Mini One (2007 - R56) 1.6D 90 hp — mass-market diesel engine of the passenger segment of the BMW Group (Mini, Rolls-Royce, BMW Motorrad) group (Германия, 1916). Stage 1 chip tuning raises power from 90 to 140 hp (+50 hp, +56%) and torque from 210 to 320 Nm (+110 Nm). ECU — Bosch EDC16C35. Flashing method: OBD or Bench depending on the unit's protection. Diesel engines built in 2007 — the era of classic Common Rail without strong encryption.

Mini specialises in premium-level compact hatchbacks and crossovers. Mini shares platforms and engines with BMW (UKL/FAAR). Mini is a British compact-car brand, part of the BMW Group since 1994. DPF/SCR with AdBlue is standard on all Euro-6 BMW diesels.

Stage 1 on BMW usually stays within the standard timeframe, with no particular difficulty on the standard models. The BMW community is renowned for active tuning and a large pool of available Stage files. On low-output engines, Stage 1 is safe and does not over-stress the hardware. On naturally aspirated engines without a turbo, the main effect is on throttle response. In the city segment, Stage 1 is more about comfort than power.
