I just Bought a 2013 S and i need some advice

Hello, There is so much info here that I hope I am in the right forum. I am new and I just bought a brand new 2013 mini cooper S 4 seater. I bought it in automatic cause I am on the phone allot and writing things down or such as safe as I can.

I need help with some power mods. 1st I want power then exhaust intake and such. What are the best and most important mods to gain HP/Trq.

and in what order I should install the mod and what Brand do you guys recommend.

Thank you for your Help and support. I am very exited about this car but it is slow compared to my S2000 that made 638RWH.

No I don't want that type of power. I would be happy with 250 to 300 RWHP.

Thankyou

Good luck getting that much power to the ground with a 1.6 liter automatic car. Try the search function as this topic as been discussed numerous times by newbs just like you.

As a person that rides a motorcycle I'd like to ask you to please stop writing things down while driving before you kill someone.

I don't know why you would think it is slow compared to your S2000 with 638RWH. I gotta hear about the details to make that kind of power. Any pics of this beast? I always like the S2000 but living in the northeast it was not possible to own one. Why did you decide on a MINI?

The Mini is a fun car, the S2000 was too much power so I had to down tune it to 460 HP, and still couldn't use 1st or 2nd gear.
