compared to cool weather whether you're running a DCI or not, so you might as well put it in and enjoy it.

I was thinking the same thing. Then someone pointed out that the intake should handle air, and the FMIC will take care of the cooling. They had a nice graph and some impressive calculations, but I forgot where I saw that post... was either here or on n54tech, I forget.
