If you want to start boosting it up youve probably bought the wrong car being an auto, you need a manual shift.

My wife can't drive manual transmission, so you saying there's no hope or aftermatket parts for an auto?

No, thats just the usual ill informed information drivel you get on internet forums.

You can get a JCW stage 1 kit for the Cooper S Auto, and all other tuning forms (ecu tuning, exhaust, filters) apply.
