Coming from JB4, can confirm that it doesn't void the warranty. I ran the JB4 for 15k miles on an aggressive map 6 for last bit. Getting a replacement head currently and looking into EQT tune. My main gripe is how unhappy my dsg seemed with the jb4.
Still loving the resonator mod you did on my S3. I’ve been EQT stage 1 and 2 for the last several years on both my GTI and S3 and absolutely love the tunes. I was JB4 on the GTI prior as well. Really want to go vortex XL on the S3
The only downside to going with the Vortex XL is our lack of e85 availability around here. That’s actually my next video in the pipeline, high horsepower longevity & preventative maintenance/mods.
Hey Jake! Awesome video as always. I loved your video about the top 10 mods for the MK7 and it has let me on the path for my dsg gti. I just purchased an EQT TCU/ECU tune and I’m wondering how necessary engine/transmission mounts are at that power level? I do already have a BFI torque arm insert thanks to your recommendation. Appreciate your input.
Not necessary, but it’s a one & done mod that’ll last the life of the car if you add the BFI engine & transmission mounts. The OEM ones are prone to fail at shockingly low mileage, which only gets worse the more power you add. As an added bonus the additional NVH is minimal and gained traction is noticeable.
Hi jake. Dope video bro. I’m sure the jb4 is gonna be super popular with the mk8 crowd till the ecu and stage 1 is solved I don’t frequent the forums anymore but what would be the best way to contact you? Is there an email?
That’s what the video dives into helping you decide based on your budget & goals for the car. Top 10 mods list here ua-cam.com/video/MBbfCvcMLPg/v-deo.html

For sure, it’s only a matter of time until people are running 11.XX second 1/4 mile with Jb4 Mk8R.
