RMW dynotune: 239 hp, 190 ft-lbs tq.

Jan just updated the tune. Results and dyno are posted here. Sorry not in color. Can't figure out my scanner, will do better tomorrow.

Dyno'ed 207 in 83 degree heat. Have since added the 440cc bosch injectors and replaced supercharger with an 06 due to severe rattle. Jan tuned it today on Dyno Pak, where it hooks directly to hubs. The temperature today was favorable - about 70 degrees. I have stock intercooler, and hood was raised, but air was directed down on it, like if I were driving.

I'm very pleased with the result.

The RMW cylinder head is superb in every respect and Jan/RMW has excellent service and support.

MODS: basic 2003 MCS with Alta 15% pulley, RMW cylinder head, OBX header with stock catalytic converter, Cheap Ebay catback (R-Speed type 2), Alta intake, 440cc Bosch injectors, stock intercooler, RMW dynotune, 2005 stock crank pulley

Chassis: Cross coil overs, Alta 22mm rear bar, OMP lower strut support, 16x8 SSR comps (love 'em to death), Falken Azenis 215-45x16.

Shouldn't this be in the 1st Generation folder? The 2nd Generation MINI does not have a supercharger to replace....

Why did you go with 440cc compared to 380's or 400's?

Here you go...




Good numbers. Seems like you have the same little dip I did (To a much lower extent and higher in the RPM band). You're making peak power lower in the RPM band now :-). What were your AF's like between 4200-5,000. I'd say belt slip or heat soak, but it only pulled torque, no HP, that's odd.

If your car is mainly driven on the street pass on the coilovers for now and go with the head, you won't be disappointed .

That is sweet, this is definitely on my to do list for the next year. Have any of you guys done any before & after timing for 0-60 & 1/4 mile? Just curious, would help me understand what kind of real world performance I would get.

I have the header-exhaust -tune. I track the car alot. I could wait on coilovers. The car only has 10,000 miles on it. May wait for for more miles and more warranty use. Plus it goes to sleep from the end of Nov. till April here in Buffalo.
