Hi there,

I am now in the stage of tuning my mini One where there is nothing else left to do but modify the cylinder head or change the Cam.

To start with im thinking of changing the cam, will i find any noticeable increase in performance?

As a fellow One modifier

, can i ask for what you have done to your ONE? Im almost getting to the stage of only having engine mods left to do. I currently have:
Pipercross induction kit
Milltek cat back exhaust
Janspeed manifold and decat
Saving for a remap

However if you look at the engine mods that lohen have done to their car, they only seem to achieve another 10bhp over exhaust and induction mods etc. Is it really worth it?

Its really hard to see big gains when you're improving a natually aspirated engine, we will be exprimenting soon but I know its going to be a very frustrating time.

We have seen gains of between 6-14 gains with an S at various stages of tune.
