NM Tune

I am contemplating getting the NM Engineering tune for my 2010 R55 S. I currently have the following modifications: K&N Typhoon Intake, Helix Intercooler, Both NM tubes attached to the Intercooler, and Borla Cat Back exhaust. They said I could safely run their Stage 2. I am wondering if anyone else was running this tune with a similar setup and how was their experience? Performance and durability.

Thanks for any input.

I'm running their tune with most of the same mods but with the NM downpipe back exhaust. I noticed a great difference in performance. I've been running the tune in my 2010 MCS for over a year now.

Did you get the dyno difference? Any better gas mileage? Reliability?

Yes, stage 2. I haven't had it back on the dyno after I got the tune. I cannot really tell you if it's any better or worse on gas. I haven't had any issues with the tune. I'm also running one step colder plugs.

It's not necessary but it's also not a bad idea to keep the temps in check.
