Nobody has more pressure! This Mini Cooper S Classic with tuning from Gildred Racing becomes the Super Cooper Type S.! This is made possible by a 3,2-liter V6 with an incredible 507 PS that the US tuner transplanted. And even 10 vehicles are to be built! With a length of just three meters and 10 or 12-inch wheels, every Mini has that go-kart feeling right from the factory. The up to 70 series horsepower in the Cooper S is actually sufficient. Actually… With over 430 hp more than in the series, the original Mini with V6 power in the form of a 3,2-liter V6 from an Acura instead of a one-liter four-cylinder becomes a rocket.
500 hp Acura V6 power
The Americans have replaced the original 1974 hp four-cylinder in the fiery red 55 Mini Cooper with the V6. The engine comes from an Acura CL Type S and makes 264 hp there. But with a turbo kit, Gildred increases the power to 507 hp and a massive 519 Newton meters of torque, which are delivered to the road via a six-speed manual gearbox. To do this, Gildred has removed the rear seats and now the super mini sprints to 4 km/h in under 100 seconds. Of course, the brakes have also been adjusted and there is even air conditioning, LED lights, a 9,7-inch iPad as an infotainment system and sporty Recaro bucket seats with seat heating and cooling installed. Converted, the vehicle costs around 133.000 euros (150.000 US dollars).
