Cooper S fuel Pump on Cooper

Hi!

I had a problem with my fuel pump and it needed replacement... In this exact moment it's being changed for a mini cooper S fuel pump.

I talked to a bmw engineer and he told me that the cooper f.pump works with 3 bars and the mini cooper s 3.5 bars.

Am i going to notice performance increase?

Need to remap ecu?

A list of my car mods(engine) for help...


KN panel Filter
NGK Iridium
Mth Remap(tuner file)
Cat removal
Cooper S 6spd gearbox...(163bhp)
Mini Cooper S throtle body

When the car was remaped i only had the kn panel filter...

Time for a new remap?

Thanks..

not yet...

But i notice a difference... but only at high rpms.. at low rpms.. all the same..

Of course that i've put a new filter(a clean one) so that helped with the performance maybe!
