Hello,

I've some questions about it.

So I have a Mini One 90hp, and I'll make an upgrate to 120hp.
Is it dangerous for my engine (motor) ?

Give me all your experience. Thank you.
It's very important.

See you,

Martin

No dangers whatsoever, the engine is the same one that's in a Cooper but detuned so go for it

Lol... hmmm

No danger ? Sure ?

Because it's a Mini One :s

My girlfriends ONE has been running MTH's 130BHP upgrade for
over 12 months now, and it totally transforms the car

No probs with the car at all

Haba what ?

130hp in a One ? And no problems at all ? How is the acceleration ?

It basically feels like a Cooper, and doesn't die above 4000rpm.
MTH's tuner file apparently is even better with more pull from lower down

the_red_skin · Sep 6th, 2005, 10:50 PM

So there are no risks with 130hp in an One ?

Morty · Sep 7th, 2005, 11:25 AM

No there ain't

I know a few Coopers, Cooper 'S' and One's in Belgium that are driving on MTH, Heinz, Superchips....
No problems at all.

I had both files from MTH on my Cooper and it's just a different car afterwards. (now running on tuner file) My friend has the normal file running on his One and he gets 126hp out of it.

the_red_skin · Sep 7th, 2005, 12:22 PM

It's a little bit strange, I think.

Because the Mini One has only 90hp at the beginning and than you can change the power from the engine with only a new "Tuning" File. You understand what I mean ?

So 30hp/40hp more only with a new software file. It's amazing

So I've no risks ?

Morty · Sep 7th, 2005, 12:51 PM

Like many have said before ... the engine of the One and the Cooper are the same and that setup (90 or 115) is mostly done through software. It's easy to bring a One towards the power of a Cooper.
So if they can tune a Cooper towards 130Hp it ain't difficult to bring the One towards 126Hp

nah I don't think you have any risks and surely not with MTH.
Warranty is void though.
If you want to keep your warranty you'll have to go Works and that costs a lot of money.

the_red_skin · Sep 8th, 2005, 09:44 AM

Thank you for your replies.

But if you have more informations, please let me know.

Merci, Danke, Dank u

400€ all in

of the french website (motorlegend), they said that this "modification" is not good for the engine.

I'm confused.

Morty · Sep 19th, 2005, 08:23 PM

I don't know .. Can't help you with that .. Désolé.
Haven't been in touch with CNM for quite a while now.

I know the French aren't really into ECU tuning by other companies except JCW.
Although I think a few of them run on MTH software.
