Just purchased it on Monday and came in today! I'm new to JB4s so I apologize for my ignorance but is the best way to produce the most power out of this is with e85?
It's still a new product. For now I'd just install it, run map1, and mix in 2-3 gallons of E85. As we get more of them out there we'll provide higher power map suggestions.

Looking to get JB4 for my 2018 Alfa Romeo Stelvio Ti, any numbers yet? Also does this Giulia intake fit the Stevlio? When will it be available?
Stelvio and Giulia should be identical in Jb4 and Intake system. Jb4 is ready now, Intake system will be out in a month.
If you can upload a picture of your engine bay that would be the best. You can also check our install guide!

Not yet, unfortunately, my car is being fixed in a body shop for some minor damage but I will install it and attempt to make a custom map for it on map 6, with a ******** too that is currently being fabricated for me.

I have a question. I have already fitted an EC V2 intake system on my Giulia. Does this pose any issues with adding the JB4 tune with that already in place? Would I still get a 30whp power increase? Does the JB4 map 1 change the max RPM?

Not at all, the intake would only help you get more gains! Jb4 does not change max RPM.

Any update on how this tune is working and/or numbers?
Also is the intake getting released this month, next month?
We should have some dyno numbers soon actually. We have lots of positive feedback actually already. Traction is a huge issue for the RWD so we know it's making power
Intake should be released end of month.

Any update when intake for Giulia/Stelvio will be available to order?
We've gotten a few out, waiting for more customer logs and feedback to come in.

Sounds good my man... Looking forward to some positive news.
If you need another guinea pig, pm/ email me...
Still early days, couple reports of a startup throttle code we need to address. The more testers the better. Just engage us via email if any issues come up so we can work with you on the firmware.

If anyone has time to test a JB4 firmware update email me, I have an idea that may get CANbus working.
