South East Tuning

[td2]

Are there any mini specilists like lohen and gtt in the South East (mainly Essex way?).

[tom2005]

I would like to know that too!

[Jaffa Racer]

I dont know of any, but its worth the trip to see Roland 220 and better fuel consumption to boot. Cant wide enough

[td2]

I think west tuning is the closest place to the south east!!! Although they dont post prices etc on there site which is a bit annoying

[Jaffa Racer]

Fair point, have a search on here for reviews on the tuners as its more than a power upgrade. Its about where it make the power, try to find people local to you who have converted cars. I'm sure most will be more than happy to take you for a spin.

Indeed. Thing is people like gtt and lohen do them all the time and must have learnt a fair amount which is bound to provide them with a better knowledge than the average joe tuning shop.

Personaly I'd take the spanners to it myself but I'm in way over my head when it comes to ecu remapping (probably due to the cost of equipment

I know west have done a few and have a good rep so i'll drop them a call tomo see what there prices are like

Anyone around the Guildford area have a Cooper S with a Gtt conversion done?? If so, whats the chances of taking me out for a spin so i can feel the drive / power before i decide which stage to go for.

Thanks!

If your hand with spanners the make sure your by-pass valve is correctly adjusted.

Hey Kev,

I guess you got it done then mate!

What was the final spec in the end then, did you take the janspeed exhaust also?

[Jaffa Racer]

I went the 220 route with the 1% crank pully, so couldnt have the Janspeed!!

It really makes me laugh out loud more bhp & a massive wave or torque but i get more MPG. As everybody says this is the way a standard S "should" come form the factory.

Yeah its unreal hey, Roland did a top job as always i expect.....Its just scary going down there cause it always cost me 10 times as much as it should have done, like i only went down there for the 220 conversion then ended up with everything and porche brakes

The missus went mad when she saw the bill, and i fitted most of it myself

So im going to get everything posted now

Are you showing your car in a couple weeks at our mini show then kev?
