Talking Tuning F60 PHEV

Since I couldn't find anyone on here who's done this yet... figured I'll be the guinea pig...

I just purchased a 2019 F60 Mini Countryman Cooper S E PHEV, since the front axel is driven by the gas engine and the Rear by electric, I figured it would be worth trying to tune the 1.5L B38 with a Dinan Elite Tuner. Just order that now, even though there's no proof it will work, but I figured since no one's tried it, might as well. I'll post here about whether it works or not. Wish me luck!

OK! so, been working with Dinan on this... appears that the Elite Tuner works perfectly fine with the countryman SE. having slight issues with the intake, but not what would be expected. currently running rich instead of lean. but otherwise the ELITE TUNER WORKS WONDERS!!!!! talk about really waking up a car! in Sport and Auto eDrive, this thing HAULS ***!!!!!! dare I say traffic light to traffic light it feels more eager than my old Type R. not going to claim it is, might just be the electric go that's giving that sensation, but with the power bump to around 260/320 I'd believe this puppy will pull well!

2018 F60SE here. Subscribed for results. Considering something like this too. What is your mileage? Mine just over 100k. Any update on gas mileage?
