I see that you removed the JB4 but this is my reasoning for why you don't want it (and you can always sell it quickly on classifieds here, of course):
You can have a JB4 hijack some sensors and add another means of failure to your system or you can use the stock ECU, which in your case provides the same functionality, but with over a hundred complex maps changed to provide stock like drivability and reliability. The JB4 is not a failsafe and your stock ECU is already equipped to protect the engine from a variety of threats, most notably high EGT and detonation.
At this point JB4 is ONLY useful for running meth, nitrous, or doing quick boost limit changes since those are functionalities not provided by a remapped ECU. And for the last one, you can just take 3 minutes to write a new flash, so it's not much of an advantage. How often do you change boost levels anyway? Probably only when changing fuels or running an event, so a 3 minute reflash isn't a big deal.

Well, JB4 went back in today. The JB4 only controls boost, nothing else. The BEF does what you mentioned for fueling, timing, etc. When I first went for a drive I knew I wasn't gonna keep it. CEL can't be cleared without the cable, can't BT monitor. I did buy the S2 maps and the e85 mix map. I asked for a refund because I want to go back to the BEF.
