Burger Tuning JB4 for Kia Stinger!

How fast did you go in American MPH?

What max boost did you hit?

What are your parameters set for wmi?
He went from 37MPH to 164 MPH

xot1 Which spary nozzle are you using? Did you install and step up to the BM10? I think I saw somewhere that you were running a BM7 nozzle when you first installed it.
 
Top speed 158mph in JB4 log, 164mph in the HUD.
Max boost 19.2 psi around the end.
Default settings except additive which was 80 on this run. FYI I use ethanol instead of meth.

I still use the BM7. I did not find any evidence saying I need more meth yet.

Ethanol? You use E85

I didn't know you could use Ethanol?

You can, but meth will give you slightly more performance.
In my case it is just a personal choice for the peace of mind. ;)
 
Quick tip for anyone that has a JB4.

This morning I was getting the V9 firmware update for the JB4 and as it was updating I realized the car engine was on so I canceled the update as it was updating. I then turned the car off and on again. When I turned it on the check engine light came on and the car seemed like it was stalling and the RPM were going up and down.

Let me tell you something it scared the shit out of me, I started freaking out.

I immediately tried to trouble shoot the problem. I disconnected the JB4 completely and the problem went away, the car was no longer stalling. The check engine light was still on thou. I disconnected the ground on the battery for 10 minutes and then I connected back together. I then installed the JB4 again and tried connecting to the JB4 via the app/Bluetooth and it would not connect. I then went ahead and did the update again and loaded the new firmware V9 and the problem went away.

The problem was that somehow when I went to update the firmware the first time and cancelled it the JB4 had no firmware on it. If the JB4 has no firmware on it it will not run properly. At first I didn't know this so of course I freak out. It was a very easy fix I didn't have to disconnect the battery or the JB4 like I did. All i had to do was update the firmware again. I am sharing my experience in case this happens to someone, don't freak out just update the firmware again. If you get a check engine light disconnected the battery for like 10 minutes and it will get rid of it and it wont come back again.

I was doing this update at like 7:00 am, as soon as it happened before I fixed the issue I emailed Terry. Keep in mind that in California it was 5:00 am. Being a Saturday I never taught Terry would get back to me on the same day. A few hours later Terry emailed me back with some tips to troubleshoot. I already had fixed the problem when he emailed me back. The point is that this kind of customer service is what makes JB4 an amazing product. Terry did not have to answer right away, but he did. As you all know I am not sponsored by BMS, but Terry customer service and support is unreal. The man does not sleep, the man does not take any days off. I don't know how the F#ck he does it lol.

I just wanted to share my experience because it might help others.

TLDR: firmware 9 is available, you should update.

(Aw, I'm just kidding, Angel...good info :thumbup:)
 
Got in production batches of a couple new products today which we should have on our site tomorrow.

Plug play WMI bracket which provides a clean way to mount a 1g tank and pump in the spare tire area.

BMS diff brace which takes a lot of slop out of the rear end improving traction both off the line and around corners.

More info to follow!

^ CANT WAIT FOR THIS ^ We going to get some discounts for the first adopters :) <3
 
Had my technician friend of mine install my jb4 tonight. He just installed flawlessly in another friend of ours stinger 3 days ago.

My car would not start. Couldn't update firmware of even connect.

Upon further inspection we found one of the wires leading to the main harness come out. We pushed it in and the car started and idled fine.

Pull it out. Car dies.

Hopefully it doesn't take too long to get a new harness. And hopefully the jb4 didn't get shorted or something.

Why would you need a new harness? Unless the pin is damaged, looks like you just need to properly install it. Zooming in on the pic it looks like it’s intact, seems like you just need to push it until it’s seated properly (you’ll hear a click).

If that’s the case, I would find a new “technician” friend to do installs.

Where does the bracket mount in the car? Do you have pics of the bracket mounted?
 
I assume spare tire area

I know it will go on the spare tire area lol

I just want to see how it looks mounted. I assume it uses the 2 bolts on the spare side area that the harness/clips is attached too.
