whats jb4's default map?

I'm about to install my jb4 but don't have a cable or laptop with me yet.

if i installed it right now, would it be map 0 or map 1?

and for manual trannys i heard you can just switch back and forth since we don't have shift light indicator?

When I installed mine it was on map 1. I would just double check to make sure by just switching back and forth though.

I am not sure, since I had help and that person updated it for me :P. I'll see if I can find out since I just got the JB4 logger for my phone.

But I'm only using Map 1, since the other maps are not compatible yet.

Holy shit. Just installed jb4 and what a big difference! I wasn't too impressed with the power stock but this definitely opened it up. It's a totally different car! I wish it was like this stock hehehe.

Another thing I noticed that got me a little concerned was the idle and noise. It might be the ecu trying to readjust but the car shakes a little bit. Might be just me but the engine rattle or tick seems a little louder. Don't think I heard it before. Could those with jb4 chime in on idle engine noise?

Is it the shake upon startup? Or when does it happen?

I've been in two M235s with the JB4 and both have the slight vibration on start up so I knew what you were talking about. I don't think its from the JB4 since I noticed it in stock form as well.
