Emira JB4 Tuning Now Available for I4 & V6 Cars!

i agree. But what I am asking, is why only 44whp difference from base to map2 on this particular run. Burger showed base to map2 being 95whp difference. Watch the video. This figure was achieved from base to map 2 on the same dyno, in the same condition, on the same day. Were they bullshitting and faking it? I don`t think that`s who they are. So I would have thought that if someone strapped their car on the dyno and measured map zero and got (say) 300 whp, then you would expect map 2 to show 395 or there about, wouldn`t you say?
It wouldn't be an exact amount as you quoted, it would be whatever scaled increase relative to the comparable baseline figures and the type of dyno...remember this is wheel figures so might be 95 on one, 80 on another, etc but yes, 40 is different than 95...could be anything, so many variables
 
1.my app only connects when the car is moving (weird) do you see that behavior?

2.arw you able to use the app to clear codes? I can't, using a Bluetooth OBD2 scanner to clear right now but a minor pain unplugging the jb4 OBD2 cable each time
It’s been a while since I have needed to clear a code, but from what I remember it was very tricky to get the car in ignition mode and connect with JB4. I had the GRP downpipe on my car and was getting codes for post cat and pre cat o2 sensors. Post cat was expected. I went back to stock downpipe.
 
The map1 vs. map2 results are interesting from the recent dyno run from @jp129. I can tell you this, I feel a considerable difference between map1 and map2 on 93 octane here in NC with the mods in my signature. Something must be different and could be a combination of the lack of full aftermarket intake, relatively hot ambient conditions, fuel quality, etc. As for myself and from many other reports on here, there should be quite a significant jump from map1 to map2 on 93 fuel.
Easy to validate, just hop on a dyno and collect data. Map 0 through Map 2 and what will be will be.

Based on what's posted so far, independent dyno testing has shown a max net gain of ~60whp and median around ~40whp from everyone else. If anyone else has dyno'ed a net gain that's more (aside from JB4 test car), we'd all love to hear the conditions it was set in and learn from it, otherwise it's all perceptional.

Agreed that it's perceptional until proven. I was just making the point that in my own experience and what seems almost ubiquitous across the forum--there is a considerable power gain from map1 to map2 so I just thought it was interesting that yours results didn't follow suit there.

It is simple to validate for sure but not currently not "easy" for me to find time to join in the dyno fun hence why I'm very appreciative of those who are taking the time to do it. In any case, regardless of what the dyno results show across the board, there is definitely a massive felt power improvement from stock to JB4 map2 (at least in my case). The perceived difference for me is night and day in terms of how much this car throws you back in the seat and at the end of the day, that's really what matters the most for the fun factor IMHO.

I agree with you. If you are happy with the differences you felt, then that is a huge win.

I look at the data because perceptions can be shaped and different between people, while data is egonostic. I will acknowledge that the dynos currently posted are NOT the be all end all by any means, but to serve as a data point.

Burger has made a good name for themselves in various markets and, IMO, have developed a very nice product, but I had to objectively verify.

I am seeking those who have been able to acheive more HP on the dyno so that we can all learn from it.

Subjectively, ~40whp gain for an ~$800 piggyback that installs in 30 secs is an exceptional value. I am very happy with the results as it stands, but I will call things as they are and the ~90 is still yet to be seen.

100% agree on all points. I'm interested to see more results as well. Thanks for posting the dyno numbers for us.
