This is True HP Mods.. the difference being that this is on a Mustang Dynometer - Brake Dyno (Variable Load), Compared to a Dyno Meter which is a single load system (not real world conditions).

The intake alone made 6-7 hp on the Dyno Meter tested by Randy @ Webb Motorsports.

This dyno is more of what you would really experience, compared to Manufacturers claims.

Thanks
Dan

Depends on the brand of intake that you have... If you have a Pilo, I can give you deal for this sale.

Thanks,

I just got around to installing the following from Pilo Racing:
Pilo Racing 40,000 Volt Coil Pack
8.5 mm Race Wires (25 ohm)

For any skeptics out there, this is truly a great upgrade to the MINI. There is not a feeling of more power, it is a feeling of a smoother delivery of the power that is available. The engine revs quicker and more freely.
I had to change my driving style on my first ride with the new setup. Before I would always rev the engine to about 1500-1700rpm on take-off to avoid bogging in the engine and to have sufficient power for take-off. I found I did not need to spool the engine up quite so much for take-offs any longer. The power delivery comes on smoother and quicker. I'm still getting used to it, but loving every minute of it.

Two thumbs up to Pilo Racing for putting together a great offer.

Sounds like the Pilo ignition upgrade may be a solution to the bog that the stock S has. :smile:
