The Mini Cooper S 1.6L supercharged engine brought Mini back to life in 2001. This pocket rocket packed 163hp from its front wheel drive platform. Weighing in at around 2400lbs, this became quite a popular tuner car for the street and track. With so many mods to do to gain better performance, an ECU flash is at the top of the list. The supercharged engine can gain more ponies to give you better torque and pull through out the RPM band. Flashing the Mini is all done via the OBDII port with our iFlash system as seen here. You read out the stock calibration and send it in to us. We then make an updated tune for you which is sent back to be flashed to the vehicle. The process is very simple. Our customer Joshua wrote a review on his experience below.

The throttle response even feels faster and I know it is much faster on the big end. I also wanted to mention, that when I first received my flash Kit My ECU was coded with the wrong VIN number which caused the cable not to recognize the Vehicle but Dan was determined to make it happen, his customer service was outstanding and he fixed the issue as fast as humanly possible. I just wanted to thank Vivid racing and Dan for making my MINI and my experience with Vivid Racing simply Awesome! “ Leave a Reply Cancel ReplyYou must be logged in to post a comment.
