The Newman camshaft is one of the best camshafts available for the MINI Cooper and MINI Cooper S, increasing both bhp and torque throughout the rev range by allowing the valves to stay open longer, increasing the amount of air / fuel entering the cylinders.
We recommend that the car is remapped after installation, however a remap is not always essential. Gains of around 18bhp can be expected from fitting a Newman camshaft, depending on the cam chosen and other mods on the car.
Benefits of fitting a MINI Cooper or MINI Cooper S Newman camshaft include:
Fitting cost: £180 - Fitting + remap £500
*** These items are manufactured to order, please allow 10-14 days for delivery.
RECOMMENDED CAMS - BMWI/250/400 PH2 camshaft.

Car modification laws in the UK and elsewhere are in place to ensure drivers who want to enhance their vehicles adhere to certain safety standards. While modifications are a great way to alter the look and performance of a car, some may also affect the handling and overall safety of the vehicle on the road.
You may need to inform your insurance company of any modifications made to your car – whether they were already installed when you purchased the vehicle or if you have done them yourself. If you don’t tell your insurer, any future claim you make could be turned down. Worse still, your insurance could be completely invalidated. Modifications carried out to any car may affect the vehicle manufacturers warranty.
