Any difference to your tune compared to those of us running the Stage II+ w/single point injection at the IC tube, and-or race gas?

Wondering if Manic has changed your MAPs IOT take full advantage of a multi port injection system...

And what cc/min Nozzle are you running???

 

Same 2+ tune as the moment. Nick will get more agressive with the direct injection cars once we install the owens or anything bigger than OE. 126cc per port since that was closest we could get to achieving 500cc total. There's another kit coming together for Owens powered car so should be able to take advantage of more aggressive tuning very soon.

 

Stage 2 manic tune, R56. 2nd gear pulls on a cold night!

 

Matt, your car pulls hard, crazy it's a stock S turbo

unfortunately it feels normal now lol. Time for more POWAAAAA

 

I'm telling ya man, map A is perfect for everyday warm weather. Map B and C only feel right with cold weather. Otherwise they're a little off. But man when the weathers right, bam! I pulled on a BMW 5? Series in 4th gear in the highway last night. I've taken out a fair share of V8s

 

Time for bigger turbo, IC and new tune

I'm torn! I know a 4 door is in my future, I don't know how much more money I should put in, at this point I'll have to private sell it

 

Enjoy these glorious sounds.

 

Sounds like you're making some popcorn, what is that? Almost like a backfire.

 

just how a manic tuned Cooper s sounds with a straight exhaust

 

The phones recording ability doesn't do it justice, the pops don't sound that raspy

 

You are right, it's much better in person and under load. You still have the stock muffler, correct?

Yea the service manager at my dealership said he may have a JCW muffler for sale on the low soon, I guess he's buying s JCW tuning package and doesn't need the muffler. Hope it happens cuz me want!

 

So after driving the car for the week I highly recommend my setup. The catless downpipe and the stock exhaust system are a great combo sound wise. I don't get a lot of growl or any droning under 3k and when I want to make some noise I just go deeper into the pedal and there's plenty of noise to be made. I read some people saying that the tune didn't change the way their car sounded and I have to disagree my car sounds way better with the tune as soon as you start to hammer it the car just sounds mean and angry. It's much easier to drive now with the throttle response too. I wasn't sure how I was going to feel about the linear mapping but I wouldn't have it any other way now that I've driven it for a while. If anyone is on the fence about this tune just do it it's worth it 100%. I've owned several really fun cars and after the mods I will say this is the most fun car out of all of them.

 

+1 on the sound aspect;

I notice a lot of heads turning when I'm on it. And not in a bad way, more like a WTF😲... LOL. But seriously I can even hear the difference between Maps, C is the sexiest😁

 

What are people running for a clutch with these tunes? Any issues with using the stock S clutch?

 

no problems yet.

 

I'm on stock a 15K very hard miles. The only thing I don't do is launch the car hard or spin the wheels off the line.

I'm on the stock clutch with a Stage 3 Tune. No issues so far.

 

So I just got my car back from the dealership. They were doing an Oil Change, Front and Rear Brake Pads and Rotor change, Windshield Wiper Replacement, Replaced my battery cowl cover (because the door snapped off), and was diagnosing a window problem. They found the window problem right before they closed, Long Story short, so I got to have a brand new 2015 F56 for the weekend. Very impressed by the car surprisingly. Anyways I got my car back after a few days and now I am upset that my Stage 3 Manic tune is gone. The SPS makes a funny noise now when I plug it in. Probably indicating an error. I guess they wiped out my ECU during those few days. Hopefully I can go down to Indimanic this week and get a reflash. I assume the reprogramming in the brakes caused this?

 

Guess you didn't tell them not to flash? Didn't they see all the gear and figure it was tuned? I'd be pissed!!

 

Yeah I didnt. I just thought that they were resetting the counter for the brakes showing that there was new ones put on. I assumed it was much like an oil change where they reset the computer. But now my manic tune is gone. Noooo

 

any time they reset any light or code they typically plug it in, I always make sure to say not to flash it even though my service advisor knows, he always puts a sticky note on the tac, it's a pricey mistake man, sorry to hear!
