Cooper S Clubman
B48 / B46 (US)

About this tune
The F54 Clubman Cooper S shares its B48 turbo four with the hatch (badged B46 on US emissions cars). ALL4 AWD versions exist; figures are similar at the crank, with AWD adding drivetrain loss. Stage 1 is software-only; Stage 2 adds an intercooler, sports cat/decat and intake. The low-compression Cooper S needs forged internals before JCW-level power is safe. 99 RON strongly recommended.
MINI Cooper S Clubman tuning
The MINI Cooper S Clubman (F54, 2015–2024) leaves the factory at 189–192 bhp · 280 Nm. Stage 1 moves that to 245–260 bhp · 360–400 Nm without touching any hardware — Samuel maps the MEVD17 / MG1CS003 DME via OBD on BM3, MHD or MG Flasher, every file calibrated to the specific car and its fuel grade. Stage 2 targets 270–285 bhp · 420–460 Nm with intercooler, decat/sports cat and intake; from there the B48 runs to around 400 bhp on a hybrid or big-turbo build with forged internals and supporting fuelling.
The F54 Clubman Cooper S shares the B48 turbo four with the rest of the MINI F-series range — badged B46 on US emissions cars, same engine, same calibration starting point. ALL4 AWD versions of the Clubman exist; power targets are measured at the crank and hold across both drivetrains. One structural point that shapes every build: the Cooper S runs lower-compression pistons than the JCW, so pushing into high Stage 2 or Stage 3 territory needs forged internals first — it's not a software limit. 99 RON is strongly recommended on any aggressive map.

Engine guide
MINI Cooper S tuning — B48 / B46 stages, hardware and what to expect (F54 / F55 / F56 / F57 / F60)
The MINI Cooper S runs the BMW B48 2.0-litre turbocharged four — the same engine as the BMW 320i / 330i, badged B46 on US emissions cars. Across the range (F56 3-door, F55 5-door, F57 Convertible, F54 Clubman, F60 Countryman) it leaves the factory around 189–192 bhp, with meaningful headroom left in the calibration for warranty and global fuel variation. MINI Cooper S tuning with Samuel starts by finding exactly where that headroom sits on your specific car and fuel, then building a map that extracts it reliably. One reliability point shapes every Cooper S build: the low-compression Cooper S piston is weaker than the JCW's, so the safe road to big power runs through forged internals before JCW-plus figures.
Stage 1
245–260 bhp · 360–400 Nm
ECU/DME software only, flashed via the OBD port on stock hardware. Sharper throttle, a much broader torque curve and the response the Cooper S should have shipped with. The most cost-effective single change on the platform. 99 RON strongly recommended for the full figure.
Every MINI Cooper S tune Samuel produces is calibrated individually for the specific car, fuel grade and installed hardware, and reviewed against your data logs before sign-off — never a base map loaded and left.
Compatibility
This Cooper S Clubman tune runs on Bootmod3, MHD or MG Flasher — all three flash the B48 / B46 (US) over OBD. Compare platforms or see full B48 / B46 (US) compatibility.

FAQ
Cooper S Clubman tuning — frequently asked questions
Cooper S Clubman Stage 1 takes the B48 / B46 (US) from 189–192 bhp · 280 Nm to 245–260 bhp · 360–400 Nm — no hardware required. The map is flashed through the OBD port on BM3, MHD or MG Flasher. Torque fills out hard across the mid-range; it's the most cost-effective single upgrade on the F54.
Stage 2 targets 270–285 bhp · 420–460 Nm and requires an intercooler, decat or sports cat, and an intake — cooler plugs are also advised. The stock B48 / B46 (US) turbo and fuel system hold within those Stage 2 figures; no turbo upgrade is needed at this level.
Samuel delivers the calibrated map to your BM3, MHD or MG Flasher account within 24 hours of payment — every file is hand-calibrated for your specific car, not automated. You flash it yourself over OBD in about 15 minutes.
Yes. The original B48 / B46 (US) stock file is supplied before you flash, so the car can return to factory calibration at any time.
The F54 Clubman runs an 8-speed ZF automatic, and xHP is recommended at Stage 2 and above — the torque increase is enough that a stock gearbox calibration can hold back how cleanly the extra power gets through. At Stage 1 it's optional but noticeable. Manual-gearbox variants don't need it; the F54 Clubman is automatic only.
