Stage 2 Manic this Friday
I’ve got all my parts and am ready to get going with my mods. I have my AEM cold air intake and Alta inlet installed. I have a Race Dynamics catless downpipe, Wagner sport intercooler, Alta hot side charge pipe, NGK 1422 and spark plugs. Headed to G3 in Raleigh on Friday for install and a Manic stage 2 tune. I’ve been looking forward to this since I bought the car in December.

Congratulations and enjoy. When Im done installing a Manic tune and give the keys back I usually tell the customer "Heres the keys to your new car". Sometimes I get funny looks... until they drive it that is

So far so good
Its been a while since I had the tune and parts installed. I’ll say it’s a whole different animal. No CEL and no problems. I’ve only ran map 1 so far. If I disable traction control completely is does a great burnout, has a good strong bark at 2nd and a little bark shifting to 3rd. It pulls about as strong as the Duramax dually I used to own. It was 450hp and about 700lb/ft. But the Mini is less than half the weight. It will blow the doors off my old 1987 GTA Trans Am. But my truck would too,😁.
The only thing I don’t like is the Alta inlet. It has the wrong bend in it and the port for the recirc is a bit short making it difficult to have a simple and clean connection.
