@jackk123121 that's what i thought , i was only just steaming up there myself yesterday on the way back from r-tec , that looks like the road from st albans to leverstock green ?
@HENRYHOBBS1 well, in the technicals nowadays yes, but still the concept is British, and the German engineering just improves the whole concept. So I still consider it British. It's like the Queen, isn't it...

the supercharger sounds like a mixer... i don't like that... i prefer the new version with turbocharger... by the way it´s more economic than the supercharged one.
The turbo is dual scroll, so you get virtually no turbo lag. It kicks in at about 1700 RPM. The new engine is in my opinion is much better, but that doesnt detract from the old ones grumbly character. I'm a huge fan of both.
No No No No No!!!!! The supercharger sounds better,,,not just my opinion, but out-and-out, full-blown, straight-as-it-comes fact. I drive mine most of the time with the back seats folded down so I can hear the exhaust note, otherwise the sweet blower wistle takes over. Oh, and by the way, bugger the extra couple of cents per Mile!!
Seems slow for 245bhp, I know it's not slow, but doesn't rip through the gears like mine does... and I have the old gear box lol. Was 199whp/235bhp before the manifold...
If you have the Turbo S you missed the all point of having the retro look and sound of the 2003~2005 MINI Cooper S. Nevertheless nice vid, you passed all cars before road junction! Cooper S style!
whats a gtt2230? it sounds like the name of a turbo but the sound in the video is definitely a supercharger. Sounds awesome! Any other mods to make this work? what year?

What have you done to it to achieve 245 bhp? JCW's here in the states average 211 bhp.

Thats because its not a JCW its modified Cooper S. Changed pulley and belt , exhaust, intercooler, throttle body, induction kit, remap.

I'm confused on pulleys. In the Alta brand, which is better the 15 or 17% pulleys and why would I choose one over the other?

Yeah, but the supercharger sound is one of the coolest things about the 2002-2006 Mini's.

yeah, i just did my intake and pulley. i love it. one annoying thing though is a whistle at certain throttle with the alta.
