Just seen this months Evo mag ,with tests on all the main contenders,regarding tuning the S.

Every time I see a write up the figures are so different,I don`t really believe any of them,eg Evo said that the Cooper S 30 -50 in 3rd 4th 5th 6th are identical to the Works S ,yet 0-60 is slower & 0 - 100 is as well,it just doesn`t add up ?????

AC Schnitzer 0-30 0-40 0-50etc up to 0-110 are with in 1 tenth,yet50 -70 for works s in 3rd is 4.6 AC is 3.9 !!!! explain please,AC car is quicker virtually everywhere in gear ,how come,same driver throughout test.

This is very confusing ,hence I dont think we can believe all these test figures,what do you think???

BBR comes our very well ,GGR has more work done on it than any other car ,in gear times are very good yet o-60 & 0-100 are slower than works S,but in gear quicker .

Any thoughts guys ,Dave.

Spoke to Daniel from Birds about this, they arn't too bothered about what Evo have said, in fact if you look their in gear times are pretty awesome.
