JB4 obd II CANbus dash control

I'm new to this so I apologize for my ignorance. But is there a firmware that you can use with JB4 Stage 2 (for n20) with OBDII CANbus cable to change maps using the dash (avoiding tapping wires). Thanks.

It is not officially available yet.
You can email terry@burgertuning.com and he will send you a test firmware.

Yes you need the OBD cable and you need to flash the JB4 with new firmware with the USB cable / JB4 software.
