alrite mikey!!

i think your mini needs a nu sound system, you should gut it, and leave it all in na big pile that i may 'find' *ahem*

the gains are posted up on the MTH threads somewhere, its supposed to take a stock S to 190 gee gees, cant say im 100% convinced, as non of the other chip companies can offer this on an S, only one way to find out thou!!! u got a pully on yours?

I really want to MTH my One, but I'm just a little worried I'll screw it up! At least with the OneClick or similar, nothing can really go wrong. I need more convincing!

If you follow the MTH thread you will find the best settings for your laptop then, turn your phone off, get in the car from the passenger side, sit down, plug your laptop in and place it on the drivers seat, turn the radio and fan off, turn the ignition on and set the software running and then dont do anything for the next 5 minutes. Dont open the door, dont pretend to drive, just sit there and let the software do its thing

It IS worth it.

minionefun · Jan 11th, 2005, 06:38 PM

MTH - iv had no problems perfect upload and download every time

just disable antivirus programs and anything elce that runs on your laptop , disable all screensavers etc.

really easy to do it does sound worrying at 1st , but really its not, and car has been in to bmw for warranty work everything is fine and there is big diff on the one
