BMS JB4 Reliability after 70k miles!

I always see people asking about reliability of tunes and myself wondered a few years ago how they would affect things long term. Just wanted to give a little update on a couple vehicles. Between my old M235 and wife's soon to be old X5 we have over 69k miles on BMS stage 1 tunes and they have been totally flawless (except for the increased need for new rear tires). Cars were both tuned with 100 miles and have run flawlessly. Fear not those keeping cars long term and enjoy the benefits of the piggy tunes. Just amazing the power left on the table due to model stratification!

Glad to hear about your results. The stage 1 is a very mild up-tick in power and boost, and shouldn't really affect long term reliability in a standard street usage model.
