Boosting HP

Hi everyone.
I've had my Mini S since last August. I found one with "The Works" and had to have it. It has alot of grunt for a little car. I'd like to add a bit more HP to it without compromising this high-revving motor. Any rev-heads out there with any suggestions?

Cheers

Check out the modifications forum:

You should read through some of the stickies to get a better feel for your options, but there is great aftermarket support for the R53 MCS and people have gotten a lot out of them through bolt-on mods.

I'd recommend focusing on breathing mods (intake, exhaust) or getting an aftermarket supercharger pully (by far the best bang for the buck). Enjoy, and don't forget that the mod bug is highly contagious!
