new mini owner here and have the fever !! I am also new to performance upgrades… I found this 2019’countryman s all4 with only 16k miles and have added stripes, rally lights and side stripes.. performance wise I have added AEM cold air intake, Nm power module and will soon add the Nm catback exhaust and upgrade break pads. I’m guessing Max may be approx 238hp/250lb torque or in that range. With these upgrades, will stock clutch and drivetrain handle the additional hp and torque? I’ve read the gen 3 engines are the same from base to jcw, just ecu tuned differently and internal parts just more durable in jcw to handle the 300hp. So I’m assuming the S may be over engineered in that it will/can handle a good bit more hp and torque than what stock is measured at. Thx to all Mini-acs !
