🐒 MINI VS FERRARI! MENTAL 400HP TURBO MINI COOPER REVIEW

[@christopherbartleson8918]

400HP is absolutely mental in a car this light and must be absolutely fantastic to drive!!! *Thumbs up*

[@gianmadridiv]

You know its fast when the owner buckles up!

[@pushinglimits3285]

That's easily the nicest mini I've seen damn that thing is clean. 🔥

[@monkylondon]

Hope you guys enjoy this Mini review massive thanks to Jonny for bringing her down. Next up, 750hp R32 GTR 👍 Hope you all have a good weekend, any questions let me know. Peace ML

its still a shit wagon, ugly, front wheel drive, not aerodynamic hair dressers car hahaha so cool lmfao

[@realkevintorres]

Can I see a full list of mods? I'm looking to upgrade my mini as much as possible as well.

R53 Cooper S weighs 1150kg not 950kg. mental little car though, I bought one a couple of weeks ago and love it, must be utterly insane with that power 👍🏻.

[@monkylondon]

Ah thanks for that man! Yeah John reports it's pretty white knuckle haha! Have a good weekend bud

[@PT82]

Robbs808 standard cooper weighs 1150, Cooper S is over 1200kgs 👍 Very cool car nonetheless.

Yeah they're surprisingly heavy for their size, very compact. I miss my old daily, don't miss the all problems and fuel mileage though.. 😬

whats the song name what Jonny played in the car at the very beginning of the video?

4:54 John scared Jon doing a "John" in Jon's car... 😂🙄 He's looking for anything to grab! Epic shiz as usual! Looks like a fun little car, they're a riot even with the stock blower and some decent mods.

Most unique R53 interior I've ever seen, very cool. The pops, cracks and the sheer speed of this Mini is amazing, enjoyed.

Different stage clutches for different HP output

[@weedaviec]

Have to say this is my favourite car I’ve seen on this channel. Superb work done throughout this little rocket. My Dad has an early Cooper S like this. Wonder if he’d like a few mods????!!!

[@EssexSilvering]

I respect the work that's been done and very impressed with the performance, .... BUT .... Hate to burst your bubble but you can't beat the sound of a Supercharger!! Supercharger sound is the best sound ever!! (my opinion) .... Thanks for sharing, well done on all your mods, great car!

Best sounding car of the year so far 👌🏻

[@ragasdapper]

Seeing all these cars on this channel makes me miss my 300bhp Zafira GSI, ive still got it just had a massive crash going to take alot of money and time to get it back on the road

How the fk did he fit that in an old mini

[@kieranoconnor0]

Pics or didn’t happen

[@MrDickBills]

Have a go on a modern bike that has the same or more power than a Cosworth. I only own a boring litre Honda motorcycle, but it keeps up with traffic and actually is starting to feel a bit slow, as I am getting used to it. I used a drag race app, and my 30 to 90 was 3 seconds. Have a go on the latest Fireblade if you want to test your nerve. 104 mph in first gear, 140 in second. It has six gears.

There's full kits you can buy now Most people make their own manifolds or source their own parts for the kit. These turbo r53s engines have been near 700whp

[@rogertorres6752]

May I ask what's done to it.. I just got one and I need more power. I have a 1k whp charger but love this mini more lol. I would love to pass ppl off by leaving them in the dust .. sleeper!

[@MauofMiami]

@@rogertorres6752 there's a lot of things you can do to them and just depends how much money you want to spend time first on the suspension then the brakes. I don't know what many you have or what year but remember something it's a vehicle that weighs 2700 pounds and if you liked it up a little bit and actually put more than 15% of wheel horsepower on the pavement of the total body weight per the NHRA calculator it becomes a 12-second vehicle mine for example has a completely motor rebuild with ported and Polished heads bigger valves bigger injectors bigger Turbo and I'm doing 28 lb of boost but also it's a 63 mm turbo saw my Turbo breeds a lot of air for example your charger is a very heavy vehicle if you were to lighten it up it actually gets a much quicker it's not always about horsepower it's also about torque I have also changed the stroke on my motor to a 1.8 it made a world of difference and yes the Corvette ZO6 get really scared when they get next to me when they hear the lobe of my camshaft and they say the 8ft Flames come out the back of the exhaust LOL

[@Dylanvdongen]

What gearbox model is in the car and 5 or 6 speed And what did you need to change?

[@roccofitel8970]

The way he said he hates how soft the steering is is newer cars. Man I felt that. That's exactly why I have a mini. Since the luxury commuter market has ever been a thing as LONG as I have been a live. I have and will continue to hate soft steering. I mean when I got my mini I couldn't instantly tell when it was being pushed past its limits cutting corners. It definitely talks to you when driving...but make no mistake. Tramlining as you all call it happens in the states. I'm in Seattle and damn...going down I-5 is a nightmare when it's raining...it feels like the car is...skating in the ruts. Oooochild.

[@rehanali-hy9tk]

How reliable are those especially the ones with superchargers what about parts ? Are those cheap

Is it true that a open Airfilter is bad for the Engine, because of warm Air under the Hood?

[@davidkennedy1077]

Yes, I bought a K&N cone for my Astra and a mechanic showed me how bad they are. They work great if you didnt have a bonnet but as soon as you shut the bonnet the filter is just sucking in the hot air off the engine. This was back in the 90s, nowadays I notice most put a box round the cone to stop the problem.

[@cardude900]

@@davidkennedy1077 Thx dude👌✌️

[@ivorproblem1332]

It can especially on a NA engine but when you have a turbo and you are tuning up usually the standard airbox (even with a better filter) is too restrictive at higher rpm + the air usually has to travel around right angles which again is not ideal. So you have no choice but to go open air filter.
