Vishnu PROcede for MINI
Hi guys,
Figured this was the best place to make the announcement. We're currently in the process of developing a PROcede application for the new turbocharged Mini. This is the same PROcede we have been using sucessfully on the twin turbo BMW 335i. We hope to have some early testing results up in the next 2-3 weeks. If you have any questions, let me know.
Cheers,
Shiv

This is excellent news Shiv! I look forward to reading about your R&D work with the Mini (hopefully you'll be as publicly open about the progress as you were the the E90/E92 application).
When you're selecting beta cars, please feel free to contact me, as our shop does have an R56 MCS project car coming in in the next couple weeks, and the owner will only be able to keep it stock for so long.

Welcome to NAM Shiv! You can put me down for a PROcede provided you can flatten out the boost curve across the RPM range.
The PROcede, as I understand it, is a plug-in piggyback module. Not as ideal as an ECU flash, but considering an ECU flash for the R56 might be about as easy as cracking Fort Knox, the PROcede may be the dogs bollocks for a while.

Will you consider making it user switchable after installed? Maybe an ignition off switch. I ask because I'd love power and mileage, though the two are generally mutually exclusive. So a switch to enable the power would make a fun split personality for the MINI.
If I were building a piggyback, that's how I'd build it.

karl - mileage and power aren't mutually exclusive. My supercharged R53 had 190whp and got 25mpg avg. When I dropped the blower and went single-turbo, I then got 318whp and 31mpg avg. There's no modern reason, especially with the R56, to compromise between the two when the torque demand of crusing versus peak power are so different. If you want good mileage, don't floor it...literally that simple!

--->Shiv or Dustin: Could you provide some insight as to what the PROcede changes? Just a summary to give us an idea what gets changed in terms of engine management would help. Does the PROcede change ignition timing, AFR targets, or the boost controller? How about the Sport button or the throttle pedal response?
Thanks,
Ryan

Hi Ryan,
We are very early in the stages of development at the moment. At this point, we know the PROcede will control the necessities of ignition advance, Fueling control and boost control. Beyond that, further development is needed to determine what else will need to be adapted.
