RENNtech TUNE

I'm in the market for a tuning solution and just as I'm about ready to go with the Evolve tune I realized that it's not available. While I don't have to tune my car right away it has caused me to look at other options, like RennTech. I know of at least one person that is going to go with RennTech on this forum. Just looking for feedback and reviews. I've called and left a message and sent an email on Monday (living in MST and trying to get a hold of people living in EST is a pain sometimes). Here's a couple of questions to get the ball rolling for those considering this option:

1) What engine/model of MINI do you have (N14 vs N18, MCS vs JCW)?
2) How much additional power are you producing (to the crank or wheels)?
3) What additional mods do you have (downpipe, intercooler, etc)?
4) Have you re-tuned? If so, how much did a re-tune cost (as in: did you re-tune because you've installed additional mods since the original tune)?

Also qualitative feedback and experiences would be helpful.

Unfortunately I live in CO so that means I would have to send my ECU to RENNtech. I'm hoping to get some quantitative and qualitative feedback before I lighten my wallet haha.

Gotcha. Too bad. Check out the N18 tuning thread if you haven't already. Lenny, the Mini tuner at RennTech, is posting on there. He's thrown out a few dyno charts. They are very impressive.

If you want to lighten your wallet, check out PAW too(located in FL). RennTech and PAW are both very good.
