About this tune
The F60 Countryman Cooper S shares its B48 turbo four with the hatch (badged B46 on US emissions cars). It is the heaviest MINI here and ALL4 AWD adds more drivetrain loss than the hatch. 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 Countryman tuning
The MINI Cooper S Countryman (F60, 2017–2024) leaves the factory at 189–192 bhp · 280 Nm — FWD or ALL4, B48 under the bonnet (B46 on US-spec cars). 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, its fuel grade, and the drivetrain fitted. Stage 2 targets 270–285 bhp · 420–460 Nm with an intercooler, decat/sports cat, and intake; from there the B48 reaches around 400 bhp on a hybrid or big-turbo build with supporting fuelling.
The F60 is the Countryman — the largest and heaviest body in the Cooper S range, available in FWD or ALL4. ALL4 adds drivetrain loss over the hatch builds, so wheel figures sit a little lower, but the stage targets hold across both drivetrains. One point shapes every Cooper S Countryman build past Stage 2: the low-compression B48 Cooper S piston is not the same unit as the JCW's — forged internals come before the power climbs past JCW levels. Run 99 RON on any aggressive map.

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 Countryman 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 Countryman tuning — frequently asked questions
The B48 / B46 (US) in the Cooper S Countryman leaves the factory at 189–192 bhp · 280 Nm. Stage 1 targets 245–260 bhp · 360–400 Nm with no hardware required — OBD flash on BM3, MHD or MG Flasher. Throttle response sharpens and the torque curve broadens noticeably through the mid-range.
Stage 2 targets 270–285 bhp · 420–460 Nm and requires an intercooler, decat or sports cat, and intake — cooler spark plugs are also advised. The turbo and fuel system hold within those figures on the stock B48 / B46 (US).
Remotely — the calibrated map lands in your BM3, MHD or MG Flasher account within 24 hours of payment confirmation. You flash it yourself over OBD in about 15 minutes. Samuel personally calibrates every file; nothing is automated.
Yes. Samuel supplies the original B48 / B46 (US) stock file before you flash, so the car returns to factory calibration at any point.
F60s with the ZF automatic benefit from xHP once torque increases — worth adding at Stage 2 where the load on the gearbox climbs. At Stage 1 it's optional but noticeable. Manual variants don't need it.
