Hi Den

Thanks for the little drive in yours today - that definitely makes a hell of a difference! Will certainly consider purchasing one in the near future!

wow 160 quid for a wire lol have to see the difference to warrant it but sounds like it may be worth it with all your reviews

Definately sounds like an interesting bit of kit and it is strange because I had never heard of them before!

i read about it on MINI2 and was interested because I wanted to make my car more responsive but I'm really worried about voiding the warranty. Before I took the plunge I looked on different make websites and saw that they also were raving about the difference it made to their cars, no one had any complaints or had any issues with reliability etc. Then I went back to M2 to see if anyone had developed any problems, which they hadn't. Paul C and paul/martin now have them fitted to their cars and are very happy with the results I know it doesn't look much when you see what you're getting for your £160 but once you've fitted it I guarrantee it'll put a smile on your face. I must add it doesn't increase power it increases responsiveness.

yes these little box of tricks are awesome my cooper s is so responsive now theres hardly any dip off in power between gear changes ,the only thing i can say is drive one of our cars next time we meet or if your really daring just buy one , fit it , and watch the grin get bigger and the heart race faster it also seems to smooths out the flat spot which R53 has on pull away fitment takes less than 5 minutes so go on dont eat for a month and enjoy
