MINI Motorsport Centre upgrades

[Snowie]

I am running Mintex 1144 pads on the rear, no problems. When you fit these there is no place for the wear semsor so you just tie it up out of the way

On the front I am running standard R56 S pads - note the redish brake dust in the pics

Hi Snowie, did a price list ever appear

Did you get the GP to Tony and get your mods done Snowie? Would be cool to see some pics of what you had done...

Yep it was down there as planned

JCM 225 upgrade - 15 % pulley, JCM 4/2/1 manifold, sports cat, extended Lamda leads. GP rear box (from my other GP) with the flat section taken out.

Goes like a good un - I am a happy bunny.

I can not take the mod status as high on my Italian car as my UK car due to high ambient summer temperatures in Italy - 35 C is common in the summer months.

Excellent stuff - glad your enjoying it

Just got to get my money together to do the same....

My Checkmate will be down with Tony next month for a bit of tweakery as well.... so it will be great to feel the benefit of a properly fitted JCW kit on a standard Cooper S.

Mine will be upgraded to JCW 210 spec, with the 15% pulley from the JCW225 kit, and the Motorsport Cat Back. Manifold is remaining stock to try and keep it quiet That might change though once I have listened to Snowies

I did not realise Tony did the JCW 210 spec too....hmm gets me thinking

By the sounds of it your gona have a nice bit of added power, and like you say, fitted properly

Will be interesting to hear what it sounds like with just a standard mani with JCM cat back....i guess it will be awesome

Tony will tailor any package to suit your requirements, and also tell you what bits you do and don't need

Mine is running around 181bhp stock (verfied at AMD and Surrey RR) dependant on temps, so i'm looking forward to a post upgrade dyno run - and hopefully dispell the myths surrounding the JCW upgrades

That sounds like a good combo - good choice

Make sure you take pics of parts etc as the upgrade unfolds

[minicabrio]

I'll leave a camera with Tony so he can take pics at various stages

Yeah it would be great to see your JCW dispell that myth
