That sounds AWESOME!!!

Yeah, that's one mean mini

Jesus christ that sound! :O

Thanks

Been busy with engine upgrades. Done so far:

- New FMIC
- Catless downpipe
- Oil cooler
- Different dump valve
- Hybrid turbo

Started with 205bhp, 217lbf at 6500rpm. Now I'm at 245bhp and 258lbf at 5000rpm. Something above the 5000rpm is wrong as the power just drops. Need to look into that but DI engines are a bitch to tune. If it works as expected it should result in 260bhp at 6500rpm.

Next on the list is:

- Water meth injection
- Camshaft

Hopefully the end result will be just above 300bhp.

At low speeds the wing doesn't create that much downforce. It does help with high speed stability and cornering.

know what... you're right.. i guess i've just been slow and low for too long, i need something fast

seriously bad ass mini. i can even forgive the wing since it's a legit track car :P but does it actually help? wouldn't increasing rear downforce decrease ur ability to rotate the car around the tighter bends on a FF car?

Took the plastic off, rolled it. Put the plastic back and used a heat gun so the plastic would follow the new shape nicely.

Used a Luisi hub. It has the Nardi PCD so no need for a converter.

awesome mini! how did you roll the fenders? did you do the plastic trim or did you take it off then roll them?

also what hub did you use for your deep corn?
