Wow-That is a lot of HP for a few simple mods. I do not have LSD.
I will probably not do any mods till its out of warranty. I do not want to have to fight with MINI. I hear they are bad enough the way it is honoring warranties.

 

We have had 0 problems with Mini. We did most of the stuff with under 10kmi on the car. They did took care of everything for us. We even had a bad O2 replaced when we got a CEL with the new down pipe. I think as long as they don't see a lot of over revs in the ECU & know it's adult owned you are ok.

With out a LSD, the new power will be very hard to put down! Even with the LSD, there is a TON of torque steer in 1st & a little less in 2nd.

 

I brought our new baby home today. 04 MCS 6-speed. Dark blue with white roof. Going to get her washed and waxed this afternoon.
I'm already in a group buy for an alta 15% supercharger pulley. I'll add a 2% drive pulley, intake and exhaust and that should put me around 200HP. Then some lightweight 17's, coilovers and a rear sway and I'm done!

 

serisouly... no pics

WTF?????

;-)

Congratulations!!!!!

 

I know I know. I'm workin on them...

 

Here she is in all her stock glory. That won't last long though....

 

Nice ride. Looks incomplete without some 22"s though

 

Good color choice, just like mine except I have the black roof and mirrors.

 

I'm trying to decide if I want to keep it white. I may the mirrors and roof wrapped in black. I think it would look better with the black grills I'll be getting to replace the chrome ones.

 

I wouldnt mess with the drive pulley.........I've heard some horror stories. With a JCW tune, 15% pulley and intake I dynoed 189 at the wheels.

Nice color mine is Space Blue......

By the way I commend you on TnT....I raised over $10k for my marathon in Seattle last June...unfortunately I am currently in Seattle since my 5 year old niece just relapsed last Fri.

 

black roof
black mirrors
black wheels

 

That's what I was thinking.

 

Thanks for the advice.

I'm sorry to hear about your niece. What is TnT though?

 

Oh sorry Team in Training........thought thats what you are connected with.

 

Oh OK. I register with the Leukemia Lymphoma Society directly, but they are also affiliated with TnT.
