034 Motorsport VS Jackal Motorsports | Dyno Comparison Test 

Everyone go give this video a like because no one else is taking the time to do these comparisons

Respect to Jackal for paying. Definitely want to see the power curves matched up.

Fantastic!!! Just made the switch to jackal at Christmas and noticed a huge improvement in the car. Matt and the team doing the work

I can’t wait, to fully get into tuning my C7 A6 I had just finally slapped a stage 1 034 tune 2 weeks ago for my official last drive from RI to permanently reside in SC. The car shifts and power for the 16 hour drive down. with no mods is even amazing. Thank you for all the DIY videos I will need soon and tuning comparisons. Can’t wait to see you and your car at club Carolinas.

Great video cam. Wanted to start by saying your videos have been very helpful to me with 2 3.0T cars. I don’t think switching between these tunes is worth it unless you are really serious about power. My car is a daily driver and I’m very happy with 034. Thx for the videos.

Great video as always Cam!

For me me is the money wise jackal is $800 for ecu and tcu tune for all stages and change anytime that’s unbeatable

Good run down. I’m wondering the longevity of the cars on jackal as they are forcing more power. 034 has been around for so long and seems like all cars tuned by them are doing well. We will see in the near future how the jackal tunes affect the motor.

Happy new years buddy. I love your videos, always very informative. I’ve recently done a lot of work on my a6 and I’ve come to your videos every time. Doing a great job. 👍

Awesome video. I was just reading some forums the other day and somebody said they went from 034 to Jackal and they were also faster by similar times. Thanks for this comparison.

Was thinking of going jackal for my b8 s4 and everything in this video from matt paying for the dyno runs to the improved performance puts it at the top

Nice comparison video! It would be interesting to see IE vs. Jackal - Dyno Comparisons numbers....

Jackal is king! 👑

Great video, Cam. Thanks for doing this comparison, much respect!

Let’s go! Great content

Great and informative video. I'm looking forward to seeing the power band charts for both tunes and I can't wait to see the new Merc Racing supercharger on this engine. It's gonna look beautiful.

Great video, thanks for always providing such good content for our car.

Got a Jackal stage 1 in my 4L Q7 and its night and day difference.

@audiC7Owners Thanks for doing this brother!! I always love seeing these comparison videos! I love seeing data and would love to see the logs from these runs and see how the timing and fueling looked

Great video as usual! keep up the great work bud!

Great video. Makes we consider one of these cars as a sleeper since gt mustangs are not very stealthy...especially when they have s/c whine.

so basically the dyno numbers were close enough and within the margin of error, where it didn't make an appreciable difference in the real world aka down the quarter mile. for your 11.59 u 60 footed a smidge better which would explain the lower ET great comparison tho for sure!

Thanks a lot for this comparison:) i wonder if jackal has a flawless tune right now working for A6 c7.5 community as i know right now there is still an issue with 034's. Something to due with power loss in 3rd gear. Sucks big time when trying to log and run times.. torque just flat lines... Its a shame because its been since 2022 ive seen this issue on forums

Damn good video but you do know 034 going to flame this on Monday live 😂😂😂😂 they hate to be second on anything lol but nevertheless good work

Great comparison, thanks man!

next video please do this comparison between: Jackal vs IE vs 034. I currently have IE stage 2 single pulley and TCU with Mercracing heat exchanger but I feel like it should be a bit faster. Thank you

But What’d Briar Do?

Does anyone know if Jackal or IE support a CARB-friendly Stage1 file like 034 does? For me this is a huge selling point

I was hoping more power after all those mods🤔 I have no mods and only tuned ecu and tcu and tuner said that it has 440hp/540nm at crank +-2%. I would like to dyno it... thank you for these videos👍

Wondering what IE results would have been. Any plan's for that in the future?

