Anyone use BeHe in MD for a tune???

Since I spoke to Helix today and they do not even have a target date for getting the dyno ready- I thought I would drive down to BeHe to get the mini tuned- Has anyone used them and how were the results??- it is a rather long 4 hr drive so I want to be sure it is worth it- OR does anyone else know of someone in the Tristate area that does tunes- thanks,gary

he tuned my car and ten others at a tuning party in florida. the results were good but not earth-shattering. i'm sure that the results of his tune would be better if not in the context and time constraints of a tuning party. i was happy w/ my results and i believe that he knows his craft.

He did a pulley install and a "bench tune" (no dyno) on my '05 MCS. He said with just a pulley, it wasn't worth my money to do the dyno and get a custom.

I also was happy with the improvement, but 2 yrs later I'm now interested in more mods and a custom tune.

I got a tune yesterday. Was not able to dyno the car since the belt is slipping due to the belt tensioner being bad. I am very happy with the results. As somebody said before, he knows Minis very well.

I was one of the ten cars tuned in Florida. No regrets whatsoever but we did have limitations that day. I think getting a tune at his place will be best.

As far as I know John had 2 brands Lucky Dog Garage (LDG) and Behe and they decided not to pursue the LDG Brand.
