So hp is the french horsepower that is metric system, then Germany had its own horsepower (ps) that is slightly different?! Do you have weaker horses than the french?!
PS seems like it should not be used in an international context. Keep you weak horses to yourself!

My kit was number 295, where are all the 294 other happy guys and girls?!

JCW Tuning Kit installed.
It now feels like a sports car. I am now the limitation, not the car

I was very disappointed driving home with the kit today. I hardly felt any difference. The Driving Excitement showed 211Hp, so something had changed at least.
Then I noticed the AC was not working. It had been disabled by the programming. The dealer fixed it straight away.
Then I drove home again, and after 60Km I was driving an monster!! WOW.
Must have been the programming resetting the car, and it had to re-learn fuelquality and other parameters.
The sound with open valve and full throttle in an tunnel...The pops are like pistol shots, I was laughing uncontrolled!

Attach some bad iPhone-photos.

Nice!
How is overboost working by the way? It is very fuzzily described.
Can I trigger it myself? How do you know it is kicking in?

I tested some full throttle runs today, and got 203hp and 280Nm as the most in the driving excitement gauge (under MINI Connected).
I wonder how correct this is? Seems to be inline with the dynos I have seen of the S, showing around 205Hp.
What do you get?
Will be interesting to see what the gauge shows after I have installed the tuning kit tomorow.

I will install tomorow. Can't wait to hear the sound!

310E. Too expensive for the small gain in looks.
How can they charge that for those silly little plastic parts?!

Before and After pictures would be very nice!
Anyone tried the Eibachs yet?

I have it ordered for my F55, and it will be installed next week, so yes it is possible.
