What does it sound like? Our cars dont have acoustic glass breakage sensors (that I know of) so i wonder what causes our alarms to go off. lol.

my bmw from 2002 had a tilt sensor (in case someone tries to tow or lift the vehicle) and interior motion sensor in case someone sticks their hand in an open window. i dont think our cars do that right?

Mine actually has the interior/cabin motion sensor alarm whereby if any movement is detected after the alarm is armed, it will go off. Does not have the tilt sensor though.

When you say existing Stage 1 customers, you're referring to those that already have the BMS piggyback?

Yes. The JB4 uses a different motherboard from the Stage 1 since it adds more features and an OBD port connector for live engine readings.

I see! Would it be an addition to the piggyback or replacement?

If you have a Stage 1 then its an upgrade since its using the same wiring harness and just replacing the control board in the unit.

maybe it makes that noise when you leave it running and it doesn't sense the key fob. once i took mine to the car wash and left the fob in my pocket and noticed when the car comes out of the other end of the building that's it's making a noise.

For those that bought a downpipe from TTI, did it come with bolts and gaskets or did you reuse everything that came off the OEM pipe? Thanks!

Not sure if they are running a scam lol. I've heard from other members that they are known for BMW tuning, but i wasn't able to find any reviews or feedback from the 200t tune.
