Had a blonde moment with Terry at BMS

First I wannt to say, that customer service with BMS is something I've never encountered in the tuner/automotive world. Patience, time and commitment to the customer was something I can't stop praising Terry on. 3 days and about 25 emails that was answered within minutes (Not 5 or 10 or 30, but minutes). Anyways I hooked up the jb3 WRONG. had black and red wires on the main connecture and black and red wire on sub connectors. PDF would've shown me that all black wires on one side and all red wires on the other. I don't know what the hell I was thinking. So future users, don't just used the video as an install guide. Once again 1000 thank yous to Terry.

I'm definitely a "fan boy" of BMS. It's only valid, logical and sound because of the kind of service I recieved from the founder, proprietor and operator of BMS. I'm 29 years old and not new to the game. What I am new to is the kind of service Terry offers. Like I said, from my experience since I've been in the game at 18 years old, this kind of service is unheard of from my experiences. If some enthusiasts are concerned with the smoothness and daily driving ability of JB3 versus other tuners, I promise you that BMS makes up for it if they need to because 1)JB3 2.0 beta is near perfect at 100%, 2)BMS is working on other options that real enthusiasts would love to see and have and 3) Terry commits more than 100% to his customer (includes time, patience and commitment). He's not going to leave you hang and dry after he's recieved your money.

I agree with you 100% when it comes to customer service and I look forward to working with Terry to dial my JB3 2.0 in over the coming weeks and reporting back on the results vs. PROcede V4 on a pure drivability and performance level.

hun, no reason the guy can't post about his experience... it's certainly valid in this section, even if it is a bit over the top in terms of the praise, but maybe he's just that enthused.

hahaha, wow someone says something good about the JB3/BMS and someone asks the thread to be closed.. lmao! The guy is a bit over the top in his praise, but only in the way he expresses it.

Congrats! enjoy it and be safe.

Terry is awesome!

p.s: the black and red look is not so bad

Guys, realize I'm only over the top because I haven't experienced this kind of customer service before. Let alone, from the founder and owner of the compay.

What would be the Proper section of the forum to post something of this nature??

Threads like these have ugly ends because of hater comments like yours.
I agree 100% BMS has THE BEST customer service. BMS is never too busy and no question is ever irrelevant. You get an answer for EVERYTHING. FAST!

Keep up the great work BMS

I don't even think I could wire my ECU up like that considering the BMW cables originally going into the small ECU connector have literally no slack on them. That's pretty impressive 335R1.

lol @ install! Good thing you were able to get it corrected. I bought from Mike@N54tuning, and he has supplied the same, quick, excellent customer service.

He is giving credit where credit is due in regards to customer service on a tune. Last I checked, this was the Turbo / FI Engine section.

OP: I've also had nothing but amazing customer service from Terry. If I send an email to him, I always know it will be answered within the hour at most. It really does feel like I have my own personal tuner working only for me. This kind of personal attention goes a very long way if you ask me. Enjoy your tune!

Definitely, customer service contributes alot more than people think! I think Terry is the man, and I guess the good thing about amazing customer service is the loyalty
that comes
with it!

That's the business model I try to employ as well and Terry has really set the standard for customer service here.
