VERY good returns on the Mustang with the larger TVS when replacing the previous M-series equivelant. I have some data on it somewhere. The TVS could be a very interesting development for people who wish to stay with the supercharger.

I have spoken with eaton re the TVS some time back -they didnt seem in any rush for the MINI application
It is a better charger than the current unit but still handicapped by basic design and this limits the boost/ ratio
From an engineers viewpoint no charger comes close to the twinscrew unit half the size and twice as good

well i've decided what i'm going to do, and i know i'm going to be criticised by some people on here:-

once the grs arrives and my uprated radiator is fitted, i'm going to ********* to have 450cc injectors and AFPR fitted and setup along with getting a newman/?1320 cam fitted either at 1320 or think mini. then i'm going back to 1320 to get the car dyno'd again to see where i'm at. then either do a remap with the 19% pulley or switch to 17% pulley with a remap.

i'm hoping the uprated intercooler + radiator will lower IATs by 5c at 7000 rpm (ie reducing IATs from 69 to 64)? feasible??

and that the 450cc injectors + AFPR will sort the AFR leaning out and possibly reduce the IATs a further 2-3c at most. the conversion should then be safe. a remap may be able to do the rest after this.

if remapping a 19% isn't feasible, then i'll go with a 17% pulley+new supercharger (both of which i have;blades not ground in) and a remap. but I would like to make use of what i have.

the GRS intercooler and 450cc injectors will complement whichever pulley i go with.
i will be getting kit to monitor IATs and AFR.

regards,

"the addict"

ps:maybe i should change my minitorque name to "crackhead"

330whp from the 2.0 Cobalts and I expect you'll be seeing this from a Mini one day in teh future

Sayanthan, nice to see someone trying a slightly different route to power. After going out in the ********* car today with the 20%, I was quite impressed with the power on the road. It certainly shifted well.

As Alex said, good to see a different approach, good luck with it all, look forward to seeing the results Should be some awesome power by the time you're finished.

Just speculatingof course...

Tuner 1 = GTT - I'd almost put money on that

These I'm sure but not willing to put money on it lol

Tuner 2 = 1320
Tuner 3 = *********
Tuner 4 = Lohen? - You've posted elsehwere about fuel filters.

The rest not to sure of, thinking likes of MINISpeed, BBR but more than likely non MINI2 sponsors.
