Friend of mine, Steven House has turbo’d his R53 JCW. Along with 1320 MINI near Cambridge it pulls 420bhp and really is bloody amazing. He’s in our small Messenger Local MINI Meet in East Berkshire and we meet regularly. It’s a head turner everywhere especially at the first JCW National Day event we held last month at the British Motor Museum in Gaydon. Attended by none other than Frank Stephenson, designer of the R53 and the John Cooper Works mechanics.
Even tho it's way easier to make power with the turbo, I can't help but love the whine of my r53's supercharger. If I ever decide to make it a dedicated track car, I'll probably make the switch.
It’s a stunning car, I love the blue against the carbon fibre. Those wheels make me swoon, the overall vehicle is lush! I felt disappointed with the video as I would have liked a track lap and to have heard the engine from him being stood beside it. Still, it’s a dream of a car!
I’d love a more in depth video of this. This was kind of a pointless video I’m sorry. You’re the “MINIac” but you know almost nothing about this mini or r53’s in general it seems.
That isnt a carbon hood! Cause when you popped it, i saw the stock blue paint! Why you got momo wheel with sparco seats ?! Why you got all those guages over dash?! Thats the fastest thing you've been in huh? Thats not even your ride either! Why are you making content!?

Aww was hoping it was twin-charged. Imagine a twin charged mini... that'd be sick
Mine is being built right now with a twin charge
Throw out bearing needs replacing by the sounds of it. Mine was exactly the same

Why bother making this video if you didnt drive it?
Love minis, but lost me when I saw the tow hook
Where are you supposed to tow it then love?
@@swiftishttv I guess the Civic crowd ruined the whole tow hook thing for me, now they just aggravate me
