I partially disagree with the last post. Take porsche 911 turbo's for example, whilst being a Porsche and engineered by the best people in the world, they are still subject to emissions, durability etc etc. I had two of them and both were remapped. It was night and day. Out of the box, they were fast but dull and boring. Once remapped, they were like different cars. Millenium falcon response and acceleration.
The aspect where i agree is that the i8 engined is already highly strung and the car is already very responsive out of the box. Personally i never felt the need. I did explore the possibility though but since any tune will only affect the ICE, i thought it would be a/ dangerous and b/ marginal gains.
In my mind the best way to proceed would be to scout Mini forums since this is the same engine and these have been tuned for years sometimes very successfully.
For me and despite my taste for very fast cars, the i8 is really well resolved as is.
