Facelift Anybody running a JB1 on the FL S3

[Josht]

hi guys I'm still awaiting delivery of my S-tronic S3 I've agreed the purchase of a JB1 and sports cat looking to get them on once I've run the car in. just wondering has anybody been running one yet on their FL and if so what its like on and if anybody has any figures ?

Cheers in advance

The diffence in power output with Jb1 for other engine variations 280,290,292,300 is minimal so would expect about the same for the 310hp engine as well...

Great choice of car and tune and sure you'll get lots of fun!

I finally had a power run carried out on the S3 Last week with the standard and with JB1 on at EFI in Runcorn it pulled 355bhp Peak and 370ft-lb peak torque ! Over the moon with the results its only running and intake pipe and a vwr panel filter.

Good results!

But my tuning company claim that they could Stage 1 map my FL S3 to 370hp+, they use Revo maps and have the ability to customise them properly.... they build and set up high performance Japanese motors, like we are taking 800/900hp cars... so maybe that's why.

355 is pretty good. I have a dtuk box (pre FL box on a FL car) on mine I would guess around the same power. 350-360. deffo makes a difference. Will be mapped soon.

Nice!

Default map 1 +4.8?

Do you have inlet hose (from airbox) or inlet elbow (to actual turbo)?

What dyno brand was used?

i would have prefered a map but the car is a lease so i wanted fully removable tune

my pre-facelift is going on the rollers on the 29th december, im running jb1 map 1+5.0 with a milltek cat back and a cts turbo inlet elbow, and getting an intake system fitted on the same day! and yesterday i ordered the jb4 from burger motorsports so hopefully that will come before the 29th and i will have that on aswell. will post the results

 

[Salik Sajid]

get the jb4 upgrade kit and u will make another 7-10whp & 10-12lb/ft torque

i got mine direct from burger motorsports website, was just looking through facebook at midnight the other night and some one had said on ther that its out so i was lucky to get one. think the jb4 is instock on the website, but the upgrade kit that i got is still sold out.

Guys does the JB4 etc enable gearbox map as well for auto cars to provide shift point clamping pressure benefits?

No but since Jb4 is a piggyback and the true torque is not reported to the tcu it is not needed at the torque levels achievable with oem/is38/is20 turbo.

(Exception if low on dsg fluid and needing top up...)

It does have boost per gear however (possible to set lower on 1,2,3).

I was lucky and managed to get one this week, and also ordered a BT connect kit with it. So looking forward to playing around, log analyzing and fine tuning...
Best christmas present possible for a tech nerd...

Btw there are dedicated Jb4 threads at golf mk7, gti section, and vwvortex, r section, with lots of information and posts already.

Strongly recommend taking a look if having any interest in the topic...

Be aware though that power figures are at the wheels, US style...

I too have a lease facelift and am a little worried about the dtuk box bringing up codes when you take it to Audi

just ordered JB4 upgrade kit rev1 RHD, hopefully i get it by next week.

Yes tht wat i m worried about as our car is rhd, i ve seen videos of lhd only

Sent from my HTC 10

 

[24styles]

yea ive seen the lhd videos, had a quick look on my car the other day abd i couldnt see the grommitt that they go through behind the battery but i found it on the otherside by the pedals.....but to run the cable through that grommitt on the drivers side is too close to the exhaust for my liking...so im gonna take the battery out and find somewear that side to stick it through but then i get the joy of feeding it along behind the dash

 

[Salik Sajid]

I cudnt find any grommet behind the battery maybe i didnt look properly. It's much easier for LHD as for them it is much closer to obd connector, we have to ziptie the cable wire to the wall to bring it upto pedal but if its really close to turbo or downpipe it's gonna be problem or if we find the hole on the passenger side tht wud be much easier to reach the obd connector.

 

[24styles]

yea i know wot you mean, i might take my battery out tonight and have a look down ther, if not then i guess it will have to run across the other side in the bay. that would be easyiest but just got to keep it clear of turbo and dp...

 

[24styles]

its on i followed the instructions from the website and ran it through into the cab on the drivers side. im on map 2 and it seems faster and alot smoother.
