  1. Spoke to Admiral last night to change my insurance with the JB1 box on. They asked what sort of power gains does it provide in % up to 10% is an extra £40 a year Up to 20% is an extra £200 per year! Do I go with the figures quoted on Burger's website of 370bhp and say 20%? Or to get it cheaper say up to 10%?
  2. I had mine wrapped at the weekend, 60 quid for the pair. Easily removable too
  3. You need to download the JB4 app from the respective app store then buy an OTG cable to connect it up
  4. Chances are if you have the reverse camera then you'll be able to get App Connect. Apparently if you spec this option you're given the 'newer' head unit
  5. I've heard that some OTG connectors aren't suitable. I would use the laptop if I was you to make sure it's working then try with a different OTG connector afterwards Does it show as connected?
  6. I did it saturday morning, bit of a thinking outside the box job in all honesty. I ddin't feel comfortable having the car right above my head with the jack holding it up so made like a ramp with patio flags on the right hand wheel which worked well and parked it up there so I could get underneath. Probably took me about an hour, but not because it was tricky but because I followed the instructions to the letter. It's a case of letting the car cool down and the ECU to switch off (5-10 minutes), taking the engine cover off, plugging in 3 plugs there. The trickiest bit was the plug underneath but when you know what you're looking for it's a doddle. Connected it up to my mac with the JB4 software and then changed the boost pressure to 5.0 on Map 1. Started the car up and away we go.
  7. I'ts mental mate, you'll love it. One word of advice, it does put extra strain on the engine to I'd perhaps fit it, set it to map 0 (stock) and run it in for a couple of hundred miles before you smash it round. I'd hit my 1000 on Saturday morning so felt safe installing it
  8. Had this delivered on Friday from The Performance centre in Sunderland with the data cable. Fitted Friday morning with relative ease and set to Map 1 running 5.0 boost All I can say is Oh My God. If you haven't got one of these then you're seriously missing out, it transforms the car If anyone has any questions just let me know and I'd be happy to help, fitting etc.
  9. It won't work if you don't have the App connect option in the menu. No explanation Simples
  10. Saturday morning on a dual carriageway, 65 plate M5, neck and neck up to about 70 then it was like an explosion and he disappeared verrrry quickly. He must have done 140 at peak, I wasn't losing my license over it! Lovely sound
  11. Morning All, so my JB1 is on order, hopefully it should be here this week. My question is for a car running stock, what are the best settings for optimum acceleration. I've read online Map 1 set to 5.2 should be doable running Shell V Power which I think is rated at 99RON. Would Map 6 be preferred if there are any modifications (which there aren't). Any help greatly appreciated, can't wait to get it on now!
  12. Car was stock so I could only get the sound system retrofitted
