MINI GP Gone Wrong

I’ll start off by saying great customer service but when it comes to owning the rarest mini of all “ John Cooper works mini gp” these guys had no idea about the tune to use and it caused my engine to blow .
Now I’m not mad and this is defiantly not a hate review as i have all the money and time that I’ll ever need to have my car fixed . Which is already done by ordering a new engine . But if money was an issue for people and you owned one of these extremely rare minis don’t let m7 throw a tune on it because the GP is much different then any other JCW Cooper . The engine is the same but has a much higher compression rate then the regular JCW . Wrong tune blew my engine I’m close friends with RPM performance who are the king of tunes and without question this is the reason for the blown engine every after submitting my VIN number to M7 and they stated that they had the proper tune for the performance parts going into it . RPM took one look at the tune that was applied and laughed . Like i said I’m not mad or trying to bash these guys but they wouldn’t admit any fault ( which we expected ) the bottom line is , they have never worked or even probably seen a JCW GP edition mini and i truly hope to god they never get the chance to assist in one again , for the owners sake .

M7 Speed has installed hundreds of Manic Tunes over the last four years with 100% satisfied customers and zero failures but sooner or later a problem will arise. To clarify the misinformation reported by the customer;

- A MINI GP uses the EXACT same engine and components as a standard JCW MINI. This can be verified by comparing MINI OE engine part numbers and technical manuals.
-The statement that a GP has a much higher compression ratio is false. Turbocharged MINI engines all have very low static compression ratios (approx. 8.0:1). Final compression ratios are dynamic and are dictated by the boost pressure supplied to the engine from the turbocharger.
-The factory engine control software for a GP is the same as a JCW. The only control difference is the GP uses the load table from a Countryman. Otherwise it’s identical to a JCW. This is verified by the software code read from the DME. When we receive a MINI DME to reflash we read the Software ID code and compare it to our database. The Manic Stage 2 Manic Tune which matches the OE software code is uploaded. The system is foolproof allowing only matching codes to be uploaded. The unit sent to us had had factory JCW software installed and NOT a GP software file. From our understanding the DME sent to us was not the original unit, but a replacement unit which explains the software ID to vehicle mismatch.
-RPM Motorsports is a very good shop and we send many customers to them who have DME’s that are mismatched, damaged or need to be replaced. They repair DMEs and ECUs for many different vehicles. They do not performance tune engines and they do not specialize in only MINIs. Please visit their website (https://www.rpmmotorsport.net)
-Engine failure can be caused a many different problems. Both stock engines and tuned engines all fail from a myriad of problems. Visit your local MINI dealer’s parts room and count the number of broken engines that are being returned to MINI under warrantee. The number one failure for the N14 & N18 Generation 2 engines is broken pistons caused by detonation and broken timing chains caused by excessive wear and inadequately designed OE parts. Detonation can be a result of overheating, over-boosting, improper and mismatched aftermarket components, poor grade-low octane fuel and carbon buildup on the intake valves and piston tops.

100% customer satisfaction is M7 Speed’s Number 1 Mission. This is documented by the large number of 100% satisfied customers who have given us hundreds of 5 star reviews. We also pride ourselves in providing technically accurate information to help our customers gain maximum performance and pleasure from their cars.
M7 Speed is a Manic Motorsports authorized reseller of Gen 2 MINI performance tunes.

Manic Motorsports who develops and controls all the reflash software and vehicle specific tune files has sold tens of thousands of these tunes worldwide. They know MINI performance and completely understand the power threshold the Gen 2 engine can safely and reliably handle. They tune to these limits, being very conservative not to exceed the maximum power threshold of this lightweight 1.6 liter engine.

High Quality and Flawless Communication/Transaction!

Recently worked with Dorie to order a intake for my Countryman. By far the smoothest interaction and transaction with a site I've had. Everything was done with the highest regards to professionalism and to make our side happy as well.

The product (M7 MAXX-Flo Intake) was quickly shipped and we couldn't be happier. High quality craftsmanship as well as clear installation instruction. Had the intake for about a week and have noticed better airflow, spooling, and throttle response. Able to hear the blow off valve at low boost now! Definitely will order through M7 again!

