JB4 issue

Patel511 · 04-24-2013, 08:44 PM

I recently installed the jb4 a couple weeks ago. Everything has been fine until now, when I turn the car on its set to map 1 and gauge hacking is active, but when I drive the car it usually doesn't feel any different than stock so I set it back to map 0 and restart the car, then I'll switch to map 1 and it begins to feel like the way it should. Does anybody know what can cause this?

Wait for warm up..... Maybe

okay that could be it because I can't usually see the temp as I have it as the boost gauge.

yup as I said, less then 160 means stock boost. if you're not already using it, enable warm up flash

^Oh okay I didn't know they had that feature in there. I bought this JB4 second hand from a fellow member, so I don't know exactly what version/flash is being currently run, plus I'm using a mac with parallels so I could use the JB4 software and parallels runs too slow... I might have to pick up a cheap basic PC.

You can run a Windows emulator on Macs and open the Jb4 pdf file that's on the site.
