Shark Injector Cooper S

They retail for 399.99

I'll let it go for 300.00 shipping not included

just PM me...here's the info from the ad
the first true 'plug-and-play' ECU upgrade option for the new MINI, The MINI Shark Injector. The MINI Shark Injector combines an unbeatable low cost with the ultimate in convenience. The MINI Shark Injector plugs into the data port of your MINI and with the push of a button the pre-programmed upgrade is downloaded to your ECU. (Requires a minimum 10 Amp battery charger and 40 minutes for preparation, programming, and confirmation.) Returning the settings to stock is just as easy, simply press the button again. Optional programs will be available for all levels of tune, to include supercharger pulley upgrade, cold air intake, exhaust header, catback exhaust, cylinder head, camshaft, or any combination thereof. The MINI Shark Injector, developed by Motronic expert Jim Conforti, provides the ultimate in performance. The modified software, optimized for 93 or higher octane gasoline, adjusts the ignition timing and fuel curves which results in increased performance. Compared to other ECU program upgrades available, the MINI Shark Injector provides superior performance throughout the entire RPM range while maintaining a safe margin for engine life. The MINI Shark Injector also provides an increase in the factory rev-limit, allowing for optimum shift points for maximum acceleration. Not only does it re-map part-throttle fuel and spark, it also re-maps areas other tuners don't touch - such as acceleration enrichment and transition fueling[/font]

You must be selling this for someone else...yes? Otherwise you would have remembered using it, I assume.

When the Shark Injector is FIRST used, the target vehicle's VIN is transferred to the injector. This is done to assure that, once used, the injector will only update the original car. It renders it useless on any other car.

Thus it is important that if you are selling this for someone, that person is absolutely sure it has not been used...even for an unsuccessful update!

It pays to double check this to avoid any problems down the road.

FWIW,

If it's used, it can only be reused on that vehicle. When it arrives, it can not be loaded successfully. It will need to fail the first install, then be mailed to Stratmoshere to be upgrade to your current ECU software version. I mailed mine in for the update to v36 before letting it fail. It was useless to Stratmosphere. Josh had to mail it back to me, and then me back to him, and then him back to me.

Hope that helps.
