To get that much horsepower you'd have to add a turbo charger to the mix.

Get in touch with 1320 Mini - Mini Parts - Mini Performance Parts

They've built some of the most powerful MINI's around, great bunch of guys who really know they're stuff when it comes to tuning.

+ they are sponsors on this forum

If you go for bigger injectors + a 'Mynes' tune to compliment your cam you'll need to get it done on a dyno, 1320 have one.

Better value for money (in my opinion ) than GT Tuning.
