I'm trying to find a shop that can dyno/tune my 03' JCW MCS for me. I'm in SW Missouri (Springfield), and I can't seem to find anyone that does this kind of work. Even out as far as St.Louis, KC, or even Tulsa.

Anyone know of place that can tune Mini's in my area?

Thanks!

 

Remote tune with Way or RMW... seems to be easiest way now a days.

 

Yes, but I've heard that the "canned" tunes are just so-so, and not really all that great. Sounds like the only way to do it right is by putting it on a dyno and sending them the dyno info in order to dial in the canned tune...like the one you get from Way or RMW.

 

I wouldn't call the remote tunes from Way or RMW canned tunes.

Essentially you have to buy their flash tool, you hit the dyno, email them the map from your flash tool, they make corrections, email it back. You load it into you ECU, hit they dyno again, and repeat the process until they have essentially made almost every change they would were they there in person. It is still a custom tailored tune to your car, not a generic 15%, intake, exhaust "canned" tune.

Helix does this with RMW when Jan is unavailable to travel here for tuning parties. In my personal opinion, I would rather get a remote tune from Way or Jan then try to find a local "tuner" shop that may be hit or miss. Just my .02c

 

Thanks for the info! Sounds like I just need to find a place with a dump then. How do I find out where the closest one is??

 

Google is your friend?

There may be others?

 

Cobb Tuning has a shop in in the Dallas Metroplex area. Might be close enough for a AP custom tune.
