N55 jb4 and boost gauge question

Hello I have a 2011 335 and I want to get two step/anti lag but I'm unsure how or if it's possible. Also I'm looking into a boost gauge I like the P3 in vent gauge but was wondering if there's any type of flash or anything that will allow a gauge to appear in the factory nav unit.
Thank you

Boost gauges via obd may not be accurate with the jb4 installed, and may interrupt some data processing.

Personally I keep my fuel gauge hijacked with boost.

Also if you want a pneumatic boost gauge, you'll need to tap your charge pipe.

You can buy the JB4 Connect Bluetooth Adaptor and display Boost and lots of other data on your smartphone.

Thats what I have, works well with instant feedback. You can also check codes, update your firmware and change settings through the app and bypass the steering wheel controls. Although they still remain functional. Runs about $170 for the kit and app.

Edit: Some people use a tablet to display/run their JB4+info, witch I'm looking into buying specifically for car use. Some of the 7'' tablets fit snug in the nav screen hole on the dash. So you can just set it in there over your Nav, unless you wish to still see your map/radio.

I currently use a windshield mount for my iphone 6 that stuck in the lower left corner and extends out just over the vent above the light controls. Makes it easy to see while driving without having to look completely away from the road. Use the A pillar to rest the bendible arm against to prevent shaking/vibration.

Not recommended to run boost gauge with the JB4, as mentioned above just monitor it on your phone using the connect kit

If you have an android phone it's much cheaper too.

I also love my P3 gauge, however it CANNOT be run with JB4.

Jb4 is tricking the computers, P3 is trying to read the computer through OBD, it will cause issues.
