Check out this quick Mini...

http://www.dragtimes.com/Mini-Cooper-Timeslip-3743.html

looks like he increased the boost to 15psi..... how much boost pressure do the stock supercharged Mini's run?

thanks!

Welcome to MINI2

According to the FAQ on engine, powertrain and supercharger boost on the stock supercharger is 11.6 psi.

A 15% reduction supercharger pulley takes you to 15 psi.

With that ambient temp (92F), and on run flats, that seems to be a very good time. Actually, thinking about Andy's 1/4 mile log, that ranks right up there, minus those using nitrous...

Tuned 350Z's are in the 14.2 to 14.5 range, so we are getting quite fast!

I'm gonna have to call him out on this one....It doesn't smell right.


16" runflats?
60' time of 6.593?
99.380mph?!
and to top it off at 92' F!!!!


no way.

He would have to have more hp than an intake, plugs, "custom" exhaust and 15% pulley to get that trap speed. I have more than 60 1/4 mile passes on my MCS with all sorts of intakes, sprayers, pulleys, tires etc.....never over 97mph. Maybe he has head work....or something else?

I was trying to be polite Bisch... It does seem overly optimistic, given his mods, assuming all were mentioned...

hmm it looks like to me this is more of a G-tech or other testing slip.. instead of a Drag strip.. the 60' is more like 0-60mph which is not given at any drag strip i know of. I've done mine with the G-tech pro. 15% pulley and simular mods.. on a day when it was 72 deg was able to pull 14.5's and on a cool 55 deg day a few 14.3's. The number on those runs did closely match his readings. including top end. At the drag strip Even though my RT were top notch I've never got the launch like i would at my test track. and could only pull 15.1 strip/ 14.8 G-tech. Oh his 60' should have been 2-2.4 area if anyone is interested

Until we meet on the road
Have fun, Be safe and Keep MOTOV8N

It would "custom-ize" it, of course.

yea, looks like what was entered was a 0-60MPH time, not 0-60'..... which probably came from an accelerometer....
