I just completed my State 1: Tuning for my Cooper S 2005

- Alta CAI
- Alta 15% Pulley
- Alta Exhaust

I am thinking of remaping my ECU to reach maximum performance of the following modification.

Any advice on ECU modification (software remap) which tuning house doest it?

If I want to increase oil ignition power, which one should I use and how many CC for each head?

Cool. Can I have your opinion and a few words of how differently the S runs with those mods you have just done? I was thinking about doing the same exact thing if I get an S. Thanks!

With my 2005 Cooper S Manual transamition.
I can feel the acceleration of the car improvement during 40 KM/H to 100 KM/H in 2nd gear / 3rd gear (at approx 4.5K to 5K RPM)

The Alta Exhaust does a good job at high speed 140Km/h up to 180 Km/h. And the sound wasn't that loud compare to my previous "Play MINI" Exhaust. (I took Play MINI Exhaust off because of the noise)

I don't feel much different after install Alta CAI. (First modification I did)

Overall; the performance does increase to around 10% to 15%. I plan to take my car for a Dyno test next week. To see increase in HP.

Next step is to increase performance around Ignition System.

Great, thanks! Be sure to let me know what you dyno'ed at. I'd love to find out!

I recommend the Evotech reflash. They tailor it to your car mods and it can be changed as you add further mods. Added 20Hp [+178 US wheel horsepower] and lots torque to my '05 MCS. PM me for an email of my dno chart [file is too big for posting].

Please note that this test result from the wheels not from the engines. I will go for Dyno test again. Should get more HP.
