Any help with gaining extra HP??

[AerokitScot69]

Wondering if anyones has found any good methods of boosting Hp on a mini one?? Got the inductions kit on it but thats all, has anyone any experience with chipping or that??

I'm sure Martin Sullivan will be along shortly praising the MTH Power mod - or the AMD one-click system - both will put the ONE's bhp up to circa 130+ - only diff is the AMD one-click is 6 times the price of MTH but doesn't require a laptop and special lead like the MTH does.

My mini one has been errmmmmm 'modified' ;)

my MINI ONE has undergone a few (ok ok i'll admit - alot!) of changes since it was born 1 year 5months and 8 days ago (sad i know that but its even sadder when i admit that both my MINI and I share our birthdays!) anyway...back to thread topic...

BHP increases for ONEs...A lot of people are undergoing the MTH ECU remap which is real value for your £pennies. Induction kits are quite common and 'can' boost BHP (depends on which you get really!) Aftermarket exhuasts are good for BHP increases as well - there are a multitude of options to be honest. Although ONEs have a rough limit to how much power the inner-workings can handle so you have to watch.

Where can i see about gettin the MTH remap and how much is it? will this put alot of presssure on the engine components at high revs? i dont wanna be having to replace ppiston rings and sh*t!

I drove Helen's nephews tuned Mini One several times and it was quick :D Janspeed exhaust, K&N and ECU remap at Falkland performance centre. Rolling road printout showed it had 130bhp. We, erm, "tested" :I it against my last Cooper a few times and it was identical acceleration (more bhp but higher gearing in the One) but I could pull away a little from him in the corners due to my sports suspension (both cars on 15" alloys).
Go for it - it really transformed his Mini One and made it even more fun to drive :p:D
