Very interesting choice. I am not sure that I would go that route. But let me know how everything turns out. You doing a post build on this?
I'm genuinely curious when I ask this... why?
At a very high level I just want some knobs and switches to select a map, adjust or turn off traction/abs on track and have a cool racecar dash.
have a build thread going here
You know we have a full AIM PDM with display specifically for the MK5 with full integration for a race car setup? Not yet published. PM me if you want some more details. I will be following your thread. Cheers
JB4 you can select a map and turn it off and on. It’s cool @D_A_S is on here and has track applications. I couldn’t imagine our cars being even faster & just as dependable w/ power increase on track! They are insanely fast now.
I already own a Garmin Catalyst and a JB4. I want to get a seat someday w/out dash malfunctions, if possible. Glad y’all are out there racing, testing & on here! Great website. Tons of options for sure.
Huh? That’s possible today. I have no dash lights and neither does anyone else with race seats that coded things out correctly.
You can I did it for a season running race gas all year with a map targeting around 520WHP with a daw turbo, only problem I had was the oem speed limiter starts activating around 155 and limits you to 163
So with a proper map on JB4 that works with mods can be usable on track???
I need to buy it from someone who can do the ? you can do - You’re lucky you live up North. You’d probably already have a restraining order in place against me. I’d be at your house 24/7 trying copy all your upgrades to my car ?
I’m almost positive Jesse can do it. It’s just the multiple logs/pulls you’d have to send and under what conditions to replicate? I don’t want to hit limp mode on track and drive back in w/ fist in the air. Last time I did it, in limp mode, she didn’t want to go over 55 mph and was sluggish as hell. I was running in a red group. You get a good idea how fast everyone is running when you’re a sitting duck like that. Outright dangerous.
That‘s amazing/fantastic ? Who did it for you? Did you have to replicate the track environment logs? Or did you do pulls in a safer place -like street?
I did JB4 for a while (2021) before ecutek. dp and a splash of E. Burger looked at my logs and recommended map4
That’s cool Bob! JB4 did store the codes for me. I’ve tried map4 and I get the same results on track. I know it’s heat related because I was able to stay in map4 for a while in Homestead once when I was freezing my balls off. She finally limped out in the afternoon as it warmed up. I did get my PB however while playing around with it, hahaha…. We rarely have the weather we’re having now ?. So once we get back up to normal (FL) running temps, I’ll definitely have to do some pulls again and send it ?
I so hear ya man! The stock kids are doing just fine. It’s amazing right! I might be opening that wormhole even wider ?

Still there ? Hopefully picking her up tomorrow… this will be the last time I have to go in for anything other than consumables ?
