Mild tuning suggestions
Discussion
Hi all.
The OH has an R53 absolutely standard at the moment. Looking to do a few mods to make it a bit more fun.
A quick Google suggests a smaller pulley, remap and exhaust is the done thing ( I have spent my time fiddling with Subarus so dont know Minis).
who are the recommended companies to deal with? which products to go for etc.
If we got it up to about 200bhp are thing slike the gearbox or bottom end going to fall apart or are they safe like this? its on about 60k at the mo.
Thanks for any help.

I'd advise on changing the supercharger oil before you reduce the supercharger pulley.

The engine and gearbox will easily take 200bhp, especially with 60k.
1320 or Lohen are good specialists, but are quite far from you.

Go on mini torque., great forum.
1320 mini are meant to be great, orranje sell parts, loads of tuners.
15% pulley, orranje stealth air box (basically a dave f) cold plugs and belt will set you back around £250 and will give decent gains, best bang for buck.
Above 15% pulley, you need a bigger top mount inter-cooler.
Injectors, exhaust etc. to follow, then cams etc.
