Tuner

Good morning guys, I am new to this form but I've been seeing this form for quite a while, and it seems that there's A lot knowledge on mini coopers in this form. Where I live there's not too many tuners that will have the correct equipment or the knowledge to do a correct Dino tune.
My question is which would be the best production tuner in the market for my 2009 mini Cooper s r56
it basically has everything that you can both on down pipe 3 inch exhaust intercooler muffler delete Air intake so forth. Next on the list would be a bigger turbo.
any help will be appreciated
thank you

I know this is an old thread, but looking for a tuner for an R56. Looks like not many if any good option for a Mini. I can find tuning devices for many cars, but none of those suppliers offer for a Mini.

You can start with Way Motors...

The N18 engine is pretty well locked down and you will need to send your ECU to someone like Way. The other option is the JB+ add on. There are other options for the N14. Do some searches on NAM.

Save yourself from trying to over search this like I did when I first got on here.

Yup, that one too. It depends on how far you want to go. Mario can do the Manic tune also. An advantage I see with the Manic tune is the switch box that comes with it where you can return it to the stock tune for things like inspections. If that isn’t a priority, then RPM is a good bet.

Mario can probably supply you with the powergate tool to load the rpm tune
