    JB1 Burger Tuner with B9 . . . .

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    Hello there,

    I am just curious if anyone can comment on their experience with the JB1 tuner and the B9 engine?
    I'm looking to add just a little more spice to my spirited Sunday drives on the rural winding roads of Middle TN.
    Thanks in advance for any and all comments.

    Regards,
    Chris

    Hi Chris. I am a JB4 Beta Tester for the B9 RS5. This is my first rendezvous with the legendary JB4 but I have nothing but positive remarks for its ease of installation, user friendliness, MAP parameter customization, design and technology. Most importantly, it is by far the best bang:buck power upgrade available. Not to mention, Burger Motorsports is the industry leader in this plug-and-play piggyback technology. We have shown dyno proven gains of +50AWHP and +70AWTQ in the midrange with the 2.9L V6TT. Feel free to DM me with any questions or check out my build thread and the Burger Motorsport Forums (N54Tech) for more details.

    Thanks TEKNIKA for your response.
    I'm not looking for any significant tuning adjustability, just a straight forward plug and go improvement in power/torque.

    Do you think the JB1 would be a good choice for the 2.0 45 TFSI 185kW engine ?

    Regards,
    Chris

    Hi Chris,

    The JB1 unit is the conservative choice for your 45. The advantage of the unit over other piggy backs even though its our base unit is that increase the fail rail pressure to compensate for the extra boost. You can use the unit a as a plug and play but it also allows for some adjustment if you on 93 fuel or higher.
    If you have any further question feel free to email me [email protected] .

    I do have 93 octane readily available here in Midd TN. Is there a manual setting adjustment for higher octane or does the JB1 unit adjust automatically?

    Thanks George!

    The JB4 is very much set it and forget it. Burger Motorsports provides videos for clear and concise installation instructions. The plug-and-play install should only take about an hour. After that, pick a MAP and run with it.

    The ECU does a octane test each time it starts and selects a base timing map so you have gain some power already. With the 93 it also allows for a boost increase that can be done by connecting to the unit either with the data cable we sell that works with free windows software or with a Bluetooth module we have and a sold app supporting Android and IOS.
    You also have the choice to run a high torque map or one with more linear power delivery.
    With the JB1 logs etc are not need as we use tried and tested settings.

    If you an A series, not an S or RS... why not go with a full ECU tune from Revo or APR?

    I'd love too, but car only has 4500 miles on it and it is not practical for me to sacrifice the warranty.
