Not that I know of, I did look in to them but I have often been put off by the website... the design work does not please me by the pictures either

THEWORKSMINI · Jan 21st, 2008, 09:29 PM

Very unprofessional IMHO avoid is my advice

arvin · Jan 21st, 2008, 09:41 PM

the web design is a bit crappy but theyve done loads of stuff for minis b4,
if not them, where else can i get a similar kit

r1_kde · Jan 21st, 2008, 09:44 PM

They have done lots of stuff and have been featured in max power many times for the work they do, they did some very nice body kits for the A series mini, I just worry about the turbos as its very easy to get the wrong. Also worth considering not many people if any have purchased it...

I would contact one of the tuners on here and see what they can do for you.

If they were as good as they say, i think they'd be a Sponsor on hear at least.

Website is poor, that photo of the pick up MINI is a blatent photoshop. If he thinkshes got 225BHP out of that MINI with a very early Midland Box on there then he must work miracles to rebuildit on a weekly basis if he uses that 225BHP!

I think that place looks more boy racer type of shop with bodykits and the like!

i know but no one else does one though...

ScottyBoy · Jan 21st, 2008, 10:16 PM

I maybe wrong about 1320 but you can always ask, i think its for the R53 with them.

r1_kde · Jan 21st, 2008, 10:22 PM

You could always get your hands on an S set up and fit that... I have a full JCW kit in the garage which could be made to fit...

arvin · Jan 21st, 2008, 10:29 PM

nah ive already spilled 3+ grand on my cooper would be pointless getting an S with no aerokit.. unlowered..crappy wheels..back seats plus i love my car

r1_kde · Jan 21st, 2008, 10:32 PM

I meant put the blower on your engine, you would need to change a few things around but would have thought it possible. you would proably need to run lower boost or just leave the bypass open slightly

arvin · Jan 21st, 2008, 10:33 PM

naaahh.. its all about the dump valve
nrrrrrrrrrrhhh.. whoosh nrrrrrhhh.. whoosh

Hartge210 · Jan 21st, 2008, 10:50 PM

YouTube - M7 Mini Cooper Video
