Did they get those numbers using only CA 91 octane? The only thing keeping me from turning up the JB+ to max is there is no E85 near me. 
I'm going to start reading the entire thread and get more info on this, this is very intriguing, and I only live about 100 miles south of SF. Will be worth the trip if it can turn my JCW into beast mode. lol

I don't have stage 2 per say but can get you some logs over the next few days. In the midst of setting up my spray kit now. I will log with and without spray in manic map 'B' and 'C'.

Timing
With my Manic stage 2 tune on 91 octane I see a maximum of 11 degrees by redline.
When I run the stage 2 tune on Map C for 100 octane the car makes 14 degrees by redline.
On my JB+ at 100% using 100 octane fuel the car would only hit about 9 degrees max by redline.
So the Manic tune is definately worth it.
Hope that helps.

That looks promising. I'm glad Cerenkov requested this info. As of right now timing is the only factor we have to base results on unless we have the cash to throw at Dynos...
The highest my MINI has ever seen is +8deg with the JB+. I've never went higher than 80%. But from your test run at 100% w/100 octane, it Seems that being our mods are similar, the only way to get to the next level of power, while allowing the DME to remain happy, is to Op for a Manic Tune😬

Posting this from the EuroTech thread for MANIC tuning in AZ. I wasn't aware of this and wanted to post it here in case others didn't know. A good bit of info:
We can bench flash if ship your ecu in. It's actually a longer process than one would think. Nick at manic actually builds all tunes via email based on each customers requests. On the N18 it's actually 3 flashes at 35 minutes each to get the switchable maps installed. Once you have the files from Nick who's still in the UK. In some cases they don't have that particular ecu unlocked and requires opening ecu for manual boot download which takes 2 hours. Then Nick can build your map. In other words it's not always as fast as you would think. We have limited time windows of communication due to time differences.

Nice, I will send you good thoughts for nice cool weather. What fuel combos, merh, race gas, Torco....etc?

I will be interested to hear of your results. We have a similar setup (including auto) minus the turbo. My turbo makes a lot of heat, so would like to see it in stock turbo/meth form.
