Bluefin owners!

Just purchased a bluefin through the group buy for my ONE

Just wondered what you think of it and the generalpower gains. Was it worth the cash??

Have i made a good decision???

Has anyone had theirs on the rolling road to check the power output against what superchips say?

there will always be a small variation not beacuse of the bluefin but beacsue the bhp your mini leaves the factory with is an avergae i think 10-15% varaition can occur more in the cooper and the S a bit less of a variation in the one well thats what the bloke on the factiry tour said anyway

confusion, madness and disorder .............. my work here is done

Hi Alex,
I also have a mini one and i only fitted the bluefin about 2 weeks ago. I was a bit aprehensive about remapping the ECU but i can tell you now that you will not be dissapointed. Once you hit 4000 revs the car simply flys! I love motorway slip roads now
I think it makes a slight diference under 4000rpm aswell as the car feels more responsive, but, like i said, the power and the surge really come when you it 4000rpm and once you hit 5000rpm just make sure you keep an eye on your speed cos you will be doing 100mph before you even realise!!
hope you enjoy it mate and let me know what you think to it when you install it. I put it on a rolling road and my car came out at 125bhp and that is with no other mods at all!
