  Well u can go 2 upgrading the supercharger and intercooler....which is possible W/O any paperwork frm LTA since it already comes with it....like wad diabolus says i agree.... I prefer to buy the mini for an enjoyable driving experience and shaming those "tiong" chias at the corners

  seriously lar... this car is very fast liao....0-100 in 7.4 secs with a 1.6 liter supercharged/intercooled engine is amazing...and i dun think u shld change the exhaust cos i reduces the back-pressure... and FYI if u wanna have that 'push-in-the-seat' feeling u shld go boost the torque instead of HP as torque determines acceleration.... which is why BMW put a supercharger in the Mini instead of a turbo.... fast response, no lag...apart from being on the more expensive side... and FYI, the lower the revs which the torque comes out, the better... thats y muscle cars have lots of torque at low revs...no pt changine 2 a straight thru or a low back-pressure muffler as u only get 2 use the higher revs(if u ever do) on a highway
