Thank you. This is exciting. I am currently looking for a plug in tune.

 

And a rather dumb question, but what does that do to our warranty?
Thanks!

 

Not dumb at all. Probably voids powertrain/drivetrain issues when you take it back to dealer with it plugged in. When going in for service, remove the tuning box and dust the engine compartment off.

Just sayin'......

 

I just installed mine yesterday!

I am still taking the car relatively easy so I didn't go full throttle yet but I can tell there is a lot more torque now!

I can't wait till the car is full broken in and dyno

 

Please post your experiences later. Did you get JB 1 or 4? Was the install quick and easy? All of the connections on the top side of the engine compartment?

 

This topic has been discussed multiple times on the golf R forum but you cannot run OBD2 split connector since there will be signal interruption according to George from burger tuning.

If you don't want to lose your other OBD2 connection, then your only option is to run JB1 instead which doesn't tap into the o2 sensor and obd2 for AFR.

With this engine layout, you can install JB1 in 10 mins at most. I ran JB1 in my golf R for few months before upgrading to JB4 and the achievement was great as well!


Car is bone stock with stock exhaust except I threw in the burger tuning turbo muffler delete that I kept from the golf R. The turbo muffler delete doesn't do anything really so you can ignore this.

I am currently accepting donation for my dyno run *just kidding* I will run a dyno once i hit 2000km and a fresh oil change. I am at 1300km at the moment.

The increase in torque is very noticeable

 

Hi I would like to see pictures from the JB4 installation. Do you use the control app?

 

Terrence great! I have had complaints of the mid range tourqe. Coming from the world of highly tuned Saab turbos I expect a turbo to peak ? early.

 

If I am not mistaken, the Jb4 with base map adds 4psi from stock. Just like most modern turbo cars, peak torque is probably early but I will let the dyno to verify it.

I never came across to dyno the golf R since i only had it for few months before I sold it.

 

I wonder if APR's ew turbo inlet is a direct swap?

looking to install this tune, is there a youtube video available on step by step installation?

 

Let see if these pics work.

 

Thanks! Perfect, looking forward to a jb4 98 octane tuning.

 

I believe 98 RON is equivalent to 93/94 in North America so it would be the same map

 

I just got a new map this morning. It seems to be smoother and I haven't put enough km yet.

 

Great that means the final release must be near...??


Can not wait to let this software boost my Macan to 300+ BHP maybe even better since I run 98 Octane fuel. The race exhaust is on the car and KN filter is on the way beginning next week.
I am curious over the capacity of the fuelinjectors how much can they take. When I pumpen up my SAAB 9-3 210 BHP HOT to 280 on a flexprogram for both E85 and 98 gas I had to go up to 640 spec injectors. Can anyone Shek some light on this. Seldon does a manufacturer put to good things in a car if it is not needed.

 

Here in Sweden it is August in 2 hours. Any updates on the launch..... There is a big Porsche Autocross coming up soon would like to show the guys with more cylinders and more weight how a car should be steered.
