This engine had been de-tuned though. A stock LM7 Ls makes 295 from the factory, and they had the mildest cam ever put in an LS. With just a cam, injectors, and turbo you can make over 1,000 hp on an otherwise stock iron block LS.
Maybe next video get the guide that Did the actual Fabricating. The fabrication is what makes the car Interesting. Not Going from a Standard Chevy to an LS.
Stock 5.3 is capable of 700hp plus when you add boost.. and we’ll over 1400hp with forged internals. Everyone in the comments crying “that’s it?” Need to seriously do some homework
A stock 4.8 makes 260hp and is the weakest ls of the group. he doesn't even have an actual cam it's ghost cammed. Dudes obviously playing every one of you soggy.
the disappointment I'm feeling rn from this video is what I imagine my girl feels like in the bedroom. lol. I just picked up a 09 Mini S as well going from by built STI and E46 M3. been thinking about LQ swapping her on E85 and getting blown by twins. keep it up tho. she'll rip when she's done!
He said it came with a small block in it originally, so at least he didn't pump the work into the body, but yeah 260hp is LOOOOW for an LS. Somethings fucky with the motor. If you want 400hp, K-swap, building a BMW B48 (The engines in the 3rd gen coops), a VW VR6 possibly would have done the job for far less work. Still, once the engine is actually dialed in, it should reach 400 relatively easy.
260 hp is stock hp for the ls with least amount of power. I'm convinced he has 0 mods and it's the cheapest stock ls he could find. He threw the intake on it to seem modded.😂
Something isn't right. Unless it has lifter failure, lifters will not put it to 400. Valve springs/cam combo should put it close to 350-400. Also never once mentioned LS displacement. Iron or aluminum. Lots of information that could have been added to this video.
factory that engine makes 350hp. So, its way down on power. Maybe a proper tune will fix that issue and get it breathing fire! Regardless, that much power in a mini is ridiculous anyways, you can whip that thing around all day long with 300hp.
Tune is bad, it should of be around 400 yes o yes with a good tune I want to say even 380 but 200 it’s definitely a tune issue, no big problem tho shit is amazing
He modded an ls just to get stock numbers. Or he lied its not built. Idk which yet but either way this thing is poop. My cooper makes 220whp with a 1.6 liter 35mpg.😂
Remove the cam and mods that should equate to 100hp atleast a cam is good for 60 and he has a comp cam. Then his numbers would be 160hp. This dude lied and played every one of you soggies. How are these people tuners. Posting this dog crap.😂 A his engine is toast. B he lied and yall lookin like idiots.😂 Either way this thing is poop.
Pretty sure he's got a hurt motor...I've got a 6.0 with heads, cam, intake, and exhaust and I'm putting 385 to the ground through an auto on a pretty conservative tune
How much modifications did he have to do to the engine bay to make it fit ?
Was it extensive?
Good to see Stephan still with the BEAST‼️Haven’t talked to him in awhile, but if your reading this, glad to see you still killing it bro🤜🤛
Is this the same mini from hoonigan? Back when he had the small block
it is
That's a nice build. But heads and cam will open her up. I'm hope for 1200 in my mini. Let's see.
My mom’s stock tahoe with a 5.3 made 290 to the wheels. It’s gotta be a high mile 4.8 with early cathedral heads and a small cam.
has any LS/Vortec in a factory vehicle ever come with that low of wHp? seems off.
Wow my R53 does 267 with a Head, air intake, pulleys and bigger injectors. Not even including my 159 shot of nitrous.

Once I get a transmission rebuild kit ill do this bro i swear i will

Lol a stock 5.3 makes 320hp. Dudes a liar. He has a stock 4.8 with a ghost cam in it. No way a actual cammed 5.3 only makes 260😂
That would imply the engine stock only made 200hp. 😂😂😂

Theres just no way they messed up the dyno or something. My buddy built a ls1 and it dyno at 430 to the wheel it doesnt make sense to me
Something is right. I'd bet money the cam timing is off a tooth. I've seen it before and it slow revs just like this one does.
LS swap the woooooooooooorrrrrrrld! 🏁🇺🇸✨
It amazes me that my Mini with a stage 3 tune and a 42mm turbo makes that little 1.6 push just over 300. Wonder what this would do turbocharged? 500?
R53 or R56?

I’ll take it 🤗👍🏼

Is it done yet ?
No way, all that work and my R56 Cooper s with 275 ponies smokes it WTF
Ya something is wrong there, slap that tuner in the face. My old worn out tahoe make more than that with a k&n filter and an oil change!
Is this an LM7 5.3? I would guess horsepower at the crank is only about 290.
Might as well left the original motor in the Cooper and just upgraded that 😂
Literally

my 2 litter mini cooper makes like 245hp
and its not nearly as loud which is funny. there's gotta be something wrong with that LS

Doesn't completely answer the question but they did say 317 heads. That is typically going to be a 6.0

Plus weight distribution, it's 60/40 with the 1.6 in it, it's probably like 80/20 now

My stock JCW MINI Cooper Countryman has more horsepower and torque with my 4 cylinder BMW twin powered engine.
Lmao he got a cargo van engine and thought he was gonna make power. Sad thing he been telling people he got a 400hp mini . Now we know its 260., ouch.
Doesn’t matter what an LS comes out of. 😂. That dyno is bogus. A stock LS 6.0 is more hp than that.
@@Whosurdaddy71 gearing and stuff tho
@@themaskedmusician4846 uh doesn’t change hp though
@@Whosurdaddy71 it does to the wheels
@@themaskedmusician4846 Hey bud stick to guitars or whatever it is you actually know something about. Gearing changed wheel speed not hp. 😂
Not gonna lie that was a disappointment 😕 cool car though.

My i4 mini makes 250 😂 his v8 mini makes 263 😂 pathetic
