Mini Cooper

[roundhouse]

The borla cat back exhaust on Mrs roundhouse’s six speed 2010 mini turbo , sounds awesome .

Gets a little old on long road trips though .

I dunno if it’s been tuned , it has the borla exhaust some kind of cold air intake, drilled rotors , perelli tires etc ,
but its the fastest car I’ve ever driven .

We’ve been changing the oil every 3000 with royal purple , and keeping an eye out for the carbon buildup in the intake runners

Depends on your wants. If you do catless down pipe add 3-400, the tune is around 800 if i remember correctly.

I have a ‘12 that’s stage 2. There’s only really 1 good tuner in the US. The other one is in Canada and the US guy is a rep for them.
You can tell him how much you want it to pop and bang level 0-10. He also has a BBQ option that will make it spit flames. He can also tie the tune to sport button so it’s not always uncivil.

mind telling us who the tuner is? Looking at 3rd gen/F56 Minis for the daughter to drive. Just starting to look around, not sure yet what she would like (2dr/4dr, etc). I'm thinking a non S model and then being able to hop it up in the future depending upon who ends up driving it more.

I'd love to get a 6MT and I know she wants to learn manual transmission, just not sure starting with that would be a good option in Atlanta traffic. But it would be easier for her to learn on a smaller car with less power than our current cars. She's freaking me out driving my car...

Not much to hop up on a non S, it it pretty limited to suspension mods and the typical filter/exhaust and that’s it.

I can send info via PM on the tuner if anyone is interested. Otherwise here is his Social Media

I exclusively track mine. It’s been reliable and lots of fun. I’m also not the typical car owner who lets things go until they are physically broken, everything is done either early or on time maintenance wise, even if it isn’t broken it gets replaced at its service interval weather that’s time or mileage based. That includes oil, coolant, brake fluid, belts, pulleys, pumps, hoses, etc
