I'm not sure I need a tune or just a check-up, but I sure would like some face time with Jan for consultation. I have his remote tuning tool, and I think I buggered it up. I also throw code P0420 frequently, and I want to know if there's a way to prevent this .... so I'll take a slot on the schedule. You should post to the PSMini board, too; I'm sure there will be takers.

Hey Clint,
I might be up for another re-tune if Jan's coming up, but I've got the remote flash tool on order, so I'm not sure if it'll be necessary.

Having Jan there eliminates many variables. I had the remote tune module also. Having Jan there is much better. Plus he rides around with you and does some driving tuning. Remote tuning is definitely great for those who cant have Jan to tune it in person.

Do you have an aftermarket header? If so buy a spark plug non-fouler, drill the tip out a little bit and put that in between your o2 sensor and the hole for the o2 sensor. Like this http://forums.evolutionm.net/evo-how...ouler-how.html

no the 2nd gen mini is a whole different beast, the ecu is so touchy that anything but the stock downpipe sets p0420's and all of the workarounds (including the RR o2 sim) still set the p0420 or some other 02 faults.
And Jan doesn't always ride around with you and do driving tuning, esp. if your tune is scheduled after Clint.

I would be interested as long as we have 30+ days notice.

I would like to order/install some parts prior to tuning.
