buying mini, need help

[vacwm]

Hey guys... I am new to the mini, but have always dreamed of owning one. I have been a Beamer driver for a while, and I am looking to purchase my first mini. i am thinking about buying a 2007 mini cooper S... then i want to modify is so i can run about 300HP on it.

the problem is that i do not know much about cars and need your help... what kind of mods am i looking at? quick cost? if anyone has done anything similar, i greatly appreciate your help... thanks in advance.

(any other ideas are more than welcome, like buying the works and modifying that etc...)

300 is a pretty lofty goal and would be VERY expensive to achive,,,Also it would be very hard to be daily driven/reliable there are numerous 240HP ones about that would /are daily driven
