R56 Many people let me down!

Jeesh Matt, since when does a dollar amount of modding supercede praticality for the average MC owner ?
........As another whom appreciates "BLACK FORREST" Cars, would I WANT to drive a MINI Cooper which weighs a mere 3 thousand pounds faster than 140 mph? Especially when you consider the lack of surface and underbody aerodynamics ? Only if I was being chased by the Russian MOB.....and hopefully not for very long distance either....
BUT in your defense, in comparison to the R56, there are more performance parts available for the R53, because there is only so much one can do with the turbo.,

[quote=Q-4000;2641667]I think its more that there are not many parts for the R56 if you wanted to mod a mini should have gotten an R53 not an R56!!! sounds to me like you just like to bolt crap on your car so why not just get a Honda? and how much are you willing to spend??? these cars will not (well most won't) see numbers above 220hp! they are quick fun cars not 600hp hot rods!!! maby you should have done more research before you got it!

we generate a lot more HP here in Europe douche, most of us are pushing 225-240 easy. Surely you dont think you got access to all inclusive **** in America do you? Tuning a MINI is one thing best done here in Europe. You get the left overs, and the Catbacks.
The peugeot 206-7 Rally Car team gets a 280 Hp and much more TQ from this engine.

what?? why so angry? your the one crying that you cant get the performance you want out of your mini! and like I said MOST wont see #'s above 220hp
I would like to see the stats that show that MOST of you are running 225-240 EASY!
what?? what does that mean???
never said anything about this one!
well thanks for throwing us the scraps but I think some guys here are doing fine developing parts on there own!

You think you're the only American MINI owner who's lived in Europe on here? You think there aren't European members? Your so full of it it's disgusting, go buy a Mustang or Honda or whatever car you want that has a larger aftermarket than the R56 and enjoy, you're not chasing anything down on the autobahn no matter what you get.
Everyone here on this thread does realize that this dude as another thread where he's going to buy a Volvo right?
Theres a real performance car there boy
P.S. I do know that a Volvo can be modded but come on.

Hey now, I'm actually a fan of the R models of the Volvos and probably would've bought a S40 rather than a MINI through military sales had I been able to get hold of a turbo AWD model with a standard transmission.
I really like his American vs. European V8 thread, hmm, M3 with less power and fuel economy at a higher price Vs. Corvette with more hp, better fuel economy and a lower price, don't let facts get in the way of your thought processes.

I was just expecting a bit more tuners who honestly spend money to make real HP out of there car. I realized that many on here are satisfied with a bit of noise from a catback and are not as devout when it comes to chasing down the fine european autobahn cruisers as I am.

Are you in Europe, or in the US? Because if you're in Europe, you should have access to all these awesome parts you're talking about to make your MINI the fastest thing since the Veyron! And if you're in Europe, why are you coming onto a North American forum, expecting expertise with things that we can't get here?
