"270 Nm of Torque and 192 BHP.

The International Automobile Salon in Geneva (March 8th - 18th 2007) is the setting for the world premiere of the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit for the MINI Cooper S. From mid-2007, what is already the most powerful version of the compact premium model will be given an additional power boost under its bonnet. With the John Cooper Works Tuning Kit for the MINI Cooper S, the output of the 1.6 litre twin scroll turbo engine is increased to an impressive 141 kW/192 bhp, with maximum torque up to 250 Newton metres in the engine speed range between 1,750 and 5,000 rpm. With the overboost function, the torque level can even be increased temporarily to 270 Nm for powerful acceleration in the engine speed range from 1,750 to 4,500 rpm."

An "impressive" 192 bhp? Has anyone else noticed this?

Is there much less room for tuning after all?

Any thoughts?

Its only a Stage 1 Tuning Kit, more like a Cooper JCW Sound Kit Really. Stage 2 i guess will be more like the GP - Less Weight, More Tuned

Thanks Envy, I did look, but didn't find that thread.

I'll close this one now.
