Well, it didnt escalate as quickly as you would imagine. But soon the engine No2 will be rebuilt so that it changes the 170k kms engine which is perfectly working both as a daily and a track toy. Aiming for a healthy 320whp engine with a relatively flat torque curve revving up to 7.800rpm. (It is possible )

Exhaust manifold is made in greece from Karagiannis exhaust shop and that specific one was making around 500hp in another setup. Turbo is a gtx2860 gen2 AR64 which runs out of puff at around 400 meth injected.
The combo of manifold and that turbo will probably give me power full boost from 3000rpm as minis are capable of spooling much greater turbos from 3500rpm.
As I said, I am aiming for less to keep the engine alive for more. Partial Track use and everyday B roads is my dream, so I wont sacrifice low end torque for high figures.

I was able to get 386WHP out of my GTX2860R. Boost peaked at 30PSI around 4.5K, then dropped off to mid 20's at 7.5K. Be sure to use lotsa WMI --- maybe a jet at each port, otherwise the ECU won't see enough fuel. Most builders say OEM pump / injectors aren't big enough for 400+HP --- guess they aren't aware of WMI. My 520WHP '07 DD is happy with OEM fuel system and a 5-jet WMI.

Yes, Cat Cams, "medium grind" --- Manic didn't like tuning for their serious version. Hope you have a good, mini-experienced tuner. My current build is documented here --- From the “Baddest” to the “Deadest”

I wasn't aware of this ratio or associated record, but let's use my last posted HP numbers, 520WHP. Using an online conversion, 520WHP is 589BHP. And now 90 posts. To be fair, MT isn't my primary forum. Most of my posts are on NAM with 1625 posts. Shouldn't this be the ratio that's most appropriate?

My tuner is Revlimit. Currently holding the hp record for r56. A little more than 600hp but not yet announced due to a personal debate between tuners in greece . When the itherone reaches 590 my tuner will post the actual number

All new parts boxed, old parts bagged and tagged awaiting the start of the rebuild at at Technosport in Brent Cross.
The head is off for a clean up, minimal skim just to freshen the surface ,a 3 angle valve job and the block is to be cleaned, decked, bored and honed before the new parts get...
Here is the start of my 6th mini,
i had a little break with more family cars but now the little one is older I got the green light for a mini again.

The less said about the GP the better, but I'm an idiot and keep coming back to Mini's!
The hunt began for a GP to replace the GP, that proved difficult so settled for a JCW that stands out a tad!
This one was on the Mini used site, a quick phonecall later and I had a deposit on it and that...
After having my 350z for a year it had got a little boring tbh, so I started looking to get into minis again. I didn’t want to go through the torture of modding another one from scratch, so I began the hunt for a well spec’d car.
I had to sell the zed to finance part of the purchase so I was in...
Looking for advice and experience about fitting a rear cage on my r56. Do I need to strip the headlining or can it be fitted with the removal of rear panels etc?
Who has one and what make is it, costs involved?
Thanks.
Geoff.
