It makes no sense to me how a backend flash stacked with a JB4 has a positive performance effect (but I know it is true, I have read it + seen it as well, like you are saying)

Timing, fuel, boost. What else is getting changed in backend flash, and what else is getting spoofed by JB4?
A BEF doesn't necessarily increase boost values (this is where the JB4 comes in), but you can run increased load targets, fuel scalars, ignition advanced, VANOS changes, and etc.

The JB4 is more than just a boost controller. For the S55, it can function as a meth controller with various safety triggers, PI controller, integration with E85 content reader, data logger, and more. In essence, think of the JB4 as a highly advanced boost controller unit with a plethora of features. Several high horsepower M3s and M4s have a JB4 installed for a reason.
