Install of the JB1 was easy APART from removing the bottom tray and getting to that plug. Install prob takes 30mins in reality, maybe more on your first install if you are anal about making sure everything looks perfect and securing any loose bits with strategic zip ties. I then drove it on stock map +4.8psi coming on HARD between 2500 and 3000rpm. It is just too much torque for the FWD setup, there would have been over 400Nm in that sweet spot. It makes the car just too much mid-range and not enough top end. So now I use the custom curve and have a little bit of boost down low, coming in more progressively then filling in the region from 4000 to 5000 so it extends the torque curve a little higher and also fattens it up a bit. I took the JB1 off for service and the thing felt SO MUCH SLOWER !!

So it is definitely worth it but I would lower the boost from what the JB1 comes with standard. It is kind of fun using the mid-range torque when merging or on the highway. Nobody expect a station wagon to pull so hard onto highways or into gaps.

I'm partway through configuring map 6 at the moment, but the struggle is getting the 4th gear pulls to send to George for his input and fine tuning

So I called in there today - not what I was expecting!! A prefab building on blocks behind Mazda with some signage on a chain wire fence (apparantly they have a workshop with a dyno too)
Inside was full of new & used parts for all sorts of euro cars - spoke to the tuner guy who is going to get back to me with options on down pipes & intakes etc
They have a few tuning options but have a special on revo this month $1124 with a dyno run - normally $1495 + 395 dyno
stage 2 tune is an additional $395 much like APR (but they offer a free tune if you fit their down pipe - well over 2k)

Euro Tune on the Gold Coast APR Stage one $1795.00, Stage two $395.00

V A Garage on the Gold Coast offered Blue fin @ $1250 + $120 upgrade to stage 2

Yet to call in & see VA Garage in Cleveland - another member here rated them highly & they seem pretty well priced
Also want to check Bayside Performance as they do a heap of vag cars & possibly Harding Performance in Coorparoo (they just did a car in Motor Mag Tuner shoot out)

Looks like I will need to investigate the air box further as most of the stage tunes even in stage one will max out the flow rate of 300bhp

Phoned Euro Car Upgrades for a price for a Revo tune stage 1 for my VW Tiguan highline 162, $1795!!!!

hey all, got a power run just to check things over with the JB4 custom map06 a few weeks ago. Here's the results (stock vs map06) pretty stoked, its an animal now. The midrange torque is awesome, hence the need for an uprated clutch lol.
