you're using a tailpipe sniffer/sensor for your A/F on a (dual) cat equipped car ? If you're going to be doing any tuning you need to get your readings pre-emissions systems.
and dynojet's ? it's a step up from mustangs & fine for WOT measurements, but you really should look at a dynopak if you're looking to do any remapping across the whole range. I know they're a lot more expensive, but the ability to consistently hit (& hold) all your target points is worth it. WOT is for quarter mile runs not street or track driven cars. We ended up getting a lot more power & far fewer track/engine failures after making the switch. I know the Mini market may not justify the expense/investment, but if you're also tuning for BMW's, it's the only way to get really competitive.

It's OK, I know what he means. He's looking for a race team style tuner. In that world where you're optimizing the map for a specific car, using a full load dyno is a benefit. Although tuning that way takes a long time and is rather expensive.

Is this thing just a map clamp or what? How does it work?
Thanks,
Josh
Also, did the cars seeing the weird o2 sensor dips get the update to correct the o2 sensor range? I had it done on my car and the power up top feels much smoother. It could be this, as the "recall" was an improper voltage range on the front o2 if I'm not mistaken.

Sorry, missed this post! The JB isn't a map clamp, but like the other piggybacks operates in a similar way. It intercepts and alters sensor signals to trick the ECU in to different tuning. For example on the 335i application we intercept/alter the tmap sensor, left wideband sensor, and right wideband sensor.
I'm not sure which sensors we'll need to intercept in the MCS yet.

Terry,
I wouldn't mind the drive, but unfortunately I work in Brea M-F and that's about 65 miles one way. About the earliest I get out of there would be by 4pm, at that time of the day it would take about 2 hours to drive up there in traffic. :( I might be able to get out around 3pm on a Friday, could probably make it up there by 4:30, if that would work. Anywhere else open on a Saturday?
