For and on behalf of everyone on mini2 I would like to share my latest adventure down at West Tuning and also not to forget to thank Birds/Hartge for a fantastic 2.5 years I spent with them and there 212-215 upgrade in which the service they provided I thought could never be beaten, however the last few weeks have been exhilarating down at West Tuning from day one they have given me as much time and technical information as I wanted and whilst my car was with them I was updated every day on its progress, there wer a few set backs however when Ray (west tuning) found that there wer air leeks around piping to the throttle body and the crank case vacuum was not holding up when pressure tested, although dyno'd at 251bhp he was not happy and decided to change all the pipework in order to rectify the problem, my point being he could of easily told me it was at the 260bhp he promised me and I would of believed him, the piping was changed at no extra cost to myself and I made the journey down on the Saturday morning for the in house dyno, result a true 261.3 bhp@ 6710rpm with 214lbs ft torque@4204rpm and finally the thumbs up from Ray then he proceded to give me a full technical explanation on how and how not to carry out a dyno which I will be adding to this post soon for anyone who would like to know, as for the road test thats all I can say is "it's fast" for fear of reprisals, you will just have to believe me....
To sum up I found Ray to be a very private sort of person keeping everything close to his chest, he has a genuine reason for this once bitten twice shy shall we say, as you can see he does not share much input with us on mini2 regarding his modifications, he doesn't have too but I can assure you he knows his stuff, I have actually really enjoyed my last week or so with West Tuning feeling as if I have known them for years so well done Ray and the boys...
