Yes Jan, if we buy the tool will it come with a test tune that may be better than stock but still not as good as your dyno tune?

Can't wait.

Jan, please put me on the list. old81 (Don Suiter)

As we discussed long ago, can the unit support more than one MINI in this version of the tool. Like the 09 JCW and my 07 MCSa (scooter).

Might have to have you come to Denver again.

Thanks,
Don

I hope an updated tune and my stock file aren't too much more.

people that have the tune already will not be charged for the tunes again

if we retune the car because you added parts etc, then it's $50

so in your current state.... no additional fees

it will be a generic tune that is safe, as always a dyno tune is recommended and will result in more hp

ya, but I want a retune, I know you've made a lot of advancements since it was initially done .. esp. that pop & burble I've even gone out and bought a couple data loggers. I'll be testing out the Crecorder shortly, which if it works well, I'll make available for any other locals that want to borrow it.

is the generic tune the same tune for every tool, or is it different for different cars with different mods?

and will the generic tune have the pops and burbles?

yes on pops/burbles
"generic" tune will be for the mods you have without squeezing every bit out of the car by dyno tuning the car
