Getting my 2 year old JCW tuned in a few day at Bluespark who are based in North East near Sunderland.Its a plug in tuning box and is getting a full before and after Dyno and the map is tailored for my car.
My only concern is I have the JCW Pro exhaust and I am wondering if this will cause any issues with their mapping.My car is listed on their website but that will be from the standard exhaust.
Also when setting up on the rolling road do they map my car with track mode engaged or not? Surely with it engaged and the valve in open position the characteristics will change significantly regarding boost pressure etc.
Has anyone here had a remap or tuning box fitted to theirs who also have the Pro exhaust?

Forgot to mention I have used these guys before my M140 had one fitted in the summer but just sold it for the JCW.BHP was at just over 400 and torque 605 car was insanely quick.These guys are really professional highly recommended.

Thanks for the response guys getting it done tomorrow I don't think having the pro exhaust either set to track or normal will make any difference to mapping the Car.I am sure they will know best when they see it tomorrow wonder if they have the valve open when they do the Dyno runs to make the custom map.

So I just got back from Bluespark had the JCW on Dyno and tuning box set up.Results are fantastic.
Stock bhp exhaust valve closed 228bhp
Stock bhp exhaust valve open 239bhp
BlueSpark exhaust valve closed 265 bhp
BlueSpark exhaust valve open 278bhp
Stock torque exhaust valve closed 346 Nm
Stock torque exhaust valve open 355 Nm
BlueSpark exhaust valve closed 414 Nm
BlueSpark Exhaust valve open 426Nm
Car feels so much quicker more so when accelerating through the gears such as 50-70mph.Wow is all I can say this car is now epic.Really chuffed with the gains.
