Haha I had the same reaction. I was pleasantly shocked with the difference. I’m totally content with map 2. Car is paid off but I don’t want to beat it up just yet. When I have cash to buy something else, I’ll consider some more aggressive tunes with wmi.
How is the reliability of these tunes? I currently have an Audi S5 tuned by 034, a highly respected motorsport company. They spend countless hours designing their tunes to ensure they won’t nuke your engine. I’m considering moving to a Kia Stinger for my next vehicle. Are the tuning companies that work on the Stinger with the same level of professionalism?
I have had no issues at all and Burger Tuning has great customer service. They're out of Los Angeles. Keep in mind I run map 2 mostly, not the higher maps but I haven't heard of anyone with any problems. You just want to make sure you upgrade the spark plugs before tuning 👍
@@joshgathings007 thank you. I know the JB tune has these multiple maps but I’m not really sure how they work. As the map # increases are you making more and more power but risking the engine? Or how does that work?
@@Lsthnbrd yes correct, higher the map number, higher the turbo boost- increasing hp and torque , I would recommend purchasing blow off valves to take less pressure off the turbos if you're running map 3+
When I installed the tune I had downpipes and intakes with upgraded spark plugs. Map 2 is a night and day difference in power! Not sure how better my 0-60 was but you can feel a significant amount of increased power. My tires will spin now and I'm AWD
Excited to hear that!! Waiting to fill the car back up from empty. Would you recommend 10 gallons 93 and 4 gallons E85? With that E30 mix, could I safely run Map 4?
Yes that is a good E30 mix. I would say run map3 and look at your logs- if everything is looking good then you can bump to map 4 and feel more safe. Just my two pennies.
@@joshgathings007 so it was one of my gauges on the JB4 before I switched it to boost, AFR etc … but yeah dude I got HKS plugs gapped at .022 and installed them two weeks ago car has less than 2k miles on it. IGN 1 was spiking up to 40-50 on the app and I’m a bit worried lol
Didn't realize there was a map 6 😂 Highest I've run is map 4 but didn't have that great of results in the 1/4 mile. Going to send my logs to bugertuning to see if everything looks good. My last upload you'll see what the car runs on map 1, 4

Had the same reaction after installing JB4 on my 2012 kia optima sx yesterday on map 2. Can only imagine the stinger 👍
Awesome , can't beat the power you get from these programmers
@HiFiFiZzy not from the jb4 or cpi that I've also installed.

Boostane is the best octane booster if you can’t get a hold of good gas
Where do you usually find it?
Map6 hits different
Do you have to turn everything off? Sports mode? Traction control etc?
No, you don't have to do any of that
Plug n play
@@joshgathings007 sweet I was hoping that was the case. Thank for the heads up
Were you stock when you installed the tune? If so how did it improve your 0-60 time on Map 2?
When I installed the tune I had downpipes and intakes with upgraded spark plugs. Map 2 is a night and day difference in power! Not sure how better my 0-60 was but you can feel a significant amount of increased power.

@@joshgathings007are the upgrades you mentioned from Burger Motorsports 450WHP kit? Thanks!
@fuzzyjeffrey1705 it's not but very similar, I bought all my upgrades from k8stingerstore.com
I had a low fuel problem on map 2. Do you have an idea how to solve it?
A low fuel problem? Can you explain a little more? Was this shown on your charts from JB4 logs? I haven't run into this issue myself.
Hi Thank you. The problem has been solved. There was a connection error
I hope you upgraded the spark plugs before doing this, otherwise it might turn out not so pretty
Haa , sure do 👍
I’m guessing these don’t require 91+ from factory with you running 87.
When the car was completely stock I would run 87. Now with the JB4 and leaving it always in Map 2 - I run 93 and sometimes E30 when I run Map 3 or 4.
E30 map 3, you will be shocked, map 2 is very conservative

Ok how much power does your car have stock and how much u think it increased to
Probably 320 stock
Hopefully 400 ish now
@@joshgathings007 I got a 1.6t 201hp Elantra thinking if I should get it seeing if it was worth it
So do you have to turn off the car and restart the app to change to a different MAP?
No, you can change maps with the car on and moving in real time. 👍
@@joshgathings007 Thanks!
I only have 92 in my area. Do you think its safe to run the stage 2 tune?
Yes, I think you should be just fine. You can always run a few logs and send them, email burger tuning and they can let you know.
Did you upgrade the spark plugs to the HKS plugs?
Yesssir
@@joshgathings007 what's your IGN 1 looking like? man mine is going to like 40 or 50 and idk if that's normal

So is an average of 20 mpg normal for map 2?
Usually higher than that. Even around town is 24+ . That's in comfort mode taking it easy. Was on the interstate yesterday for 4 hours averaging 29mpg
Do you have the e85?

Hi,what octane you used?
93
@@joshgathings007 thanks, thats the same here ,in PR. Enjoy it.

87 octane is fine.
If and when your #6 coil fries, you will think you blew your motor, and then be ready for Kia to Void your warranty and refuse to pay for the new coil, due to "Tune" / JB4... Even if removed 1st.
Is that a common issue with the increased boost?
@@joshgathings007 #6 coil going bad is a common issue with Stinger GT V6... Happened 2xs to us. 2nd after JB4 map2. Kia refused repair #2?!
