I would like to see if any forum members are interested in a tune from Jan Brueggemann at Revolution Motor Works (RMW). I have spoken to Jan already and 6 is the number needed before he comes up here. Myself and EBMCS03 are on board, so we would need at least 4 more. Other members who mentioned on the old Jan Tune 3 thread that they would be interested are: djflippy, scoopieb, Oranos991, Twiggles85, RichardF, italianjob - are you guys still interested? Costs would be as follows (paid in advance via the RMW website): R52 and R53: $350.00 R56: $500.00 I’m not sure whether 2011 and 2012 engines can be tuned (at the time of the last tune they weren’t - I’m an R53 owner so I don’t keep track of the R56's engines). Each tune will also require time on the dyno ($100 per hour). Please let me know if you’re interested - once I have six I will speak to Jan about possible dates.

Jan can't tune the N-18s in the gen 2s, last time I checked.

If everything seems under control, you're just not going fast enough.

R53MAO might be interested, but I think he needs to get some mods installed first.

He can if he, or you, remove the ECU so Jan can make hard wire changes. I would not do it unless you can work some way out with Jan to get it re-tuned remotely. |

I wish there was a local MINI Dealership, like our Honda, Subaru, Mazada and VW.

I didn't discuss dates with Jan - didn't want to until I knew whether we'd have enough people interested. Though with how busy Jan is I think it would be end-March at the earliest.
If R53MAO is in we'd have 5 at the moment so we still need a few more!! Noonzio EBMCS03 Oranos991 BSTINS (NAM member from Portland, not on PSMINI) R53MAO |

I'm in, but mine would be a re-tune so I'm not sure he'd count that towards the six.

I would bet a re-tune would count since dyno time is dyno time.
Now, if all you cats can line up in a row, all at the same time, there might be a chance for Jan to dedicate time for a trip. Do not get into the racing season since his time will probably be zero then. |

So if scoopieb's retune counts as one of the 6 then we've met our quota! Surely though more people are interested?? I would like to have at least 8 names before I contact Jan again in case we have some drop-outs or there are some people for whom the dates don't work.

For an R53 the tune is $350 and, as far as I know, dyno time is around $100 per hour, and an hour is required

Guys - Jan has suggested March 8th and 9th (a Friday and a Saturday).
How does that work for the 4 of you (EBMCS03, Oranos991, R53MAO and scoopieb) that said you'd be interested and would anyone else be interested if it was those dates? I have NOT spoken with Speed Factory yet. Greg

Either works for me. I prefer Friday anytime, since the kids usually have stuff on Saturdays.

Well on my way!
EBMCS03, scoopieb, Oranos991 and R53MAO - could I ask you to PM me your email addresses? Also, anyone else who is interested please PM me your email address too so I can send out an email to everyone with full details of what needs to be done next. Speed Factory is booked and Jan is confirmed. Next step is for everyone to pay, and once 6 people have paid Jan will book his flights. This is actually happening - March 8th and 9th. Greg
