Phil knows his stuff when it comes to FI heads...

just read through your post and the setup looks amazing as it as been said you should start to make some more of your manifolds as im sure people would purchase them due to the quality of them.

any further info on your car is it all going ok on the reliability front, an also did you reach your desired bhp figure?

I'm so jealous!

Your car is literally my dream car!

Amazing fabrication skills! - I do hope my Motorsport Engineering degree course will teach me some good fabrication skills.

Sorry for the late reply, we moved house 2 weeks ago any only just got broadband back!!!!!

I've thought about making some more manifolds and I've been asked for a price, problem is no one will pay what I'm asking.

Power wise, after asking a few mini tuners who have knowledge in this setup told me there is no way you'll see more than 130bhp at the flywheel, which is about what we have. I've seen no proof with dyno figure to see any other supercharged setup with anymore power. At the end of the day its driveability that counts not massive bhp which can be unreliable!!

Mini Magazine came down today to write a feature, plus took loads of quality pictures.

[josh.evans]

very nice you should make and sell them how much you recon they would cost?

[Grahamxx]

I've been told there is a feature on my mini in Mini Magazine, but haven't yet got a copy. Has anyone else seen it??

[richieg]
