Increased Power for 2011, 2012, 2013 & 2014 Mini Cooper John Works Models with K&N Air Intake
- 7 Mar 2014
The limited edition, Oxford, England-built Mini John Cooper Works GP is a crazy serious fun ride, in addition to being the fastest Mini yet produced. The JCW GP essentially splits the difference between the standard John Cooper Works hardtop and a Mini Challenge race car, complete with its substantial roof spoiler, raucous exhaust note, and flashy graphics package. Production is capped at 2000 units worldwide.
The Mini John Cooper Works GP is powered by a specially-tuned version of the 1.6-liter engine which retains the S model's twin-scroll turbocharger, variable valve timing, and direct injection, but it now produces 218 hp at 6000 rpm, and a maximum of 207 lb-ft of torque for short bursts with an over-boost function. According to Mini this allows the JCW GP to scoot from 0-62 mph in just 6.3 seconds and reach a top speed of 150 mph. A six-speed manual transmission is standard, although an optional automatic is available. For the "more is never enough" crowd, a built for performance and show, K&N Typhoon Series Air Intake (69-2025TS) will dial up the Mini John Cooper Works GP overall performance yet another notch, with an estimated 6 horsepower gain at 5602 rpm and an additional 4.6 foot-pounds of torque at 3164 rpm. The free-flowing mandrel-bent aluminum tube induction system is designed to fit perfectly under the hood of a JCW GP and to dramatically reduce intake restriction resulting in the additional power and torque.
The Typhoon air intake comes with an oversized high-flow conical air filter, designed with increased surface area for longer service intervals. The K&N air filter is washable and reusable, provides outstanding engine protection and it can be used up to 100,000 miles before servicing is needed depending on driving conditions. The durable filter is cleaned and re-oiled with a K&N Recharger Kit (part no. 99-5050). Cleaning is as simple as following four easy steps. As with all K&N air filters, the Typhoon Series Air Intake (69-2025TS)and air filter are backed by the legendary K&N Million Mile Limited Warranty. K&N 69-2025TS fits the following Mini Cooper John Cooper Works models: See all K&N Mini Cooper air intakes at the Air Intakes for Mini Cooper page on KNFilters.com. |
