I decided that because the worst of the winter has now passed us, i would fit my JB4 tuning box to my BMW M140i. If you have any questions, please comment below.
Great video, I installed mine today (no Bluetooth only usb data cable) but I couldn’t get my phone to connect, also I couldn’t switch maps via the BC button, but I didn’t have the OBD cable connected, do you know if it has to be connected to be able to switch maps via the BC button ? Thanks
Hi thanks for the vid first of all. But, I have a stock m140i what’s the best map setting to use on the jb4 for max power and reflecting the safety of the car
I don’t think I’m qualified to answer, but Map 3 provides the most boost. You can get somebody to custom tune Map 6 I believe which is probably the best option.
@@Alexiooo The only people who give you a graph with 370bhp for a stock M140i are bullshitting con artists, who have manipulated the figures, which is very easy to do. A video on RU-vid shows how to get over 500bhp with just a remap (bullshit figure, and he shows how con artist tuners con idiots into thinking their car is running mega power). Max BHP for a remapped M140i B58 engine is about 420bhp, it is mechanically impossible to get more REAL bhp on the stock turbo, injectors, exhaust and fuel pump. Mine was dyno'd at a BMW perfomance specialist on an honest dyno, it made 336REAL bhp stock, and 411bhp/576nm after a remap. Some stock cars might be running 340-345 bhp maximum REAL bhp, but not a chance of 370.
@@DjNikGnashers the dyno I used was one of the most trusted dynos near me, and it was my mate who did it. Add that to the fact that 2 other cars had dynos and their came up quoted power. I couldn’t care less about numbers, but that’s just what it is. If you know anything about the B58, you’ll know 370bhp isn’t uncommon.
Alexiooo - mouse has chewed through my tune box wiring loom, and right through the boost sensor. Trying to take the look off by following your install video basically in reverse but can’t seem to disconnect the clips. Used the screwdriver to push the white clip out but can’t seem to separate the two. Bloody nightmare
