Just had Mini one chipped - F**k Me

[Jamie _Swales]

Just got the G/fs Mini super chipped - claimed 35bhp increase as its originally a detuned cooper engine

What a difference, its turned a shopping trolley into a little hot hatch

Just being testing it
spins the wheels in 2nd
65mph in 2nd
95+ mphin 3rd

slowed down after that though

Its been transformed, just as much fun as driving the 182



I thought id never say it, but i enjoy driving her mini one

quality how much was did the chip cost?

 

[Jamie _Swales]

£299 quid, worth every penny

To say the copper cost a few thousand more, bmw are just screwing poeple over lol

This is now faster than a cooper because it efectively like chipping a cooper

Thats the best thing about the Mini's, you can chip the nuts off them.

The cooper's gear ratio's are different but its a pretty good option for mini one owners. A mate of mine did a few bits to his; play mini exhaust, induction and chip....went pretty well. They need better brakes and suspension though in my opinion

Is that the superchips 'bluefin' chip then!! my mates getting one and his car is already rapid, get 90 in 3rd with his full exhaust system and k&n. sounds the tits already but he will write it off soon as he is a crazy driver!

to be honest the brekes are better than my 182, ( my 182 ones are s**t) they are aparently the same as th brakes on the coopr s.

The handling is suprisingly good for standard, i useto hate it but honestly its good now.

Have you ever driven one?

Glad you are pleased with it! Ive just replied to your PM but I guess the results speak for themselves! It makes such a massive difference, and as you say, turns it into a fun car to drive.

Just remember to tell your g/f to take it over 4000rpm!
