Where can I find good aftermarket parts for my Mini Cooper
what kind of stuff are you looking for?
Motoring Underground has a pretty awesome Yellow Pages for all kinds of things including a listing of aftermarket companies based on what they sell.....check it out
awesome thanks. im just looking for some stuff to basically up the hp and overall performance of my regular cooper. ive been told the cooper s is the best way to go but ive always been known by my firends to go different routes than other people when it comes to tuning my cars and i pride myself on that. so i guess what im looking to do is build a regular cooper thats quick

I've been looking all over the place and can't find an N-1 style exhaust for my Cooper...Anyone know a place I can order an N1 style exhaust?
I'm not completely sure what an N1 style exhaust is....but a google image search suggests that you mean one of the big potato shooting ricer exhausts? (below)
If that's what you mean....the magnaflow Cooper exhaust looks like that.
magnaflow eh? well, i bet it sounds good with that silencer taken out. cool. all the places i looked had magnaflow exhausts but didn't have pictures so now i know. thanks!

I'd be curious to see how a RMW 2.0L "stroker" would work in a Cooper (non-S) application... I could see that possibly putting out some decent numbers while keeping a stealth appearance...
Definitely won't be cheap, though...

Is th general concensus on the lightweight crank pulley doesn't do much for the N/A cooper? I was looking at that mod and felt it may be worth the $150 pricetag.
