That is a conservative number, I know they like to have the car on the dyno for a tune. (rather than just a canned tune)
I'm waiting for their new dyno to be installed before I get mine done.
There are some people on the boards that are running their tune right now, they may chime in with more.
They do have the ability to emulate the Mini ECU to get a very specific custom tune that I'm not sure if any one else offers at this time

I'm not sure why you're quoting me, but thanks for the info
I'm sure the people who already have a tune will chime in if they choose to do so.

Hydra EMS
Alta is working on getting it to market and Jeff Perrin(Alta) has it working on his Elise right now. I think I saw a pic on here somewhere showing an engine bay with a Hydra unit installed. I'll look for it.
