08 mini

Hello everyone thank you for taking the time to read this. I will first start off with saying I'm new to the mini game. I have ran multiple BMW in auto cross and I love the feeling of all motor so I wanted to do something different I want to do a n/a mini for autocross I know many will say I should do an S but I love the response of a n/a car what upgrades should I purchase first motor and ecu wise. I will be doing a lot of suspension work I would like to get somewhere close to 130+whp. Please and thank you for your help.

I have been insanely happy with my DDM Intake, D1 spec, and NM torque arm insert. It's like a whole new car.

Nice

Now I'm a machinist by trade and my buddy is a welder we were looking into doing a header. The thing we are looking at is well the obx one might just be as cheap or maybe slightly more money than us building one but the headache most likely will not be worth it. Can you send me links and such and have you dunk your car or tracked it before !
