Chip tuning box

Hello guys. New here. I tried searching and can’t seem to find anything about this.

Has anyone tried this before ? https://chippower24.com/113-chip-cs2.../car_model-r53

it goes to your MAP and MAF sensor and tricks your ECU?

If so. Which ones for my 2006 Cooper S

And does it work?

Thank You

wow. Ok. Just want to be sure. They’re actually talking to me on eBay after first message. As i asked for dyno proof

“Hello,

Please supply the following information:

- engine size (L or cc),
- Engine Power: (BHP, PS,CV or kW),

First , we need to check the compatibility.

Unfortunately, we do not have any dyno sheet , each car is different .

The estimated power gain is 10-15% depending mainly on the engine and filters condition but also on many other individual characteristics of particular car. The effects are visible after about 200 km. After this distance, you can begin adjusting and increase the power of the chip, if required. The device comes pre-adjusted. However, due to the fact that each car is different, in some cases, additional adjusting is required.”

what brands are you familiar with? Or modding the MAP & MAF sensors makes a difference?

Gen 1 MINIs shark injectors, Madness Motorworks. In Gen 2 MINIs up that are turbo there are piggybacks(plug on) like Dinan, Nm Engineering, Chipwerke, Burgermotorsport. ECU flashed like Manic and Madness Motorworks. When MINI came out with the turbo engines that's when more tunes came into the game. On the older MINIs most are flash the ECU with the car there.

you have links for these? I have an 06 Cooper S.
I know getting a tune and the pedal commander or sprint booster is the next step after the regular mods. Pulley CAI etc.

but looking for something easy bolt on to save some $ before getting that complete tune.

So if this product is bull. Anything other companies that makes something like this are all scams too?

you recomend the SB over the pedal commander?

And I’m familiar with the ESC tune. That’s down the line after all th mods are done. I.e. big valves headers etc.

was lookikg for something intantike the link above. Chip box. Any other companies or having that kind of upgrade doesn’t work at all.

Sprintbooster has been the choice for MINI owners and its also on sale right now which happens like one time a year. All the stuff we carry is good on the MINIs. It's those companies that are outside our realm that pop up and say they have tunes for MINI I would worry about.

They have a picture of the Prodrive MINI WRC that was done by Prodrive as far as develpment and tuning. Looks like they just covered up the www.minimotorsport.com sticker on the front windsheild?
