I sent them a message on Facebook and ask if they had a tune ready for my 2013 FJCW and this was the response i got. So........ still no real answer?
Hi, Yes I have an 1 month old JCW myself We can tune this via OBD so no ECU removal.
We are considering coming to Canada in 2014, we just need to hunt out some suitable shops for the Mini Product line, if you can recommend anyone please feel free. That may help speed up the process.

BTW BurgerTuning.com holds the world records for fastest 135i, 335i, 535i, 550i and now the M5/M6.
I would have sold my GP if I wasn't able to tune in that week. You guys are much more patient than me.

Vivid looks pretty good because they can do custom tuning for you. But you have to provide them with dyno numbers and all the data logs. Not bad. I'm looking at DNA tuning and Vivid as possible suitors. Terry says he's not looking to produce the JB4 or some sort for the MINI. So I decided not to wait since he has no plans with that, especially with the newer models coming out for BMW this year. He's gonna be a busy guy.

As eager as I want a tune, I feel like I should wait for Manic's tune. I could probably sent my ECU to NM right now but I feel like I would regret it later when Manic does come out. I want a tune where I can move up the Stages. Manic offers Stage 1-4. Not sure if any other tuner would be able to support a Hybrid Turbo Setup or EFR Turbo setup, along side with cylinder head. Manic seems like the only company that would do what I want for the Mini. Waiting sucks now, but I'm just not trying to regret it.

I gave up on them since I found a custom tune with DNA. Very great price too so I can't wait to order that after March 8th. I'll give Manic till then to have something posted at least about their plans. They said it would be a few weeks last I spoke to them, but it's been way past that.

Cool let us know how it goes. Once Battle/DNA is able to tune n18's via the OBD2 port I'll order that day.

So one of my Audi buddies heard me talk about Manic and he told me this. The revo platform of hardware which does their software also leave residual code. So that if another tuner goes to tune it bricks the ECU; a common complaint hes seen on many VW and Audi forums...
