My R55 is Moving to Denver, CO

I will be moving from SF Bay Area, CA to Denver, CO next year. I have a 2013 R55 S. Will my Mini need to be tuned differently to accommodate the change in altitude?

Thank you!

The ECU will adapt but off course the car will make less power there, but it’s ok because all the cars make lees power

You can prepare by checking out the MINI5280 and MINCOW clubs. On facebook join "MINI5280 Social Hub" and "MiniCOW - Minis of CO-Wy".

Your MINI will notice the change in altitude in Denver at mile high, 5280 feet. Especially at 10,000 feet it takes time for the turbo to spin up as there is just less air. But the seasons and beauty will more than make up for it.
