Seems that lately more and more people are getting down and dirty with their mini, power-wise. A few mentioned the idea of an official "dyno thread". Decided to start one up. While i would normally have placed this in the F56 forum, i didn't want to avoid F54/F55/F57 guys from posting up, since really, it's the same engine.
I welcome everyone to share their dyno graphs as they progress with their car. This thread should give people the opportunity to see what works (exhaust/intake/tune/downpipe/etc...) vs what doesn't (stickers). It'll also give everyone a chance to educate themselves when looking to purchase something. You should include the following in your post:
- Vehicle (Year, Make, Model)
- Modifications
- Type of Dyno
- Gear Used
- Description of Graph
- results (in case unreadable)
followed by a picture of your graph.
Feel free to add any notes regarding your post (technical difficulties, errors in dyno, future plans, etc).
Notes: my AFR's were starting off high and dropping down to 12.6. After the tune, they were able to get me down to the mid-11's. the low-end torque feels very good. i also have a JB4 but currently disconnected while i decide whether i want to do a stacking tune or just sell it.
- 2014 Mini Cooper S (Euro)
- Mods: JB4, All else stock
- Type of Dyno: Mainline Dynolog
- Gear Used: 4
- Fuel: RON95/AKI91
- Ambient Temp: 35C/95F High Humidity
- Stock baseline vs Map1 JB4
- Gains: 23WHP & 19 ft.lb
- Note: Dynolog and Mustang reads 10%-15% lower than Dynojet. Will post Baseline VS. Map1 VS. Map2 next.
great numbers! happen to have a before dyno before all the work?
Don't have stock dyno here but it was around 178whp. Right within specs from factory.
Putting flex wires on Tuesday and taking to dyno for fine tuning. Bear in mind our Brazilian Podium gas has 95 octane along with 25% Ethanol on gas. So should be around 105-110 octane. That helps a little for higher output.

What octane rating system do they use in Brazil? Is it MON, RON or AKI? The US uses AKI which is the average of MON and RON.
Also rating of 95 octane with 25% ethanol is still 95 octane (of which ever rating system that is being used).
This is the dyno gragh from the JCW (w/ Auto tranny). We ran this JCW on the Mustang Dyno in AWD mode b/c we didn't want to put the car into "dyno mode".
Modifications:
2015 Factory JCW Auto
Factory resonator removed.
2 gallons of E85 mixed with a full tank of 91 Octane;
Bytetronik (BT) Stage 1 Flash;
Everything else stock
Power Output to the wheels (Not BHP!): OEM Stock: 231 WHP / 248 WTQE BT Stage-1 Flash: 276 WHP / 326 WTQE (~442NM)
Gains: +45 WHP; +78 WTQE
Dyno pulls were all done on the same day within 30 minutes of one another. Outside temperature was about 80-degrees Fahrenheit.
Parameters Adjusted:
Raised Speed limiter (VMAX)
Fuel Pressure raised
Target Lambda optimized
Clutch torque optimized
Optimum torque optimized
Torque monitors optimized
Schubblurbben (burble) parameters optimized for more bangs and pop
Race start (launch control) start temperature modified

No tuning done yet. Factory Map.
As there are many differences between dyno's, humidity, temperature, altitude, etc.... It is important to look at solely delta numbers.
Here are a few different dynos I have done on my F56.

On a very cold night. It will slightly start to slip. I can tell by hearing it but the RPM's barely reflect it. Looking at performance clutches and doesn't seem to be anything in the market really.

I was afraid of that. All I see is kits from brands I've never heard of that no one seems to have.
Just for the record, we think the Torque reading on this DynoJet is reading a little bit off. As much as we would like to claim the 373WTQE since it's our tune, our map is only targeting around 400NM (or roughly 295 to 300 ft-lb of torque). The "delta" in HP and Torque are in line with our testing results.
