I have a 2007 Mini Cooper S (supercharged convertible) with an intake and 15% pulley, and it can easily outrun a stock RSX type S. The mods probably put the little beast at 210 crank hp? Haven't dynoed it, and probably never will. 1st, 2nd, and 3rd gear pull extremely well! Easily the most fun car to zip in and out of traffic in.

Hey buddy, what is a 15% pulley? Typo? I guess you have a crank and s/c pulley modified?
