Dkjahn44:
You started a thread about upgrading a turbo. Then you turned it into a pi**ing match.
Either get back to the subject or give it up.
People that keep offending/insulting/fighting with others eventually get banned from this forum.

I suggest you have a look at the first post in this thread:

Just what all the girls want...a BMW MINI AUTOMATIC! Hope your heated seats keep your "fanny" warm while you enjoy that turbo boost and automatic shifting!

Generally speaking car manufacturers design their engines to match things like turbo boost to the engine and drive-train components, right down to tires. Although they do have margins of "error"/ factors of safety, they do not over-build significantly for economic reasons. So your hypothetical 270hp engine and drivetrain might sustain a slight increase in boost within that margin, anything more would compromise the durability of other components. In fact is is possible to damage an engine without increasing boost/horsepower. Something as simple of over-revving or a bad downshift can do it. (I speak from experience!). In other words, just bolting on a bigger turbo will eventually end in tears.

BTW... thewerewolf's business is cars - importing, exporting, rebuilding and buying/selling ... so he IS at work.

How much hp can a 2015 Mini Cooper S handle with stock internals? Automatic transmission full bolt  ons already have 270 hp to the wheels. Thinking about getting a bigger turbo.
