Thanks for that link. That's what I somehow missed and was looking for.

Wow. This sounds pretty awesome. They are bold claims though. They are claiming the same output as the new jcw! ...and better fuel consumption...

How you can add boost and reduce fuel consumption is unfathomable to me.

^that was my first thought. more boost and less fuel is a no go. Possibly it has a map for efficiency? but I'd think they would advertise it with selectible maps if that were the case.

I emailed Remus USA and asked if it was available. Here is their response:

The Powerizer you are looking for cost $699 usd. That specific unit you are looking for needs to be special ordered. We can add it to one of our existing orders when you are ready.

$699 - yikes

BMS is still the better deal and the product i'm very comfortable with. i don't see a Remus (or NM for that matter) forum. there's a whole forum dedicated to not just ours, but various other BMS modules.

hate to sound like i'm selling for them, but it's what i'm seeing when i compare BMS with the other tunes.

Yea that's what I'm leaning towards... Way Motor Works has one also not sure about specs on it. I think it's like 500 or so also.

I've never read any Mini owner say anything bad about BMS Burgertune, and the R56 forums are full of threads.

Up to 50% more torque?

That is a very BOLD claim. With the "up to" numbers they provide, my MCS could make a max of 259hp/420tq.

Their claims are a bit questionable at best. Price is way high. BMS is the only way to go IMO. Proven product. Fair price. Realistic power/torque gain claims. Claims that have been proven.

Yea I noticed that "up to" also...if it was true it would be awesome.

I need to bite the bullet and get the Burger.

The red has to be good for at least a +10 hp boost....that's just science...

This Remus box looks suspiciously like another piggyback from Germany; Racechip. Check this out: https://www.northamericanmotoring.co...race-chip.html
