2006 Mini Cooper S

Well I figured its time to start a thread on the new car.

Here are the current stats and performance mods that came on the car.

218 hp 1.6 liter supercharged I-4
6-spd w/OD Automatic Steptronic Transmission
2.579 lbs

Now yes I know its an Automatic the wife had alot of say in the car and she cant drive a stick. So we compromised it has the paddle shift option which makes it pretty fun to drive.

M7 Air Diverter
M7 DFIC
M7 Hood Scoop
M7 Supercharger Heat Shield Blanket
M7 Exhaust Blanket
M7 Strut Tower Brace

Exterior… ah hem “mods”
JCW Carbon wing
Carbon Hatch handle
17" Enkeis with TPS monitoring
M7 Carbon Splitter




Some of the nice OEM options
Navigation
HID’s
John Cooper Works sway bars

So far the most Ive done to it was add an ipod interface and a “stubby antenna” because the wing was hitting the factory antenna.

Plans for the near future:
M7 lower grille
Rear fog light
Air intake and heat shield
Samco Intake Tube

Plans for the eventual future:
17% supercharger pulley
Scangauge II (code reader, electronic gauges, trip computer via OBD II port)
Hope to send the Intercooler, intercooler pipes, and intake shield out for some powder coating and polishing this winter.
Suspenion

I knew it …I just frickin knew it…bring back the FLAT BLACK TERROrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

If I ever buy another Z ever again it will be getting the V8 treatment.

This could be… Flat Black Jellybean!

Steptronic is a 90’s techno group.

Not a big fan of the wing, but otherwise it looks good. Those mini’s are a blast!
