I'm A New Owner Of 2003 Mini S

Want To Know If Adding A 15 Degree Pulley To The Supercharger, A Cold Air Intake, And New Pipes Will Decrease My Gas Mileage Or Will It Remain The Same?

I lost about 3 miles to the gallon , but i'd do it again in a heartbeat! (and it's a 15 PERCENT(reduction in size) pulley.)

Just keep telling yourself you are making the car more, efficient. By doing that your doing something .

I done lots of things to my mustang course it only gets 10mpg in the cty right now. Thats why it's parked and a mini is on the way

Howdy Doo!

Hey everyone, my name is David, and i'm looking forward to getting my Mini in the spring. I've been searching for some time now discovering wat i want. The MCS really excites me as being a really fun car to drive, and just be in. So i'm looking forward to joining the ranks of the Mini Army. I'm also looking forward to meeting new people and making new friends. Talk to everyone soon!


David

If the new people would post where they are located it would help clubs contact them via pm to see if they might want to join.

Hi, my name is Angela. I am in Dallas, TX. My husband Scott and I each got a mini a few weeks ago. Mine, Bubble, is a '06 PW/B MCS. Scott's, Squeak, is a '06 AB MCS. We ordered them at the same time, and they actually arrived at the dealership the same day (two different boats, though). I refer to them as the twins. They are loads of fun - and sometimes drive both when we can't agree which one to take! LOL!

hello

Hi everyone! I just got my 2006 MCS a few days ago and I love it! This is my first MINI and I couldn't be happier! I can't wait to meet other MINI lovers in my area and go to some of the club events.

'06 chili red MCS, black bonnet stripes, cold weather package, sport package, sunroof, and many mods to come!

I live in the Seattle area. I just put in my order for a '06 Cooper S in Chili Red with Black Bonnet Stripes. Sounds like I am in for a long wait - I can't get in the production line until August with a delivery of October. Did anyone else have to wait that long? :(

Just got my 06 LY MCC - Named him Mr Sun - we'll be in the St Louis Mo area looking to meet and greet the wonderful members from the stlmini.com group.

Looks like we made a great buying call and are going to meet a lot of fun people.
