I think it's about 200lb/ft of torque as well. It certainly goes really nice now, massive improvement.
He was showing me how clever the standard ECU is on the Minis very very clever.

i blame the internet.
air filters used to be talked about in this way in real life, now its just cool to have the parts that the people in halfords don't sell and then to believe the internet hype.
car tuning is just hear'say these days, you repeat what someone else has written

no, its all done as its the done thing (on the internet), like in real life air filters are the done thing until you reach the internet, then you have to claim they destroy air flow meters.
its like a big game of follow the leader

It's like when everyone used to buy a Corsa and turn it in to a GSi instead of just buying a GSi in the first place. They are all going round trying to turn them in to Mini John Cooper Works

Standard ECUs are very clever, adaptive to your driving and modifications you fit
Brembo caliper covers are everywhere in Thailand

same as any ecu then? lol
although with a lot of modern ecus there is probably a limit for adaptations, maybe the mini one is more forigivng for various adaptations from modifications
