The package includes a new Eaton Super Charger, a new ECU, a new exhaust system, and a revised transmission gear ratio. The package includes installation cost around $6000. The horsepower are boosted from 160 HP to 200 HP.

When we step on the gas pedal for the first time, we were really surprised by the added power. The power delivery felt much like a big displacement engine. The close ratio gear box is perfect for track use. There is power aplenty in
every single gear, we seldom have this kind of experience in a small car.

For the mere addition of 40 HP, the $6000 price tag seems to be really high. But considering the perfect integration and the original manufacture warranty, the MINI Cooper S JCW is really an attractive package for MINI lovers.
