I'd love to be able to do something like that but I'm lacking in skills, ability, patience, and I don't like getting dirty.


Excellent work.

This looks utterly amazing, a real credit to you. Definitely worth it after all the hard work, it made for great reading too.

I really want to a build a mini now, not a mental one like this, but something a bit more simple but still awesome.

That looks insane.

well i had the car with paul taday @ rs tuning for him to work his magic, i had a small issue with the inlet manifold and had to take the itb's off only to find a foreign body in there.
i removed it and thought id got away with it but after a bit of time on the dyno it was soon apparent something wasnt right
paul did a cylinder test and confirmed the inlet valve was leaking by on that cylinder
he did what he could with the car and lets just say he gained 90bhp from what it went in there with but still not what i was after ( please dont ask for the figures lol)
pic of the foreign body

a few of the dyno runs for you to enjoy some vtec flames
