Thanks for the HANS suggestion. I checked it out. They make it sound like you need a buddy to get properly set up in the car. Is that always needed, or just when you make your initial adjustments?
Yea makes sense. I've driven some JB4 N54 cars (135i) coupled with a Stock 1M and I would say both surge boost pretty bad. Could have been the owners map setting

Just initial setup - you need someone to be wearing the helmet and helps to have someone else adjust the tethers to limit proper head movement. Throwing on the HANS and clipping to the helmet is a one person thing.

Recommend trying to find a race shop to try on in person. Sizing chart per Simpson I wear a Medium/Large, in person the straps are such I wear a small. The backbrace/mold is the same size throughout FWIW, only thing that is different is strap adjustment and length
