why would you want to use JB4 and MHD together?
A piggyback will never be better than an actual flash tune.
He is talking about an MHD Backend flash (BEF) for JB4. It is a flash tune intended to be used with a JB4 in combination.

Gives additional fueling, lower lambda, etc but lets the JB4 handle boost control with its PIDs/etc. It does work quite well and easily meets or exceeds power figures of OTS flash maps.

I meant using jb4 and MHD or just MHD

My statement still stands. The jb4 does not have the amount of control and safeties as the factory ecu.

Get a flash leave the jb4 for those who literally can't flash the ecu.

Double the tune, double the power ?
I've had staff think they could double their internet speed by being on wireless and wired. True story.

It makes 0 sense to do that when you can adjust all of those parameters in the ECU with MHD.

People want what they want ?‍♂ The few BEF people I've worked with liked tweaking the JB4 on their own and not waiting weeks/months between flash revisions. It's just simplified tuning for DIY.

Gonna end up at roughly the same power levels anyway. @Phantomx did ~490whp on E40 with more power on the table, before he sold.

Not recommended for people who don't understand tuning.

You should tell them to turn on their Bluetooth too, it'll triple their internet speed!

Damn, I've been scouring the forums for days researching which tuning software to pick. I know the correct answer will always be Ecutek because I do own a 2020 Launch Edition, so my ECU date should be 2019 or early 2020. I just personally don't think Ecutek is worth it for me because I don't plan on going all out since this is my daily. Ecutek is also significantly more expensive.

I'm just looking to wake the car up, and have the option of beating most cars on the road and to adjust burbles settings (turn off). So a basic OTS Stage 2 93 octane map seems the most appealing to me. Maybe future me is shaking their head right now, but I don't plan on doing anything like FlexFuel or upgrading the Turbo. So a lot of the features that both BM3 and MHD+ looks the same...?

I'm assuming it's Ecutek > MHD+ > BM3 > MHD > JB4, as of this post? Even if I stick to just OTS maps?

current setup/plans:

Armaspeed Intake
FTP Charge Pipe (I know I could've stayed stock since I don't plan on going beyond stage 2)
Kenji Garage's Catless Downpipe (waiting for September shipment)
Custom Exhaust (waiting on downpipe)

Ecutek doesn't have OTS maps. BM3 or MHD offer OTS maps and would be exactly what you are looking for.

go MHD or BM3. fuck ecutek, it's a headache of a platform. even "future you" can be provided with a properly dialed-in tune on MHD or BM3
