Im dying to get my car tuned but cant seem to find a place to get the job done. can anyone recommend a place that will do the job for a reasonable price, and do it right of coarse. I live in miami.

 

Just buy a remote tune like one that Evolve Automotive offers. Otherwise, you'll be waiting for a tuning party to come relatively close to where you live and who knows how long that will take. The advantage a custom tune will have for your MINI will be barely noticeable compared to a generic tune from a remote device. I know this is hotly debated, but in all honesty I think people really blow this out of proportion.

You are also forgetting one very important mod you need. A bigger intercooler.

sorry i forgot to mention my mini is a 2011. all the remote tuners claim up to 2010 only....

 

Evolve is in the process of cracking it. I bet they are close. Give them a call!

 

so im stuck waitin for someone to figure out the medv 17.2.2 ecu..... ;/ got to do something in the mean time so i ordered a fmic. lol

 

Not a bad decision at all

 

thanks. i went with Alta. it looks like its gonna be a tight fit with my brake ducts in the lower grill but Alta assured me it will fit. i asked 3 times lol

 

PAW Motorsports

 

thanks for the reccomendation but i was there last week and was not thrilled with the owner. he was a bit critical of some of the mods i chose to do to my car and did not want to dyno. even after i agreed to pay the extra $100 he requested for dyno bringing the tune price to a total of $850.00 he said to leave the car overnight and he would do the dynos and tune when i was not around. everyone is different. people like different brand parts, want the exhaust done their way. no one likes to here critisim especially from a guy you're about to pay about a grand to work on your car. It felt wrong to give him the work. im just gonna put in my fmic when it gets here and wait for someone else to figure out the ECU.

 

My experience with those guys has been on an isolated third party incident where someone brought us a "tuned" car for some dyno runs and bolt-ons performed by Orlando MINIs now defunct performance division. The graph was ok. Just ok. Car made decent power for a 2012 countryman awd on a heart-breaker of a mustang dyno. It sucks you had a less than pleasurable experience. Don't like to drop bad advice. That was just the only one I knew of that could help you in the area.

 

Why not go Forge? It fits AND it actually bolts in. Way in Atlanta installed mine.
