    B7 S4 Tune Jackal or JHMotorsports?

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    I have been trying to solve my P0491 & P0492 SAI issue and it just seems easier to get the SAI system tuned out. I would like any additional power that a tune would provide as well. It looks like JHmotorsports and Jackal both offer tunes for the cars and they both seem to be great shops. Does anyone recommend one over the other? My car is a 08 S4 Cabriolet. I have had the motor pulled and rebuilt by AMTuned so all the timing chain and valve issues are resolved. The motor runs great and no longer burns any oil. I did all repairs that I could while the engine was out replacing the clutch with RS4 and replacing AC compressor ect. The only real modification I have is gutted the precats. Any advice on which tune and any other required mods to do at the same time would be appreciated. Also if anyone has any discount codes for either vendor that would be great.

    I personally recommend Jackal.

    I can't speak for JHM.

    Thanks for the quick reply. Just waiting to hear back from them both to make sure they can code out the SAI.

    Both offer that delete

    Along with some other things not needed.

    Motor mount plug delete, if your aftermarket motor mounts installed.
    And one other not needed item
    Rear o2
