R53 custom tune

Anyone on the forums willing to do a remote custom tune for my
R53? I can email you the ecu file
From the dyno and you can email me back the tune file which I can flash my car with. If anyone knows anyone that's willing to do this or that can do this that would be greatly appreciated. Also if there are any companies out there that are willing to flash my car this way!

you have 3 options,
1.) Mynes/bytetronik
2.) RMW
3.) Waymotorworks

those are the only people i know who do r53 remote tuning

so unless you are using the same software as one of them, i think you would need to get their uploader.

unless you find a stranger on the forums who knows what they are doing

IMO it is well worth paying the $350 for a tune from a person that knows r53 cars...
Motor parts are $$$, and if you burn a valve, etc cause you hot a "deal" on a tune....you lost a huge amount of $$$$.
I was skeptical....but got a RMW tune...and WOW..more than just power is modified, but throttle response and dsc.....WELL WORTH IT.
Just be sure you communicate with your tuner..so they know EXACTLY what you want...
I asked for a good, reliable conservative tune...have had it for years now, no issues....
but some folks want to get the highest Numbers, and try to get bragging rights or race....so they do not mind pushing the motor harder, and maybe having a shorter life...
