| Post subject: | Header for Mini Cooper S? |
Hi guyz, I'm looking an advice to apply header in my MCS, I found Xforce header for MCS, is this header good enough compare to other brand? Is there any Recommendation??? I'm not very sure about the design, Some they have 4-2-1 for MCS, some they have 4-1 for MCS, Which one better??? Thanks |

4-2-1 will be better manifold than a 4-1 genrally. They tend to easier to run to equal length and hence be a BETTER header. Talking Brands of header on the BMW MINI i have no idea. But the horse power increase from a manifold tends to only be around the 3-4hp margin and in a new car won't be particularly noticeable as it is minumal for the money spent. More worthwhile with the older mini's IE if you add 3hp to a motor putting out a total of 30hp(998) thats a 10% gain and you do notice it. I'm not trying to talk you out of new headers, just thought you should be aware of the gains you will see. Try first of all a K&N Filter, I have a PT Cruiser and this simple md gave the car noticable improvements in torque. Let us know how you go. Cheers Aaron |
