I had the JB4 and still do. I had the rev1 support is very good and the additional bump in power makes the car drive as it should. On map5 I was dyno at 441.6bhp and 517ft lbs of torque.
much better than the DTUK box as people were having lots of problems with them.
I also ran some good 1/4...
I had a look and like some have said Awesome being HQ for APR in the UK are able to unlock the ECU. The price is £1600 in vat and the tune is cheaper in USA not sure why we got to pay a premium and 3000 in Australia is a joke.
Only problem is you need to unlock the ECU then it can be flashed by an APR dealer. I don’t fancy sending my ecu to America.
the results the have aren’t that great IMO and I’m happy to keep my JB4 as people have used the full fat E85 tune and not got much better times on the 1/4 mile 0-60 and...
the only part of stress I can see would be when stationary and holding the brakes it would wear more because it brings up the revs as though you are riding the clutch almost.
What a lot of people in America have said the other restriction is the turbo inlet elbow which is restricting air flow into the turbo. Im currently running a Jb4 piggy back with front mount intercooler. Decat downpipe and panel filter. I also have WMI. I think I’m running around 480bhp got to go...
you don’t have to have Audi do the services to keep warranty. As long as the garage you take it to use genuine parts you are fine. I’ve done all mine outside of Audi. Rip off merchants.
An inspection service is normal oil and filter change. Then inspecting visually all the other stuff like tyres. Plugs. Air filters and scan the car to make sure everything is in working order. Almost like a mini MOT.
Everything wears but as long as you maintain it properly you can’t prevent things from failing sooner. I always let it warm up before going over 2100rpm when boost kicks in.
The low down torque and throttle response is noticeable. Who is the company that would be doing it for you? I know some big companies like Revo offer a 14 day money back if it’s not to your satisfaction at some places.
I would say it is definitely worth it. I have a 2.0tdi A6 177bhp to 210bhp. Fuel didn’t improve by much. The reason for increased fuel efficiency is down to not having to floor it as much to get up to speed and the engine running smoother with less flat spots. Your clutch will be fine as long as...
Not saying that but the rewards aren’t as great. You have to spend a fortune to get the same performance.
diesels are great but once the torque output is so high it will then become terrible when launching it off the line. Be good for B road lorry over taking though.
IMO I see the S4 For the potential It possibly has with a 3.0 turbo engine as a very good start to something specially. I can see why Audi have done it because people buy the S4 tune it to be faster than the rs4 for cheaper than the 20k difference.
I can see a lot of the buyers for the new S4...
I’ve just done an oil change with 5w40 motul sport ester. Done around 1k so far car feels smoother. A Few people with hybrid turbos and stage 2 cars in USA have used the same and rave about it.
