JB Stage 1 feels slower in Manual mode than sport or sport+

Supadice · 07-16-2014, 10:30 PM

Installed the JB stage 1 today and everything feels great except in manual mode. In manual mode it doesn't feel as quick or as powerful as in sport and sport +. Is this normal or just me.

Sorry define "Manual Mode"

all configurations "ECO PRO-COMFORT-SPORT-SPORT+" have for automatic transmission manual shift or D-DS automatic shift

When you engage the car in manual mode you will literally see "M" and the number of the gear you are in, When you move the gear lever over into sport mode and then use the gear box or paddle to get into manual mode it will usually read "M1" and go all the way up to 8, etc.
So wait your car feels slower in manual mode? you're not accelerating as fast as you do in just plain sport mode?

BMS Stage 1 and JB Stage 1 is a reference to the same stage 1 tune by BMS. The JB4 is actually stage 3 but the names really seem to be thrown around loosely.

When I was researching the tuners and everyone calling it something different it was very confusing at first.

This is right from BMS website

Note: We sell two systems for the F series N55. The N55 Stage1, and the F30 JB4. There is no such thing as a JB4 Stage1.
