: Group Buy: R56 MCS Remap Performance_Torque Oct 28th, 2008, 03:39 PM Hi Guys
I am looking to start a group buy for R56 Cooper S owners if there is enough interest.
The re-map is usually £395.00 for members, however, if I can get a group together I will offer the following discounts:
MAPPING CARRIED OUT VIA OBD....NO ECU REMOVAL!
Group of 5 = £325.00 all in with before/after dyno power run
Group of 10 = £295.00 all in with before/after dyno power run
Please post here, or e-mail me at info@p-torque.co.uk if you would like to be listed for the group buy.
Includes models with start/stop function :)

Ken robfish1985 Oct 28th, 2008, 06:46 PM Oh God...this could be Octobers spending money gone already..:p Bombers_son Oct 28th, 2008, 09:58 PM deffo consider this Benny No.1 Oct 28th, 2008, 10:15 PM Hmmmm...

I think Will goes on a car by car basis, adjusting the map accordantly. He claims 235bhp with a full turbo back Milltek exhaust! SimonSJR Oct 28th, 2008, 11:51 PM Hi Will,
I'm interested now you've got the start stop cars working.
Put me down for the offer if we can meet those numbers :cool: popey Oct 29th, 2008, 07:47 AM I think Will goes on a car by car basis, adjusting the map accordantly. He claims 235bhp with a full turbo back Milltek exhaust!
Thats a lot of BHP for not a whole lot of money.
Intresting to see what he could with a Factory JCW ;) Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 09:06 AM I just realised I missed an important point!!
The mapping will carried out via OBD! We are the first UK tuner to be offering this:D Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 09:09 AM Ok guys, I have started listing those who want to get in on the GB.
Please let me know if you would like me to add you ;) kevkbuk Oct 29th, 2008, 09:15 AM Can you do anything for an MCS with the 192bhp JCW Tuning kit? Benny No.1 Oct 29th, 2008, 10:54 AM OBD Tuning! OMG high five Will! How much control do you have of the ECU now? can i stick on a 600hp turbo yet? :) Max Hooters Oct 29th, 2008, 12:00 PM I'm keen on this but like the other guys would like a few questions answered. So mine combined with the ones in the thread you have not yet answered in an open forum are:
- Does the P-Torque throw CEL's that you know of?
- Advantages of OBD for those not in the know versus say a re-flash or PNP?
- What power will this make on a stock R56 MCS?
- What power will this make on an R56 with a turbo back exhaust?
- How does it work with the stop/start function?
- Do you map each car individually?
- Can the map be returned to standard for dealer servicing and then reinstalled?
- If the battery is disconnected will the tune dissapear?
I'm dead keen to get in on this group buy. Just want some information as above so I know it's what I am looking for.
Cheers

High five back at you :D
No, we're not mapping for big turbo's yet, still not enough turbo upgrades out there to test the engine internals Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 12:14 PM I'm keen on this but like the other guys would like a few questions answered.

Hi Ben
I will answer your questions in order:
No CEL's at all
OBD tuning makes no difference to us as a tuner, although its nice for the customer to know that the ECU is not removed in order to carry out the tuning
Power differs from car to car, we have seen between 204bhp to 211bhp depending on the cars stock figures
Approx 225 - 230bhp with turbo back exhaust
Start/stop is unaffected
Yes, each car is mapped individually using our stage 1 software
We can change the map back and forth. Flashing to stock is free, flashing back to tuned state is £25.00
No, it will be like the car came out of the factory like it, so the battery has no impact Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 12:15 PM Can you do anything for an MCS with the 192bhp JCW Tuning kit?
Yes, we can tune the Stage 1 JCW, although I haven't had one on the dyno yet, so can't quote figures Benny No.1 Oct 29th, 2008, 01:02 PM Yes, we can tune the JCW, although I haven't had one on the dyno yet, so can't quote figures
Will you not see the same gains as a normal Cooper S? As you are using the same base car just the JCW 192 car has already had a remap all be it not as aggressive?
PS. Will can you get the exhaust to pop and burble like a JCW factory car? from what i read thats all done by some tweaks in the ECU???

No, gains will differ due to different back pressures etc
You will usually get a little more popping after mapping, although mapping to make a car pop isn't really the done thing :D Max Hooters Oct 29th, 2008, 02:07 PM Mark me down.
When is this likely to go ahead.
Waiting on prices for an Alta turbo back as I want a 3 inch system so just want to know some rough timings. Max Hooters Oct 29th, 2008, 05:29 PM By the time I get my P-Torque I should have a 3 inch Alta turbo back exhaust and an Alta CAI.
Bring on the gains. Ultimate goal is 300hp. First hurdle is to break 200hp, then 250hp.
Can't wait. robfish1985 Oct 29th, 2008, 07:35 PM Will...add me to the group buy please! Cheers Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 07:44 PM Mark me down.

You're added ;)
I am hoping to carry out the re-maps in November :cool: Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 07:47 PM Will...add me to the group buy please! Cheers
Added :) Performance_Torque Oct 29th, 2008, 08:07 PM Sorry guys, I have been a but vague regarding the JCW versions.
From software alone, the P-Torque software will give you approx 240 - 250bhp on the factory JCW, with its larger twin scroll turbo and strengthened cylinder head :D:D Max Hooters Oct 30th, 2008, 11:18 AM I don't know about you guys but I'm very keen for a remap. I might not be ready by November but fingers crossed. Happy to pay upfront. Want to get the Alta DP and exhaust on before the tune.
Any chance I can head over for an RR dead stock before I fit the intake? Want to see what gains everything gives me as all these pie in the sky figures are a little frustrating.
P-Torque seems like it's the way forward. MINIAC Oct 30th, 2008, 05:00 PM This thread has been cleaned up and moved to the Sponsors own forum.
If you wish to discuss claims of performance gains please start a thread in the 2nd Gen Engine & Drivetrain forum.

Of course you can come and have a dyno run before hand ;) Tobes Oct 31st, 2008, 10:35 AM Sorry guys, I have been a but vague regarding the JCW versions.

wow is that with the standard factory works exhaust on??
what does OBD stand for - excuse my ignorance!! Performance_Torque Oct 31st, 2008, 10:41 AM wow is that with the standard factory works exhaust on??

Yes, its a much more free flowing exhaust than the normal Cooper S, wider bore due to the larger turbo used.