Love this video format, would love to see APR’s tune since it’s the one I’m looking at

Woof woof thumbs up everyone

Interesting that 034 advertises 438hp on stage 1 + 93 octane for the A6 C7. Thanks for the informative video!

Thanks for doing this!

looking to tune with 034, was wondering what kind of boost you are making?

Just want to say thank you!

Jackal 💪🏽💪🏽🙌🏽

I would really like to see where APR fits in here as far as numbers on their stage 2+ tune

I know you plan on doing IE later on but does anyone in the comments have any personal experience between IE and these? I currently have IE stage 1 ECU & TCU tunes.

Good video just think you should take the average of the 3 runs and go by that vs the peak of the best runs that shows more consistency Imo

Awesome comparison vid! Any comments on the TCU tune difference? If you got a chance to drive the Jackal ECU/TCU after that is...

Awesome video man!! Quick question. Were you on a stage 2 file because of your 205mm crank pulley?

But back to the video. Jackal is reducing the Tq for more Top end. When 034 does more Tq then top end. Okay. So line it up. Let see who finishes first. The one that takes off the fastest or the one who gain speed as it runs

Mods you forgot to mention: Eurocode transmission and diff mount inserts, JXB driveshaft carrier. Possibly make a negligible difference in performance but noteworthy 😇

Muchas gracias por esta comparación, Podrias comparar jackal vs IE ?

Hi my friend… can you help with my Audi A7 2016, my voice command has stopped working I can hear clearly through speakers, but no one can hear me??.. also coasting when in Emode doesn’t glide, transmission not switching to just E on the dash and engine idle off throttle down hill coasting.. any help would be appreciated Thanks

I’m here baby!

if you look at the drag times it looks like apr had the higher top speed

Jackal for the win 🏆

Do you ever plan on doing stage 2 so we can see that as well?

Great content...as usual.

Does jackal have a discount for switching cause I was thinking about switching before I go for a stage 2 tune

That pump E85 could be anything from E85 to E70 in the winter, that WILL change IAT's and combustion temps, let alone 93 based knock resistance, so this isn't a solid 93 file comparison. 2gl of let's say E80 into a full tank of the avg E content of 4-6% in the US gets you. So, if 20gal tank and 93 is 5% E content and you add 2gal of E85..you are roughly E13...which is drastically diff than just 93 on a dyno, you are seeing gains and improvements for output but also, afr changes with more E content. Cool video, cool data, but, 93 vs 93 would be the best comparison instead of mixing in unknown variables.

You didnt mention the other jackal pulls which were actually equal to 034. Id like to know what the afr and timing looks like. For both. This will give off reliability for the engine. Im not tuned by either. I see you even have a IE poster in the back and wouldve been nice to see IE compared to those 2 as well. Those pulls looked like it coughing up a lot of smoke at random times too. Doesnt look good to me. Possibly too much timing and that e85 mix is saving it. 🤷🏽‍♂️ also having e85 is affecting how those tunes would perform instead of it was just 93.

Can E85 be used on a completely stock C7 even if a gallon or two? If so, any cons? Pros? Thanks in advance. Cheers

Great video

Great comparison!

Why was the car smoking so much on Jackal tune at 8:33 than on 034Motorsport at 6:30?

I live in AZ. In the city. So this upcoming Monday we r expecting 110 degrees. For my heat exchanger. Is 034 good or is merc better? I’m new to the German world. Got a B8.5 S5 coupe. 1 1/2 year ownership. Please help.

do you think us with CREC motors will make more power easier?

are the files plain text? any chance to run a diff against them to see the differences?

