Quite the dangerous game you're playing with your passengers there, Karl...

..one of these days, one of them will soil themselves during a hot lap - not a good interior (or exterior, for that matter) smell for a high-performance MINI such as yours.

You're probably ok as long as they're screaming, but if they suddenly go all quiet, stiff, and petrified - you might have a problem.

All the best,
Andrew.

What sort of power gains would you be looking at if fitted with a performance cam, Viper CAI, Bluefin, Milltek Cat back and GTT Manifold?

Also how would it drive being normally aspirated, would you lose mid range torque due to larger valves and ports but gain more power higher in the revs?

Roland, do you do work on Coopers/Ones?
Ive pretty much the same spec as above and am interested in any answer to this question
