Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

[Kaz]

Kaz super curious about the methanol install. Impressions, advice, description etc!

I'll make a dedicated post...should work equally well with V6 or I4 - it's been a journey lol and literally as of this morning I think have the right settings. I am using the JB4 together with the Burger WMI controller/kit...this way I can operate the methanol on a dedicated Map 7, have methanol on ALL maps, or turn it off to run stock. Terry at Burger has been great, send him logs, he suggest changes...and he worked with the shop that works on my car to create the custom maps on their dyno. Again I'll post on another thread pictures of the install and more data stuff. We picked up a ton of power and torque. Once the I4 ECU reflashes start being a thing, you could move to Snow Performance controller and custom tune. But for now very happy, car rips!

True on timing, but, better cooling could allow it to stay in a more aggressive part of the factory tune more consistently. Cooler charge temps cannot hurt.

The water temp on the dash is lying to all of us, sometimes it is cooler than shown, and if it's showing 200 it's probably at 210-215+ and won't show anything above 200 on the dash that until the actual temp is above 220. This is done on purpose. If you are plugged into OBD2 with your JB4 make one of the gauges water temps, all the various OBD2 apps I use all show the same numbers that the JB4 is pulling from and I don't know where this temp sensor actually is but the value will always be much lower than displayed on the dash. And awesome on your IAT's, the actual temps are probably +15-30F after the intercooler at full throttle (you have a V6? it's air to water right?) the stock cars are very efficient with intercooling. On the I4 the transmission cooling I believe is also plumbed into the engine air to water system and it's very efficient, similar +15-30F from ambient post intercooler, and on my car when methanol is active that drops to about +10-15F

It’s so incredible that nothing on the dash is real. The temps are a lie. The tach is hilariously delayed. You have to give them credit, no other brand would ship a useless dash