Great parts, fantastic people! Repeat buyer over several years!

For the past two years, I have been tinkering with my 2009 Mini Cooper S Clubman by adding performance parts. After lots of searching, I decided to give the people at M7 Speed a shot, and I could not be happier with everything. To date, I have installed the following parts from M7 - M7 Speed MAXX-Flo intake, M7 Turbo heat shield, M7 turbo charge pipe, M7 Oil Catch Can, NGK Iridium Plus spark plugs (standard temp), and a Milltek decat downpipe. In addition, I sent ECU (the car's brain) to M7 for ECU flash tuning (Manic Motorsports Stage 2 tune). Any time I have needed help or guidance, they have been extremely supportive. In particular, sending the ECU 100's of miles away via FedEx was nerve wracking, but Mark at M7 explained the entire process and provided insights after the new ECU was installed to make my Mini a monster of a motoring machine - exactly what I wanted. I always check M7 first for my performance part needs!

Truly an awesome group and Great Customer Service. Had an issue with a Turbo Heat Shield order and Dorie came to the rescue!! Great Customer Service and constant communication! Have ordered several items from M7 including a Oil Catch Kit and the Chromed Strut Tower Brace and truly great products. M7 is a must for anyone wanting to modify their Mini to where it truly needs to truly be. Tom R.

Amazing customer service

I am in the Sales/Customer Service roll at my work and pride myself on how I act with customers and build relationships. I have talked and dealt with several Employees at M7 over the last 2 years and every one of M7 staff members have been great and went above and beyond. Our Local MINI club even had our yearly picnic event and M7 even drove 1.5 hrs to come out to it with there latest demo ride. Everyone at our picnic was talking about there work and there parts. I will continue to use M7 as my first choice for any parts for my MINI Cooper.

To M7 staff keep up the good work...

Thanks,
A Loyal Customer

M7 & My Countryman

I have ordered quite a few things from M7 for my R60. I can say every interaction with Bill, Dorie, Mark, and Alan have been nothing but outstanding. I have ordered parts and a tune, and can say without a doubt I would and have recommended M7 to Mini friends, and family. Issues I have faced have been addressed well above and beyond anything I could have imagined. When ever I have had any questions I can just call and get the info I need and i don't feel like a number.

The best! (In Borat voice)

Seriously though, the customer service was incredibly responsive when I had a question, then actually honest about getting my parts out right away, which I greatly appreciated. The stage 1 kit for my gen 2 MINI Cooper S Countryman was as advertised and worth every smile I get taking it out. I'll be buying more from you guys in the near future to widen my smile.

Scuttled

OK the title was just to get your attention. I ordered the M7Carbon Fiber oil catch can and the turbo shield. What wonderfully made and machined products that look better under the hood of my Cooper S than the original equipment there. They neglected to throw the hoses in the box for the oil catch can and when I called they immediately got them in the mail and I received them two days later! Perfect fit in every way. The turbo shield obstructs your ability reinstall the plastic cover around the oil filler cap. I cut the OEM cover down with my band saw easily since the plastic is rather soft and not brittle at all. It now looks as if the turbo cover were a part of the original equipment.

Not only do you get excellent equipment with M7 their product peoples response is all in your favor. I will take any of them out for a craft beer if they come to my town.

stage 2 kit and vortex scoop

I would like to start off by saying a+ and the reasoning for that is, I open the box the parts were in. The way m7 packed the parts in box was very neat and put in with care. I am a big car guy and have order a lot of parts thu out the years, also being a business owner the little things like that go a long way with me. Now, for the parts. The quality of the parts are well built and fit nicely for a very easy install. The kit also works nicely, releases up the air flow and helps with the performance of the mini, I look forward to deal with m7, take up the good work thanks rob

great product, fitment was a little off but gray to look at.

Item shipped fast and in great packaging. All necessary hardware. Given website instructions for install. Fitment was a little off, had a curve in the ball that was to exaggerated and had to torque down rear bolts to fit flush. Overall I'm pleased with the quality, ease of install and looks. There should be no doubt about purchasing this item.
