Your info could help mtuning3 out i think as he hasnt found a solution for his probs yet so he will be in the same boat as you. Fortunately for us in the UK we have a few tuners who can custom remap these cars and the tuner im going with has already done a big turbo remap on an r56
Personally i wouldnt have went the big turbo route unless i was 110% that i had a custom tune available so i hope it works out for you guys Let us know how you get on!
In Denmark we do not have that many Mini Coopers or Peugeot 207 GT or RC because of the big taxes we have on cars (180%). Therefor there I'm the first in Denmark who is replacing the original turbo with a bigger one. I have not meet another Dane who has started a project like this.
My tuner is a whery good tuner in Denmark but he has not been working on a car like mine because I'm the pioneer on a cars like mine. I'm sure that my tuner can fix my car.
The reason why my car is'nt ready yet is that I have ordered new and stronger connecting rods from Pauter, just to be sure. When my tuner has the time to switch the connecting rods my car will be ready and running like a rocket
You are refering to a scan tool in this input. Is it like the software Vagcom for Vagcars???
Can you teel me more about it???

Only way to overcome this is a custom remap.
Being that you are in EU you shoudnt have a problem getting your car mapped but mtuning3's is US spec so is more difficult to tune.
Different user name but same picture and location. I smell something fishy. The car that we have all been following on this thread hoping for some data sheets but being sold with a different name.
I guess nobody as any insight on this not even the sell/owner of the car.....
Yea, from day 1....trying to get info out of the guy was like pullin teeth.

Yeah I read through this thread whenever I need a laugh at work. He even started a thread about Jan form RMW coming to Stamford CT when Jan was going to be in TX. He is also starting new threads and posting about the Alta turbo kit with the new name that he is trying to sell the car/turbo set up with.
yes its my car and its tuned with the unichip,im going to back to vw ,so im selling the car with the full set up or im thinking selling the parts and sell it back to stock

So than what is with two different names and not keeping this thread up to date with your progress on the tuning of the car. Also if it's fully done home come no dyno charts?
i used to have r53 coopers and had a usename,and just did another one i forgot that i had a user name,anyway i forgot the dyno sheet at the dyno,i was going to get it but when i got there 2 days later they couldnt find it anymore and they didnt save it in the pc.....but i tell you the car is freaking fast,the price im selling that car for is a steal with all the money i put inside
