Mini Cooper S ‘05 + John Cooper Works (JCW) 210hp Package +other modifications
- Mini Madness JCW intake filter kit (+flap mod)
- JCW catback flat section removal
- GTT Exhaust Manifold
- GTT +3% Overdrive Crank shaft pulley
- GTT Modified bypass valve
- GTT Intercooler + Snoot boots
- Custom ECU tune

=> Avg of best test pairs: 6.6s (measured with G-Tech using the speed chart feature).

OK, new improved time. Best pair average: 6.20s. Not thrilling, but starts to be in the right ball park with other benchmarks:

Jaw_F430 : 6.05 (05gb,15%,Bigger I/C +other mods)
BigShow : 6.075 (03gb, Lohen 225, manifold)
Edenalig : 6.15 (02gb, 15%, MTH, Alta CAI, Manifold, Miltek)

Improvement might be due to colder temperature (-2.5C) or lighter car (1/3 tank vs full tank)...or then BMW accidentally fixed some problems while playing around with my car (and officially not finding any faults).

Note. Both tests are with heavy 205/45/17 winter runflat tyres and OZ Superturismos. I presume that with my 215/40/17 F1s and Ultraleggeras the time might still improve a notch.