Jackal turned down the knock sensor sensitivity. Easy! Knock sensors need to be calibrated for different hp levels. The frequency range of the new hp levels has to be corrected. If not touched, the engine won't detect knock and implement the safeties built into the tune. Both runs sounded like they were knocking all the way up to my ears. Additionally, adding e85 on jackals tune gave it more knock resistance than 034’s tune. The 11.65 (jackal) and 11.69 (034) draggy runs can be easily attributed to the fact that the DA was slightly lower on the jackal run then on the 034’s run. We’re talking about .04 seconds in the 1/4 mile. The result here is so negligible that it can simply count up to human error to recreate an exact perfect run or even the difference -200 da. Im not here to defend 034 or Jackal, but if we’re going to do comparisons.. NOTHING can change. The parameters have to remain the same. Especially things like adding e85 to increase knock resistance on 93 octane. Should’ve tested E40 vs E40 instead on the dyno and draggy! (I understand it’s winter and I hope you get the chance to do that in the spring.)

Hai, I installed a 207 mm wheel, can I drive 100 km to adjust the engine and gearbox, or do I have to take the car on a tow truck?

Very interesting indeed, I’m wondering how a fully stock car(stock pcv,, etc) 14:55 would perform, if that much difference at all😏

Great vid!

Do you have the SAE number comparisons?

Definitely some good numbers from both. My A7 came with an APR stage 1 tune. How would you say APR compares to both of these?

i did some research i found out that jackal had been tuning for many many years

What Briar do?! …love that added touch

where did you get that blacked out grill from I have an a6 and want to black it out but I do not want the honey comb rs grill

Jackal stage 1 crank power in hp?

Does the jackal setup come with ECU & TCU in the same bundle? I see for my Crec 3.0t they have stage 1 for $850 does that include Tcu as well as Ecu ?

With 160k+ miles have you ever touched your timing chain? And if not does it have the rattle upon start less then 3 seconds

great video thanks for the outlook

Would you recommend purchasing a 034 tcu tune along with the ecu tune or is it unnecessary for just a stage 1 tune…for now😈?

250 dollars😮 in UK it's around 40 dollars for dyno pulls

Awesome stuff

What about the IE tune compared to 304 and Jackal

I may have missed it. Stage 1 for both or stage 2+?

Was watching 034 live today Javid was not having it he said meet em at the track

Would these numbers be similar if it was a s4

I swooped up a spare c7 A6 3.0t just to set 1/4 track records this year .... See you out there!

states cact temps in C* but ambient air in F* lol..... id also think that o34 being a bigger brand has slightly more safety measures vs jackal wanting all the 'sauce" just goes all out? either way good times.

Sorry to be of subject but my 8y rs3 runs 1.80 60ft 7.36 on 1/8mil@95mph with a little spin? It's was done on a no prep street road event using south Coast raceways tree and timing. I wish I could run you 60ft times wow why are they so low and your 1/8mil is in 7.4s?

I got IE :D

Just curious, will you still be releasing the separate videos on 034 tune & Jackals or you can’t after the engine mishap. In the market for a tune and love watching your videos so would love to see a more in depth but if you can’t, I totally understand

Nice smoke show at the end of the pull with jackal software

Can we get a b9 test

Some horses got escaped.? How.?

Now do IE!

geez that's a lot of smoke lmao

Since we know you most likely get deep discounts for promoting their products. I know you can’t say it. However with these results it looks like Jackal and 034 and IE are pretty similar and not that huge of a difference? A tenth of a second like many claimed I’m not sure would qualify that Jackal is “the best”, as you disclaimed, “your car” it was negligible. In this case I suppose stick with the tuners that work for your setup and car. Personally I don’t want a tune that’s shifting past redline at 7200 rpm’s. However I also digress. I’m not running drag strips and trying to beat out other classes and cars. So kudos to everyone that does. I think what we learned is that all these tuners are great. We also know all these cars can be slightly different. If you go with 034, Jackal, or IE or even APR you’re in good hands. I think it’s time we base it on just personal preference. Let’s get the IE TCU and put it against the other two as well. Let’s also compare their E tunes also. If we want to be detailed let’s include the fine details. Good luck to everyone and each of those dyno pulls sounded great.

Jackalmotorsports!🤘🏽🦾have it on my b7RS4.
