New 2016 Countryman S Performance ?'s.

New to these forums. I have a brand new 2016 Countryman S All 4. Considering a couple hop-ups:

Burger Chip: anyone have any experience or feedback?
http://burgertuning.com/Mini_Cooper_...nce_tuner.html

Air Filter: Looking for a high flow air filter suggestion. Anyone here have any preferences or experiences with drop in filters?

Thanks all!

Burger tuning worked well in my car, just didn't give me the low rpm boost I wanted so I sold it. I have a drop in K & N , not sure that it does anything. Cold air intakes are a waste of money on these cars beyond sounds they let out.

How do you describe the sound different if any?

Hi 64BIT,

in terms of sound, just like any other vehicle with a CAI, it will be throatier and have more of an induction sound. Also, you will be able to hear more turbo spool and DV/BOV actuation.

For Tuning: Look up Manic Motorsports. It is going to be a massive performance gain. I have STG2 and am pushing 23 lbs.
