Burger Tuning JB4 for Kia Stinger!

No but our magnetic socket helps you not trash the new plugs dropping them back in. And when you get the combo with the plugs and the gaping tool, it's basically free. :)

Indeed. Now, only my combination of extensions and swivels had been as good at holding together. SO much fun extracting the spark plug socket...three times. ;)
 
If I unplug the OBD II port will that turn off the JB4?

Why would you want to turn it off? Just set it to MAP 0 and that is the stock map.

Nope, OBD II is just used for diagnostic and logging features. The unit itself is still operating and can be accessed via the bluetooth dongle or PC cable.

I thought the OBD II is what CANbus uses to communicate with the ECU? Doesn't the tune use data from it to adjust certain performance characteristics?

Negative. It uses the signals from the engine sensors to which the harness is plugged into to adjust the parameters.
 
I believe the canbus connection is how the JB4 benefits from its dynamic feature that make it perform and standout from the other piggybacks, when disconnected it will still work and make power but not as much as when it is connected.
 
Yes without CANbus it's reduced to RaceChip like performance levels. :)

I completely agree with this. I recently felt that my car was sluggish and when I opened the JB4 app I noticed that the car was set to MAP 2 but it wasn't receiving any signal from the ODBII connection. I re-seated the cable and went out for a couple more runs and everything was back to normal and feeling quick again. There is a noticeable difference when the cable is plugged in and when it's not.
 
I have an Intake and JB4 on Map 1 using 93 Octane on my 2.0t, yet my 0-60 times are in the 6-second ranges. Am I doing something wrong?

I think the stock 0-60 on the 2.0 is mid 6's around 6.6 is what I saw from MotorTrend. On MAP1 I would expect you to still be in the 6's so sounds about right to me.
 
Is there something wrong if the gear gauge doesn’t show the gear your in?

Nope that just isn't working in the app at the moment. Not sure if in the future Terry has plans to make it work or not.
 
Some day, for now it's road speed only. :)
 
Under what conditions does the JB4 kick in? Does Map 6 make the JB4 active all the time since we can attempt to influence boost by rpm?

Power gains are mapped primarily on gas pedal input. You press the gas down, then make more power than stock. :)

Just wondering if map 6 can help make the power more linear.

Relative to gas pedal input? There is a FutureUseD bit7 setting for a more linear pedal input if you are one of the few who prefer that.

Couldn't you easily determine which gear by comparing RPM and speed? At least until you uncover the PID in the canbus. I feel sometimes when you are in 2nd going slow and accererate while having boost reduction set in 1st you can feel the lack of power.

If we can't find a better way to log it then yes we'll need to calculate it.
