I have crap coming out of the snoot boot on the entry to the IC. Its chucking oily bits over the IC. Its ot a huge amount, but then I have an OCC, which after checking really needs an empty. I might not of spotted it if it wasnt for the oil on the IC.

thats why i really want to get the bush asap and see the times then tbh the 6dead is all all prob get from it.... at the moment

I feel id have the same prob at the mo as i can feel the engine moving, oh well we`ll see when ive got the damper fitted. Plus could do with some proper logging equipment

Cant believe that there is only 9 people have completed this test, or is there a lot more but daren't share there times??

I've started a thread on NAM so hopefully we'll be seeing some times coming in from over there soon.

My car is currently in small pieces in Dave's garage

Once it's put back together we'll get some timings

Thanks, sometimes I think I have a slow MINI but then I see most of you drive the shorther gearbox. That's mean in the same gear about 15 HP. OK there aren't HP but the car accelerate like It has 15HP more.

A lot of people have spent a lot of hours on the flowbench trying to find out what works, its not like other heads.

I know of other Mini owners / tuners who have hit 230+whp with the stock compressor to throttle body pipe.

I think your estimate for a head (10-15) is spot on, though there are heads out there what seem to produce a lot more than this.

No new chip, your current air fuel is safe as houses.

Custom tune is good choice i know. If I will have any trip to England I will come to you but is veryvery far.

I know the head is not a simple job, but I will trust my friend who made some engines for rally and he win's in his class. It wasn't MINI but I believe he will do some good works on it. Like I said I am not talking about 30+HP on head. I am a little realistic.

The throttle body pipe will be the simply job here. I have all stuf for welding (TIG), lathes, CNC machines and that stuff actually at home. I will try to do something better then OEM.

What is your opinion which ratio is still safe on that supercharged engine? So If I change head, throttle body, compresor and that stuff will the ratio stay the same? So between 11.3-11.6? What's your experience?

I can't wait for him to log his inlet temps with the new TB pipe

Do you think the inlet temps will be different?

[MINI-Morgan]

Where are all the turbo/twin charge R53s with their times!?

of course I do....

5.70 5.73 added Alta V2 15% pulley, GRS IC and stock air filter box with dirty used filter.

Yes we finally moved the battery from under the bonnet (hood)
