true, but that, to me, makes it a kit car and not a mini. It needs the A series engine in it to be a mini maybe a k-series or even the MINI cooper S block would be cool. but a non mini/rover engine makes it.... not a mini!
+ v-max scart supercharger kit for mpi mini £3,900!!
I see where you are coming from - but the amount of money he will be putting into his Mini just to get it up to speed it doesn't seem worth it (if he was going to go for a Supercharger kit)
Whats his other halfs Mini putting out as standard?
Not too keen on the K-Series, had never ending problems with customers having head gasket failures/over heating on the old 214/216 etc.
