Default JB4 Piggyback tuning on an B9 S5

Has anyone installed or researched the JB tune on a B9 S5?

I just bought a 2019 S5 Sportback and would like to hear from someone familiar with this (JB4 Performance Tuner for Audi S4/S5/SQ5 - BurgerTuning.com).

Thanks!

Active thread in the SQ5 section. People seem to like it. Might be an April B-Day for myself.

Thanks for that info. Since I posted this, I purchased the JB4 and installed it. Still waiting for a few more miles before testing out the maps. Less them 500 miles on her currently. Can't wait!

FYI - No issues with the install, as with other piggy back systems, easy to install.

Like a champ!!

No issues of any kind. I just keep it on #3. I just wish I understood more of what I can do - I am just a street driver, not modder/track guy (though a drag-strip would be nice to play on) .

The only "issue" I ave is lower gas mileage - which is 100% self inflicted!!

I need to learn more about it too. Just wondered if you could really tell the difference.

thanks

Absolutely.... at all ranges, especially at the lower RPMs.

I have no regrets with the purchasing / installing the JB4.

Default Jb4 install

Just received my jb4 as a Christmas gift to myself. Was looking for any tips in installing it in the S5. I've only seen videos for s4 and other vehicles. Was wondering if it's the same. About to dive into the installation now but tips would be great

Just got a B9 S4 and I will probably be getting this unless a proper ECU tune comes out soon.

I have a JB1 installed on my A3 and it was worth every penny. It really adds a lot more punch to the car!

No noticeable drop in MPG though unlike what you are seeing.

How did install go? Do you like performance? Any tips?
