200BHP Cooper!

Anyone seen Cool New's newsletter about their forthcoming turbo kit for the Cooper? Supposed to push BHP to 200!!

The thing that interests me is the Frount Mount intercooler... if they can make on fit a Cooper OK, why does no-one make a front mount for the MCS??

Cheers,

The only thing their kit doesn't come with that you might need is the paper shredder for your warranty and a broom and dustpan for sweeping what's left of your gearbox off the road!

Oh, fair enough then. But you may want to change the title of the thread.

All I was suggesting was that you'll get responses that are more on the topic you are interested in in all of this than mine or LMB's if you change the title. Sorry if I offended you.

Does the air slit in the S bonnet really do much? If so, would the turbo kit for the Cooper not require an S bonnet too?

Also, a new gearbox, Cooper S pistons and crank would be needed so it all doesn't go t*ts up, right?

There is some parrallel stuff under discussion that folks might want to read about including gearboxs etc in a similar thread.

Turbo Charged Mini Cooper + ONE = 240Bhp!!!

The whole concept is an interesting one. Turbo Cooper (or One) versus Supercharger S
