MINI2

LMB · Nov 22nd, 2003, 01:45 AM

From what I have read on Mini2 and NAM it's either a 5th Generation M45 Eaton or a 5th Generation MP45 Eaton.

Now I have scoured the Internet and I can't find any proof that a fifth generation of either of them even exists. Nor can I find anything that links either the M45 or the MP45 to the MCS.

If they do exist all I can assume is that they are not on sale to the general public.

Does anyone know what Model Eaton is in the MCS?

If so could you point me in the right direction of a link that states it. I'd be very grateful.

Thanks

Thanks Paul.

M45 it is.

Next question is how do people know it’s a 5th Generation? I can only find the existence of a 4th Generation M45...

And according to this:

http://www.capa.com.au/prices_eaton.htm

..it costs $ 2,789.00

$2,900 Canadian Dollars = £1,306 Pound Sterling = $ 2,224 American Dollars

Hi Norm,

They don't even sell the M45.

All I want to know is where it says the M45 is 5th Generation. Someone must know???

The only conclusion I can come up with is that the Supercharger is a 4th Generation Eaton M45 custom made to BMWs specification. Hence people are calling it a 5th generation.
