Drivetrain The Always Up-to-Date Thread on Tuning 2011+ (N18) MINIs

Sprint Booster is quick way to throw away $300. All it does is modifying the throttle signal with a couple of resistors. There would be zero power difference. You could get similar results by pushing the gas pedal to WOT.

I'm interested
I don't. So far I've got around 5 local early adopters and I want to get that up to at least 10 so I can get a comfort level that any bugs are worked out, etc, before we start shipping across the country. So if anyone knows anyone with an N18 interested in tuning in the socal area (close to 93065) drop me an email.

Yah, I wasn't going to get a sprint, just wondering if the tune can at all affect throttle mapping. If so, bonus, if not, oh well

I just put a Forge BOV kit on my GP and noticed something interesting going on from time to time...
The engine burbles occasionally during the random quick rev of the engine during rev up(not wide open, just a quick tap of the throttle at a light). Sounds like an anti-lag setup, but it bugs me a bit. Also the engine likes to occasionally rev itself to about 3k and sit there for a moment, without any throttle imput from me at all... Only other mods are an NM Intake kit and lower engine mount insert kit.
Any thoughts?

Oh sorry, i forgot i was in the "I'm a total jerk thread". My mistake.
Hang on, that was a question about tuning! And a tuning thread about an engine I have in my car, and had mentioned tuning with specifics about how i did it? No way! I was right after all. Huh!
Now, anyone with an intelligent answer the possible issue here?

Thanks! Was that so hard to do the first time? You didn't have to act like a tool to accomplish that, now did you? AND it wasn't the same at all, had you actually read the first post. Good work and good bye

I thought about this last night, if the testing is done in Cali where the weather is hot/warm, me having the JB on my car in new england will probably render a bit more fun in this cold weather. we have our hot spells during the summer but most of the year the temps are below 60, lol. tuning is always more fun in the cold! let the fmic stay cool.
