You think an ECU remap will add 15 hp? I'd say the spark plugs and filter most likely add nothing. Is there something else with the kit I'm missing?

Maybe it can....I just took my 03 MC to the dealer for it's last service check-up and they remapped the ECU with the latest factory upload. Not sure what it was called, but my MC is smoother and seems a bit quicker than it's ever been. This was a free upload because I complained of a cold-start stumble.

Yeh the figures seem a a bit out tbh. Reading about the Bluefin its 10BHP Increase.
Why do you need revised sparkplugs anyway?

Anyone from Lohen here to put some light on this, as im after this kit too (i think).

What would these mods do to BHP of a cooper? (am i correct in my assumptions??)

Bluefin - 10 BHP
Sparkplugs - 0BHP
Induction Kit - 3BHP
Mainford - 10BHP? Whats the benefit of a revised manifold?
Exhuast - 5 BHP?

Sig Coming Soon..
