Mini Cooper Modification

There are different ways you can modify a Mini Cooper without spending a lot of money. Let’s start with the handling. You can make the cornering so much smoother and racier by adding an anti-roll bar. This will not only make your car handle better but if you decide to race in circuits you will be ready.

Next thing is to get some Mini Cooper tires or tires that are compatible with Mini Cooper or your Mini Cooper wheels. John Cooper Works has some very cool and sporty wheels at the dealerships and online. Mini Cooper after market wheels will or may require different size tires. To get more speed you will need to modify the Mini Cooper engine parts.

First thing you can do is get a bigger Mini Cooper hood scoop as this will increase the amount of air intake which will cool your turbo faster hence make your turbo more efficient.

Then next thing you can do is put on a K&N air filter which will maximize air flow to your engine and make the combustion more powerful and efficient. This is about it for the people who want performance but don’t want to empty their wallets. Modifying cars can become a finance draining habit, but it doesn't have to be if you do it smart and only occasionally.
