Hello to everyone

Hi, I just picked up a 2003 MCS...electric blue with white top and mirror caps..
Been looking around for what I should get to start the modifications...

Is there an order that fits best on the R53, for upgrades?
pulleys, exhaust, intake....Just looking for some quick advice...

Thanks ahead of time.


Chris

Welcome,

I would go exhaust, intake, first.

But if you have a lot of cash to drop into your MINI I would definitely go exhaust, intake, tune (alta performance), 15%-17% pulley. Hope this helps, and here is a pretty good site for mods that I've found.

Welcome to the forum, whatever mods turn on, go for it, sequence doesn't matter.
