Here’s the Secret to Building a BULLETPROOF 600+ HP Mini Cooper (PART 2)

Welcome back to the RPM Power garage! After driving his 405whp Mini Paceman JCW test mule once again just a couple weeks ago (video link below), Lorenzo was certain it was crucial to pull back the curtain a bit more to show you some of the secrets behind his 600+ HP Mini builds. Enjoy.

I definitely would not be opposed to more videos and series like this 👍

[@AndreaArd]

Absolutely love this vid.
Lorenzo @ RPM is the undisputed Guru of modern Mini's.
Unbelievable passion, attention to detail and superior technical knowledge can be perceived from every single word he says.
Keep it up mate! Your work and efforts are greatly appreciated and inspiring!

[@xhulio6469]

Most underrated channel in YT,keep up the good work guys wish you all the best!

[@kennydelgado441]

Interesting build series

[@thatmini]

Love this series 😎

[@michaellissade1110]

I was going this route but, there's no way to make the plastic timing chain guides robust so they would not crumble when they fail and your engine fails after spending all that money in forging the engine. I just went the k swap route with my mini cooper s.

[@marcusbennette8454]

Which kit did you use for the Kswap?

[@michaellissade1110]

@@marcusbennette8454 RPT creations R56 k swap kit. He has a UA-cam page.

[@theocmaniak]

Honestly this problem is really blown up, it doesnt happen in the real world often.

[@user-nf7wj1bc2i]

How is it running

[@viewfield5]

are ur products available to be shipped to the UK and Europe ?

[@zevisgarage]

I bet that’s a JMTC Exhaust housing that had the bad Wastegate flapper 🤔

[@arnog9959]

100%

[@onray4641]

Was waiting for part 2 :DDD

[@stevenzhao3414]

Can the transmission handle that much power?

[@blox4954]

🔥🔥🔥

[@MrAboutLife]

Where would i be able to find such engine block if id like to go such route for a build like this

[@godzillanola]

I just purchased a R56 with auto. Could you recommended a good turbo upgrade that wont break the bank?
Is it possible to change the tranny to automatic? Sources say yes but its a pain

[@chrisbrodbeck1961]

Gosh I really like those rims, can you tell me where to get them, I've looked on Google nothing like that,,, help!

[@chi-yen3948]

❤❤❤

[@Modmaann]

When does the new rpm 400 ts turbo kit drop?

[@eternalvomitting8784]

❤❤❤❤

[@Brbs105]

Hi guys , i will like to ask somethink about the stok parts from the Engine what are not that good, what you suggest as alternative parts what keeps much longer, as example :the high pressure fuel pumps, injectors, spark plugs etc , Thanks for the answer ! 🙏

[@RoadsUntraveled]

Most of this is covered in part 1!

[@rosst.2565]

❤❤

[@jasonchamberlain2846]

I have an R56 that I just got to stage 2 and now it doesn’t want to start up right away. I have to turn it over 6+ times to get it to start and it barely starts up. It sounds like it’s going to die but after a minute it starts running normally until I shut it off and start it again. Is the problem the HPFP or is it something else?

[@connorwolszczenski5895]

I think that’s engine coolant temperature sensor or ECT sensor. Might want to check out pumps too

[@farrinmccahill6920]

I have a super charger and I rather have a turbo or go hands,?

[@d_real_one5775]

how much a build like this cost???

[@jimlucas0]

about three fiddy

[@single_cam9199]

Too much torque to early is what makes you throw a rods😅

[@ioanniskaikis9965]

Dude... we cannot even built a reliable 184hp r56...

[@greasy_baboons294]

So much money😢

[@bjornsama9649]

Do yourself a favor and just build a civic. A 500hp civic is faster than a 600hp Cooper. Lol.

[@acontadoquim]

The dude says everything is strong and good but you still have to reeinforce everything… Dude open a Toyota engine or a Honda engine and see how things are made, those are strong engines that dont need to make anything internaly to make good power… just bolt a turbo, ic and injectore and puff 400hp 500hp easy…
