Hi, My name is neil , from Quebec , Canada. I drive a JCW Mini 2004 in the summer time and a XTerra Nissan for three seasons.
I would like know how improve the performance of my JCW Mini and keep the Mini warranty &
What about Chip ( ECU ) ?
2006 MCS
Dark Silver w/ white roof
Premium package
Cold weather package
Nav
6 Speed Steptronic
Boot net
Harman/Kardon uprated sound
I don't plan to mod this vehicle beyond a stubby antenna.
Alpine White
DREI EIS
Another Pepper Mini:
2003 Pepper White MINI Cooper
Black top and mirrors
Cold pkg
Sport pkg
6-spd Steptronic
Upgraded 5-spoke rims
Lip Spoiler in back (Black of course)
This Fall: Black off-center stripe (Right side)
Smoked running lights
Black out kit
Turbo charger(?)
Milltek Sport Exhaust system
The only problem? The owner before me was a yuppy woman from the rich suburbs, she had the chip downgraded so the car shifts at 4000 in auto instead of 2000. Yeah.. it sucks. I'm working on an ECU Revamp and getting that reversed.
I totally forgot to do this!
My car.
2006 MINI Cooper S
6-Speed
16% reduced supercharger pulley
CAI
comp. rear sway bar
lowering springs
tint
LSD
mesh grills on the front
removed and painted the side grills on the A panel black
denso iridium plugs
17" Rota Sub Zeros - flat black with custom red lip painted to match body color
215/45 17 Falken GR Beta 415's
A few factory bits are the panoramic sunroof, heated seats, Harmon Kardon sound system, fogs lights on the front and rear, power everything, anthracite interior and headliner that makes the entire inside of the car nearly black
Last dyno put me at about 190 at the crank, that was before the CAI though so I'd guess about 197-200 now. Not bad for a 2500 lb car
Much more to come. Next on my list are bigger brakes, exhaust and software upgrade. And of course... track time!
(I snagged this one from someone I know, great pic though, the color was better than in mine)
The MINI I am driving now is :
2002 S - Electric Blue, white roof, premium pak, 17" MINILITE wheels with bridgestone s 03s, nad lots of mods.
I am selling it to get a GP with the works.
Best motoring,
Peter

This allowed me to purchase the Cooper and a restored 1959 Austin Healey Bugeye. Got to go with the Brits....but miss the Coupe.
Well, I still have my Coupe, and tomorrow will be driving my new 06 MINI Cooper S John Cooper Works GP Kit #1636 !

Hey all...
New MINI owner since their introduction, on my second (05) after the first (02) was flooded. Had my deposit down before the dealership was open for business - before there were even cars!
I'm on most of the other MINI boards but just signed up here because I've been thinking about picking up a 2002 to fiddle with, and wanted to get more info. The 05 is great fun, and it's been pretty well modified, but I have the itch for something vintage, something a little simpler.
At any rate, here are the specs:
2005 MCS
