Just picked up a 2012 Countryman All4 and was wondering where to go with initial performance upgrades. I was looking at going with an air intake system first, but after reading on here the consensus seems to be just get a better filter and call it a day. Next I’m thinking an intercooler and new piping. What direction after that should I head in? Exhaust? Which one is best? Tune? Other upgrades?
Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

 

You are correct an air intake wouldn't be an ideal mod as it usually looses power as it just sucks hot air from the engine compartment.

Going with a larger intercooler would for sure be the best first mod as it cools the air after the turbo to actually gain power.

We also do our res delete pipe with it

Then I would actually go with a larger rear sway bar as it will really reduce the body roll and improve the handling.

Thanks, I hadn't even thought about the sway bar as an imidiate improvement.

 

a sprint booster and JB+ were my first two, both well worth it.

 

I think a hi-flow filter and sway bar are great ideas for first mods. Personally, next I would consider a torque arm bushing insert to help get the power to the ground better. And a sprint booster helps too, the two together really help with squishiness of the initial take off.
Then you will probably want more power! A JB+ or NM Power Module are nice little booster boxes for plug and play power increase, and when that’s not enough anymore you will be looking at an ECU remap for better performance. Mariokart on here is my guy for that! He is a good dude, and I’m a happy customer.

 

I'm about to pick up an R60, so glad this thread exists!

 

Awesome! Good luck, and post some photos when you get it. I absolutely adore mine

 

Congrats on the Countyman. I have my 350hp Countyman AWD manaul.
I have tuning and lots of go fast parts
