Thumbs down Loss of power- Mini Cooper S Works!!!

Well, another problem yet again...
It's been some time that my Cooper S Works kinda feels sick..
I've mentioned this once to my dealer but he then said that the diagnostics show no malfunction, everything was OK and i shouldn't worry..
I couldn't prove (BUT I CAN FEEL IT)that the car has a power loss so i left the garage!
It's been a month since then and things are getting worst..
First of all at 3000rpm and up the car sounds like a WRC one..
Which should be good if the power had the same hype but it doesn't!
I mean that bearing in mind that i only use 99ron fuel i cant find a reason why my car has developed that sound and most important why my car has a top speed of 210-220km(THAT PROVES THE POWER LOSS)!
The car is suffering from a harmonic balancer issue too but this sound i'm telling you is something different.
Problem with dealers is that they kinda trust the diagnostics more than their brains..
What i mean by that is that even though the diagnostics show no malfunction, as long a car has such a power loss (TOP SPEED OF 210-220Km ON A WORKS MINI) i think they should trust their knowledge and brains more than the diagnostics..


So i'm asking, has anybody faced the same problems and did you find a solution for that?
Thanx in advance,
i appreciate any helping answer on this issue..

P.S sorry for my bad English...
