The Mystery 📦 Is Revealed!
November 15, 2018 | The Mystery Is Revealed!
Another milestone in Project Mystique’s journey has arrived. Today, she starts a new relationship with the tarmac, a more grounded love affair with her center of gravity and a firmer, tighter handshake with the apex.

For a better side profile comparison, I decided to create a graphic comparison for future reference. The H&R VTFs for the B9 RS5 have an adjustment range of 0.4" to 1.2". I requested my mechanic to adjust the perches for a 1.0" lowering all around. I hope this helps.

Project Mystique's journey to 600HP/600TQ has begun!
First on the power roster is Burger Motorsports’ JB4. A complete piggy-back, 100% plug and play tuning solution.
by T3KN1KA
The BMS JB4 has arrived!
by T3KN1KA
Installation: The BMS JB4 test unit was installed by Audi North Orlando in a matter of 45 minutes. The unit was a simple matter of unplugging and re-plugging up to four connection points (TMAP, MAP, Fuel Pressure, OBDII CANBUS) depending on the individual platform and tuning parameters.
JB4 Mobile: The beauty of the BMS JB4, outside of its tuning capabilities, is its ability to provide real-time data and metrics via the JB4 Mobile App onto a device of your choice inside the cabin (iPhone, Android) through a Bluetooth connection. The app also seamlessly provides the ability for data logging an extensive array of data, for fine tuning.
by T3KN1KA
Initial Impressions: I have been able to test and log runs utilizing the JB4's baseline MAPs (#1 = +2 PSI, #2 = +3 PSI, #3 = +4 PSI). Upon the completed JB4 installation, JB4 Mobile App installation and JB4 firmware update, I first drove the vehicle approximately 20 miles under stock parameters to ensure proper installation and monitor for any errors, CELs and anomalies, to which the JB4 has been flawless. I then immediately selected the MAP#3 option to test and immediately noticed a significant gain in power and throttle response. I provided the logged runs to Burger Motorsport for analysis. BMS then requested for me to test and log MAP#1/2 in order to be able to pattern and monitor for any timing changes. BMS did identify that the ECU "pulled" some timing from MAP#1 to MAP#3. Though MAP#3 is a safe tune, BMS recommended that I test on an E85 mix in order to accommodate for a higher MAP with increased boost.
by T3KN1KA
Upcoming Plans: I will be dyno-ing this week to determine baseline power output and post-JB4 MAP#3 power gains. I will then test with an E85 mixture on MAP#3 and perhaps a higher MAP with increased boost, if deemed safe. I am certain some environmental factors (ambient temperature, humidity, heat soak, etc.) will affect the overall power output and determine our ability to continue further safely. Dyno power metrics will be posted once completed.
Future Goals: All subsequent power upgrades will be tested with dyno metrics and documented to ensure power gains. Project Mystique will be built for performance, power and balance without sacrificing drivablity, efficiency, reliability and without upgrading major components (turbos, engine, transmission). Cheer us on to our ultimate goal of 600HP/600TQ in 2019!

A quick update before bed. Last week, Project Mystique went under more dyno testing at DigiPowerUSA for baseline (stock) and Burger Motorsport JB4 R&D under MAP#3 and MAP#5 on 93 octane. Here are a few photos, videos and official dyno results. The next session will be January 3, 2019, and will test Roc-Euro's intake, a more refined RS5-specific JB4 MAP along with E83. I foresee 500+AWHP/500+AWTQ in the near future. Enjoy!
