I'd get in touch with Evotech

while there are a few that do it that I know about (I think Madness is an Evotech site), they aren't the oft talked about tuners here on NAM.

So long as they actually do a dyno/road tune. Don't settle for the "canned" tunes from Evotech, they can't be trusted.

Evotech Tune

Just had 15% Pulley and Evotech Tune from Madness. George of Madness downloaded the ECU file and sent it with the mod information. The file came back and ECU remapped with the new file.

I didn't do the exhaust - just the pulley and CAI - but not the cowl mod. The OEM cowl does have a small hole in it already, and that is good enough.

The car is wonderful - does everything I had heard Coopers could/should do. Totally tractable in town, great torque down low from about 1500 RPM and gets ever stronger right up to redline. Totally smooth at any speed. I haven't gone through a full tank yet, but it looks like I am getting about the same or better mileage, which has been averaging 27.6 for all driving which is 75% in town.

I do drive conservatively in town, keeping the revs low - around 2,000 rpm unless accelerating.

Fred get a custom dyno tune I know RMW often does tuning in North East area. That way you know what you get in term of real wheel horsepower from your tune.
