- Modifying My R53 MINI Cooper S! 17% Supercharger Pulley + Intercooler!!
I took my R53 MINI Cooper S down to the team at Mod A Mini to get some work done!
Its safe to say i am extremely pleased and the car feels and sounds awesome!

It's cool to see newer content coming out for first-time owners modding the R53. Takes me down memory lane from 10 years ago.
Miriam is My friend, She is fab with a heart of Gold.. 90% of my main parts for my r53 s came from mod a mini.. I was in yr shoes 2yrs ago m8.. airtec 17% pulley the lot.. and I will NEVER sell my R53 s.. your in good hands m8 👍🏾🤗
Nice first wave of mods. Pulley just wakes these cars up doesn’t it?
A rear sway bar for improved cornering along with a quality intake/exhaust to improve breathing (especially with that pulley) will really round out the transformation.
Enjoy!
It really does wake the car up :)
Those rims might look good, but they weigh about 11½kg each; if you want to wake up the handling, get a set of lightweight rims and some decent tyres (MPS4 are the go-to nowadays). I'm sure that Miriam can help, but that's a good start!
Just listen to that supercharger whine. Can’t beat it
Sounds so good :)
Great video! Just bought a mini super excited to get it built. Thank you!
Great reviews of cars ordinary people can afford 👍
Myriam has fantastic hair!
😂🙌
Been wiring for this update! Nice one 👌🏻
🙌🙌
Yay Stef! Sounds amazing. I’m proper jealous.
Hello, I have a few questions about the modification!
A smaller pulley has now been installed and fortunately at least the correct spark plugs.
- But what about larger injectors ala JCW 380cc?
Without the larger injectors the MINI runs too meagre
and the death of the cylinder head sends its regards! (valves can burn out)
- What about adjusting the software ala JCW 200hp or 210hp?
Especially with the software adjustment, the conversion to a smaller pulley
becomes interesting and the potential is properly exploited!
- why a 17% pulley, as this is absolutely counterprotuctive for the cooling
(water pump turns much too fast and only whisks the water and transports this much less)
Even with the Airtec the charge air temperature becomes too high and from approx.65C°
the control unit goes into component protection and resets the ignition angle = immense loss of power!
The best way is 11,5% max. 13% from Stock (here the compressor is still running in its specification)

Why not get an R53 JCW? It has a flowed head, cold air intake, Teflon coated supercharger veins, injectors, brakes, and a tune. If you’re lucky it will also have the posi and sport suspension plus factory installed.
Should be doing before and after 1/4 mile times to actually see the performance increase of the pulley upgrade ...
Nice. Loving the Mini content. 👍
🙌🙌🙌
Do like this R53 Stef, do miss the whine from the early BMW Mini superchargers. Keep modifying. JenniferLouise is running a 2021 JCW Countryman with 300ps which is insane, but clearly we wont fiddle with it.
I had a cracked alternator as well and soon after a sheared belt tensioner
I wish my [VA] WRX took to mods as easily as this (and other) MINI Copper S. Moding the WRX is a nightmare. Every where you turn, an ECU tune is needed. This MCS gobbles up intake hoses and s/c pulleies w/o issue. It just says "thank you" and goes. 🏁
Look into RCM from the UK.... their 1&2 Gobstopper cars are serious & good for ideas top scope is a PPG GpN sequential transmission
Nice one mate, sounds awesome.
It does :) thank man
doesnt the 17% make it run lean, shouldn't you do bigger fuel injectors if you do the 17%?
Interesting.
Very interesting, personally, I wouldn't bother with the short shifter, I'd get a different exhaust, maybe bits to the =suspension and leave the outside stock.
Love the seats in Myriam's car
Now the next bit
Yeah those seats are amazing! Love the short shifter but light get something else first lol
Mad props my dude
Top vid! Well done mate
I asked ''Mod A Mini '' to renew my brake cables on my R53, they don't reply to messages from their web site, gave them 3 months, then ended up doing all the brakes myself including the calipers, which would of been a good job for them ... It's like they just never wanted the job in the first place!! ... Only time I ever got a response was when I wrote on their TH-cam page, but even after that, they ignored me and never got back to me .... Not very good customer relations to say the least!!
They are honestly terrible.
Adding air doesn’t make it to run lean?
I have 300k kilometers on my mini, do you think I can still put the reduction pulley on, or should I first check the insides of the supercharger
You’re the last person on earth that I’d expect to be whining Stef! 😂😂😂
😂😂
Hey stef
Do you still have the abarth ? Or you moved onto minis ?
Performance wise which do you choose between the fiat abarth or mini cooper s ?

Supercharger Whiiiiiiiiine 💪😎💪❤
Yep yep!
Hi love the mini I'm after one for my project a long project what cc is your mini
Did you need to do an ECM tune for this mod?
Do you need a tune after these mods ?
Next you need a nice sounding exhaust like mine!
Hello remember I'm watching the video take your time turn the camara when you filming a video ok !!!
Can somebody tell me why the original Mini has the bigger Pulley? Why wouldn't they put the 17% one from te factory?
The smaller 17% pulley creates more load on the engine----I have a 2004 JCW Mini that came with an 11% pulley----this was the factory hotrod--it also had better intercooler from the factory. It's a grin-inducing car for sure.
Emissions, safe(er) boost levels, and drivability. Plus you can save the small pulley for higher performance models.
The only regret you'll have after installing the 17% pulley is that you didn't go for the 19%!
I just did my 17% pulley just now! And the JCW 380cc injectors! My MINI sounds like a banshee now.
Did you manage to get hold of genuine 380,s ? Reason I say,lots of fake crap out there and they over fuel like mad, cause bore wash....talking from experience and wanted to share
Can you do all that without a tune or is a tune a must after those mods ?
Os your car tune? I have a 03 mini and has a intercooler intake full exhaust and I haven't put the pully on yet because I dont know I would need a tune after it
Hasn’t had a remap no. You feel the difference straight away with the pulley. Could prob get a bit more with a tune though
How much it’s cost all the parts???
The front leak, one bolt to remove and 3 dollars for the seal, why not do it? Power steering reservoir leak, no bolts, remove the cap replace the 3 dollar seal. Done dripping. No more drips, front or back.
I have the R52 version of this mini cooper S and it weighs less than this one.
I know everything there is to know about that car.
Any questions hit me up.
I love the way you drive your car with no care or thought for other users - nothing like being selfish to kill a nation.
Помогите мне, восстановить мой мини купер р53
Hi Stef 👌👌👍👍
Hey dude
Is it oil leak at the same time when the car is in on the front and it’s off that will cost you double the money🤪👎
Have you spent all that money just to go from home to work and back from work to home!? Go! Take it to the Nürburgring!! Or the Autobahn at least...
Lol, I’ve spent the money because I wanted to.
@@StefABtv Wow, Excellent!!
Obvioulsy you are not a car guy
