My Mini R59 JCW Roadster was always quick, but thanks to a Performance Pack 2 with a Stage 2 map from Lohen it is now ballistic. With 270BHP and 395Nm you sure have to hold on tight and when you hit that Sport Button the result is astonishing !

Hey! I’m considering to buy this car but not sure about he soft cover during winter/cold times. Eastern Europe has some long cold winters and I’m wondering if the soft cover makes the work just fine. Thanks! :)

Hi Pete, loving Ruby roadster. I would constantly drive in sports mode the pops and bangs let you know you're alive. I'm 55 this year and own a 2006 Cooper S R 53 with lots of Lohen goodies fitted and lots more to come. Simply great fun to drive, feel like the teenager I was. Huge 👍 for Lohen, the best out there for Mini tuning. Love the vids 🏁😁

Must be fantastic to drive, although I think the duck shoot would grate on me after 2 days. I would fit some auxiliary gauges for water temp and oil pressure. The lack of a temp gauge annoys me in my R56. I have 2 Stack gauges to fit. These are top UK made quality and the 52mm gauge fit perfectly into the fresh air vents with a cunning modification.

Variable pops and crackles is a good option, perhaps a tad too many for me, but as you highlight, there is an off mode when the mood requires it. Happy motoring, stay safe and look forward to the next instalment.

Really enjoyed a man of a certain age enjoy the pops and bangs like I do. Although in New York these BMW guys are taking the pops and bangs to an epic level where they sound like gunshot instead of a performance vehicle. Currently I have a stage 2 flash. Unfortunately I need a new turbo and my clubman is in the shop getting that installed. I also have a new intake, M7 hot and cold intake hoses, K&N intake, scorpion hi flow down pipe. My Milltek exhaust should be here by the end of the week. New Enkei wheels, Koni KYB (red) FSD shocks. Can't wait to put my car back on the dyno!! BTW i also a man of a certain age enjoying tuning my Clubby!!!

You ruddy hooligan! Nice. I would imagine it does feel significantly quicker with a third more torque. I have the pops and crackles on in my i30N when going for a country road blast but don't bother for the rest of the time. I heard one in Tesco car park the other day, popping away at 10mph and it sounded bloody stupid. Careful with suspension mods. If you go too stiff (!) then with the nature of our roads it'll have a negative effect on your fast road aspirations, as well as your back. I'm liking this mods series, keep it up.

What’s the reason for so many different maps? Wasn’t an option just to have the map engaged when sport mode is on?
@PetrolPed
@PetrolPed 5 жыл бұрын
It gives options for slightly different driving characteristics and no that wasn't an option.

@@PetrolPed Thanks for the link. I did find another video where you specifically gave driving impressions of the diff. But no mention of it in the video title. It was the video where you went through the total cost of all the modifications.

Ruby Roadster. The mobile AK47!! :-))... In sport mode, with all those pops and bangs, it's gonna be enough to scare EVERY animal within 500 yards!! It'll be interesting to know what the fuel economy is going to be like? I know people who've had "tweaks" to their cars and they virtually all say, they get better fuel economy. Also be interesting to know what the 0-60 time is. And did you do any "in-gear" testing on the "old" Ruby to compare to the new one? The 30-50, 50-70 and 30-70 tests. Great video though Pete. Nice one mate!! :-))...

Fuel economy on the motorway is about the same but when you push on she is more thirsty.I have a 0-60 on video pre mod so can do a comparison 👍

Great video. Can you tell me how the re-map affects your insurance? I have just purchased a 2019 Cooper S. I am considering a Lohen re-map as well after watching your video. Brilliant fun!
@PetrolPed
@PetrolPed 5 жыл бұрын
First thing to say is the answer to this question will depend on the driver (age, no claims etc) and the insurer. Some insurers will no allow any mods. For me my insurance increased by £40 per year !

Petrol Ped that is brilliant, thank you. Full no claims. We are in our 50’s as well. So I think it will be similar. Thanks for the quick reply. We may also order the GP like you have. No idea of cost though. Loving your videos! All the best, Lee

What are the pops and bangs? Is it trying to keep the turbo spinning? Is there a performance advantage or is it just theatre?
@PetrolPed

It is created by excess fuel being delivered and then igniting in the exhaust. It is purely for theatre 😜
