[I've read a lot of different opinions on some modules but have read very little on this Burger module. Does anyone here have one of these and if so I'd like to know your thoughts on this particular one? I'm also worried about installing this thing as I don't want to void my factory warranty. I have been told both, it will and will not show up on a engine scan even if removed before service.
Any info would be appreciated...

I don't think you will get any more information than what is contained in the above thread. I ordered a JB4, it arrives today. With regard to voiding your warranty, you have to decide if you want to take the risk or not. The piggyback system is the least obvious modification as it doesn't "change" anything that needs to be put back in place, in other words, once it's removed, it's gone, no flashing necessary so no trail of changes left behind. It does however make your stock vehicle do things that the factory did not intend for it to do so if you were caught, Ford could void your warranty but I just don't think it's likely as the modification isn't staring them in the face.

Give a report on how you like the JB4 when you get it installed!

Install was very easy. One thing I wish they would do is increase the length of the obd2 cable as it’s just long enough and doesn’t allow for me to route it how I wanted. Performance is just as promised in map 1, saw boost at 18psi and noticed a seat of the pants increase in acceleration while WOT onto the highway from an on ramp. No goofy stuff, drives like stock otherwise. I haven’t explored the other maps yet. Also got the Bluetooth add on so I could use their app for on the fly changes to the map and monitoring of available factory data obtained through the obd2 plug. I wish oil temp was available but I guess it will only display what Ford makes available. So far I am happy with it.

Do you have the latest update for the JB4, I heard terry did some adjusting on Map2 for more power, that could be only for the reg F150 though. Was there a noticeable increase from Map 1--2?

I have the latest update, ran it in Map 2 and it is putting out more power than Map 1 but I haven't had much time to drive it WOT, I will report back once I do.
