3.3TT First log check!

I ordered the 450 Wheel Horsepower KIA Stinger kit on Burgertuning.com and I have everything installed (I think) correctly. Just wanting someone to look at my latest 0-60 launch log to see if everything looks good.
I am using map2 with 93 octane on my 2018 GT2 AWD.
Thanks!

Looks good to me!

Hi Josiebro,
I just got my Stinger last week and considering the BMS 450 kit also but probably be June until I actually pull the trigger. I'm still researching what to get, (Velossa Big Mouth, JB4, intakes, etc) from which tuner, (AP, AEM, BSM, etc) and in what combination (mix and match or the BSM package). BSM is high on the list due to being a package that I assume was tested and developed together. Would you mind posting updates going forward about your experience with the BSM package? Thank you

Hello! I installed the whole kit almost two weeks ago. They included absolutely everything you need to install it. Although I found using a universal joint helpful when replacing the spark plugs. I have never done any work on a car before but they had videos and tutorials for it all. It was pretty much plug and play. I daily drive mine now on map2 with 93 octane and have had no issues. The car is just as nice to drive as it was when it was stock but now it’s much quicker whenever I want it to be. I will post updates if I run into anything. Let me know if you have any more questions about it/the install/the app etc!

Awesome. I'm not much of a mechanic either so that's good to hear.

Hey Terry, Have you noticed that the JB4 doesn't seem to "Activate" unless you put the pedal to the floor briefly once or twice? Or is this just me missing something? It's almost as if the car really wants to make sure I want that much boost before it gives it to me.

 

[Terry@BMS]

The JB4 is tied to pedal input and is always active. Maybe you're just feeling normal turbo lag?

I don't think so but I've not experimented that much. I will log it soon and see what you think. Thanks Terry.

@Josiebro Any updates? I too also just purchased the JB4 kit so i'm pretty excited.

Also curious to hear if your pedal input issue turned out to be anything or if you've had any other issues?

Truly does sound like turbo lag from what he described, which is normal in turbo cars.
