Your claims are founded and backed up by results. I ordered the Thorton performance chip for my 2014 Mini Cooper, S countryman on Wednesday this week, and I received it Friday. That’s amazing in itself since I live on the West Coast.
I was excited to give it a try right away. I have a 21 mile combined city highway loop between two close coastal cities. I drove it before the the Thorton tuning chip arrived at 8:30 AM and my result was exactly 30 miles per gallon. The chip arrived at 1:15 pm, that same day. Installed in seconds and I was off and running on the 21 mile loop. Then, after only 27 minutes from installation, I received the result of 33 miles per gallon based upon exact conditions and travel parameters. I’m really excited. Can’t wait to see what will happen after 100 to 125 miles after installation. I will definitely keep you in the loop. I am quite the sold and lifetime customer of your products and services. Thank you from the bottom of my heart for producing such a fine product for my Mini Cooper S Countryman 1.6 L turbo.
Last week, or so, I wrote a review of your level 3 chip in my MINI (2017 Cooper Convertible 3 cylinder). In it I stated that I received results that far exceeded expectations. I’m sending the screenshot of my info screen so you’ll know I wasn’t making it up. My plan now is to try it on trips in the Mid and Sport range (I can watch the gas gauge drop in Sport mode) to see how much improvement I can obtain there. Thanks again for what has been and is an exciting addition to my driving experience. By the way, just put the order in for a chip for the wife’s 2023 Cooper S.
I purchased the level 3 chip for my 2017 MINI Cooper, 3 cylinder, in July. The wife and I attended MINI On The Mack, St. Ignace, MI the first weekend of August. For us, from Delaware, it was approximately 905 miles each way. Using the vehicle computer, the best mpg we’ve ever gotten was 34.2 mpg in eco mode which I thought was great. Driving to MI as it was remapping the ECU we had attained 39.5 mpg. Returning home we registered 944 miles from St. Ignace, MI to Lewes, DE over three days, mostly at speeds in excess of 70 mph. When I checked the trip info screen it indicated that we had obtained an astonishing 43.9 mpg. Considering the MINI uses premium fuel, that result was phenomenal! Just wish I knew about the chip earlier. Screenshot of info screen available on request. I’m telling all of my MINI Cooper friends about your chip. I’ll be ordering one for the wife’s 2023 Cooper S.
I purchased the level three. I have seen the gains but will I see some more in sport mode or will it be the same in mid as well in sport modes. 2016 mini cooper!
I have a 2012 Clubman 4 cyl stick shift and feel the extra horse power and am very pleased with it so far, gas mileage has gone up, I will be ordering one for my wife’s 2011 BMW 328 and another one for my daughters truck.
Thank you so much for your continued use of our product, Chris!
