Hello,

Check out the sponsor directory:

CLICK HERE TO VISIT THE SPONSOR DIRECTORY for a list of companies supporting MINI2 (so it would be nice for MINI2 users to support them in return!).

There's also a list of suppliers sponsoring The Great MINI2 is 2 Give-Away (link in my signature) as well as even more listed in the links section!

What's with the italian flag if you're asking about the US? Also, in the next little bit I plan on completing a FAQ on that. (Sorry MINIAC, I've been really buisy)...

Whatever.

I am waiting for the Dinan upgrades. I have been told by my parts guy and a customer service guy at Dinan that the upgrades should be done by June or so. The Dinan guy said the head work(porting and polishing I assume)is done. From the conversation I had it sounded like it will be worth the wait. I have driven a couple of Dinan cars before. I love the grunt power and handling. They would not comment on the cost of the upgrades but my friend who owns one said expect between 4-6 K. For 200 + HP it will be money well spent.

Check out www.minicoopermotorsports.com as Randy likes to suggest the best parts match for your particular car goals. He's a really nice guy. He offers most everything, or can get it, so he's very impartial to brands. He's tested most everything he sells, too.

Still not as good as those in the directory (see my sig). But that's purely because I'm bias!
