1. First I don't think MINI/BMW thought we will would be extracting this much power out of these 1.6 liters with that supercharger for one.

2. Now if someone have told you, or even yourself have went through the code, then you would see why you would want to have a bigger injector to keep the milliseconds (pulsewidth) down and what it affects other parameters.

3. Do you understand about injector pulse and how much time you have to inject fuel at 6000 RPM compared to 2000 RPM. Do you know the max pulsewidth to inject fuel at 85 percent duty cycle at 6000RPM? Trust me, looking at 380-to 450cc are the edge if any other compensations have to kick in at 6000 RPM due to Air temp and Knock correction.

4. A tip for you and everyone, once you pulsewidth reaches to abot 19.4 ms (milliseconds) the ECU goes and lookup another routine and it affect ignition timing and you would notice the engine starts to lean out at higher RPMs. With 550cc scaled properly it's close to that (ms) and the ECU doesn't even lookup that function in the first place.

So you can take this post as a negative or a positive. It's your choice.
This deserves to be bumped. I doubt you will get an answer before he consults some people but its worth a shot

This thread seems to have lost it's ability to be effective, epanarese, if you've got some specific questions feel free to fire off PMs or start new threads accordingly, but this one is done.

If you want to call it a pissing contest, then that's all on you. We were simply sharing our knowledge on why the 550cc are used.

Anybody can put parts on their MINI. To do it just b/c you can without questioning why is pure 'ignorance', but to understand why that's being done is called knowledge.

We don't know everything, but we know more than some but not as much as some... and we're here to share and learn at the same time. If you don't like the info being presented here, then simply put us on 'ignore' b/c we're not here to please anyone...

Just my 2 cents... n pls do keep the change, you'll thank me later
