JB4 Installer - Madison, WI area
I've read it's "super easy" and I consider myself competent having done suspension, downpipes, etc. before.
However, I want someone else to do this one... just... do. I don't feel confident. Thanks for any replies. ![]() |

I'm up in the Fox Valley (Appleton) and did it myself. If you've done suspension and downpipes, you'll be fine!

If you have done what you say you have, the install is cake. "Toughest" part is hooking up the CAN wires and that is not too bad at all. Actually the toughest part is probably fitting your hand down to reach the wastegate. Takes no time at all. It is certainly something you can tackle and if you cant figure it out, revert quickly. There are no steps that would leave you stuck and you couldnt revert.
I know you want help, but I thought I would add that info just in case you can't find an installer. Good luck |

I would tackle it on your own, at least make an attempt. The DIY's online and guides on N54 Tech are great. Just take your time and complete each step, paying close attention to the routing of wires. When I installed mine, it took about 2 hours start to finish. Keep in mind, I took a bunch of extra time routing the wires, using loom and zip ties to make for a cleaner install.
