D-Man, if you set it up, we will come over and take care of you guys downunder

 

Just wanted it to be clear that I had an RMW dyno tune in Dallas last year, and was very happy with it--Jan was able to smooth the power curve on my car and it was a much improved drive as a result.
Installing the cam and the straight exhaust were significant enough mods that a new tune was in order. The Mynes opportunity was just too good to be true, and I'm very glad to have done it. The car has more power, and pulls very hard now.
Overall, my experience with dyno tunes has been very positive. I can highly recommend them. Both Jan, and Mike's Mynes team were very professional and it was great to have my car worked on by these people.
The Mini world is made all that much better by having more choices, especially in these tough economic times when choices are going out of business every day...

 

Hey Phil, do you only go to tunes with heart breaker dynos? The Dynapac in Dallas at the RMW tune was estimated at 15% on the low side, and it seems like this one maybe even more like 17% off (just an educated guess). I am sure Mike has a better guesstimate.

Anyway, does anybody ever calibrate these things? It would seem like it should be a Preventative Maintenance SOP.

For the MINI owner though, the delta is all that matters, and you guys sure pulled some impressive improvements. Congrats!

 

I thought Dynapacs are consistent

 

Has anyone received thier graphs from Rich yet? I emailed but no response as of yet.

 

Just got off the phone with Rich, he's going to have someone there email me all the results. As soon as i have them, i will forward them to you guys.

mike

 

Good cause I didn't have the chance to call him today.

 

thanks Mike

 

Aah, how long do we have to wait to get these?
I don't have Rich's email, but maybe if you send it to me, I'll bug him again...

 

I just got off the phone with him this morning, he said he's out of town and won't be back until Thursday :( I asked if he can have one of his guys over there get it done and email them to me...

 

if he makes us wait any longer tell him he has to let me drive his 600hp rx7

 

I want my graph!!!!!

 

Can we have one in the Houston, San Antonio, Austin or even Dallas, somewhere where people actually live? LOL

 

Um, get enough people together and I am sure they will go anywhere.

 

So I was wondering what else I can do to make my car even faster. After the tune my car is so much faster and now I can give my brother a good fight. He has a 335. That is not enough for me. I would like to be able to kick his ***. Maybe I'm asking for too much.

If I slap a big valve ported head and port the SC would I gain enough to beat him?

 

That is what I am going to do....

I dont know much about the 335. I do know we WONT be dissapointed adding a head to the mix

 

A BVH definitely makes a difference. mdbsat and I have both driven a vehicle so equipped and it is impressive.

 

Dunno but just make sure he doesn't surprise you one day by tuning his car.

 

one word: TURBO

 

Turbo means "mucho dinero"! Can I expect big gains with a BVH and supercharger porting. Does the porting actually give any gains. Will it at least make it more efficient?

 

porting the supercharger isnt going to do you much, but the head will be fantastic.

 

Any word from Rich on the Dyno plots???

 

Make it six! I just put a 6-speed in my R50 and would love to come and meet up with some folks. I don't live far from El Paso, it just depends on when it is cus I'm moving to Corpus in a few weeks

 

Crap, did you guys already have this event? Super bummed!

 

Yeh, but there's no proof we did, as we never got the dyno plots...
bummer.
