Has anyone upgraded their ECU chip on their CVT?
If so, what kind of results did you get? bhp increase?

TIA

I don't know of anyone so equipped but will watch with interest. I'm curious about the modifications priority for the Cooper CVT.

Big percentage gains (on 110lb-ft of Torque) may come from a careful header, the cat-back exhaust to carry it through, and better breathing of cool air into the engine. Would these modificattions be the better first-use of dollars compared to a chip. In what order?
