Hows yours running now mate? I know the previous owner used to look after his cars like gold. I would love a jcw clubman to put V2 KW on and some pole positions but so many people are having grief with the psa lump even stock. Its Crazy.
Haven't updated this in a while.
I managed to get the car colour coded to finish the exterior (still need to do the rear bumper inserts). New bonnet scoop that works a lot better than the bbr on there previously. Intercooler is always cold and car more responsive. Camber plates, 4-1 equal...
Pointless arguing. Best off taking it up with evolve who do this for a living.

Map exhaust and intercooler + 80hp
this is for a S not a JCW S. the jcw as follows with map only almost 50hp...
You do know that 135i are around 300 bhp stock and can be put up to 400 hp with just a map. New age engines are majorly detuned as they are so efficient for fuel economy. If they left the factory at this level they wouldn't be suitable for all markets due to temperature variations, fuel quality etc.
Yeah 60 hp is a lot, but lots of tuners are getting it. Ive driven numerous 56's but prefer the old school feel of the 53. the 56 drives like a premature ejaculation, shoots its load quickly and then all over by 4k rpm.
the cam injectors etc is for the R53 supercharged version
the remap is for the R56 turbo version
have a look over on mini torque mate. no need to talk balls on bhp as im more about ££ per smile. There are plenty of graphs most done on a mustang dyno or dyno dynamics. if you have a look at...
P Torque actually. Evolve regularly get JCW Turbo models up to 280 bhp and 300 lb ft with an intercooler and map. These start life at 218 bhp. Always worth doing research rather than wallowing in ignorance.
Mini does handle well out of the box but a clio rs it definately isnt. the problem...
Yes but for all that fitted is £1250 inc vat (cat cam, 550cc injectors, mynes remap, reduced pulley). This is the charged one I'm talking about. The cheese engine as fitted to the turbo cooper s and turbo corsa Vxr (which is basically identical) is a boost upgrade which those engines find it...
Cam pulley remap injectors on a supercharged s will get you 250 at the fly. This is more than enough to do e46 m3's. was out with my friend in his evo 4 and my other mate in his 244 Hp cooper s. the evo only convincingly pulled away over 100 when rolling from 60.
Massively underrated. The new...
Mini Cooper s supercharged with a mynes remap and 13.2% reduction pulley from 1320 mini. Keeps inlet temps low, easily get 50miles from £10 when having a hoon much more if cruising gently.
minis only drink as they are mapped rich as stock due to them being sold in the four corners of the...
Just picked up a d5100 with a 35mm 1.8. Massive step up from my old 350d that lasted me 6 yrs. a lot more to learn but the images are cracking so far. £75 combined cash back on those two as well.
Nice thread. Had this for 12 months about 10 years ago
Then my beloved 182 which was killed from the rear
And now this which I have had the longest of any car... 4 years. Another car is probably on the cards next year but will be keeping this for weekend hoons.
Awesome vid. Makes me miss being in a Clio in a way. This forum is so awesome, by far the best IMO. So many have grown up using cs and it's even better they have stuck around even with the new motors.
Get one then find out. Not a fan of autos but when you do get use of one it is much better when you want to have a conversation, open a sandwich, drink a tea / coffee, lean over to get something from the back etc etc. A 3 ltr straight six makes so much sense with an auto box.
Stunning a real credit to you!
I think I did about 16k miles in my first year of 182 ownership. Couldn't stop driving it! It died in Aug 08, 3 yrs old with 56k on it!
