History
Bought the car used in 2010 just to build it up. Had 36K on it. Two years later, it has 57K. I'm calling it "one of, if not THE baddest Mini in Northern NV". Dyno tuned at Cobb by Alta (Jeff Perrin). Chart can be viewed at www.accessecu.com/dyno/ - Cobb's Surgeline facility.
Pics of Dual OCC.

Exterior
No mods. The intent is to drive around in a "sleeper". Since there's no satellite radio, the antenna has been removed. Front license plate was moved up a little, so it doesn't block airflow to the FMIC.
-----
Interior
Pics of the AquaMist HFS-4 --- Water / Methanol Injection system tank, and added gauges --- Boost, WMI, and Coolant Temp. Also the WMI and FCD controls inside the glove box.

In-Car Entertainment
OEM radio, CD player and best of all, my spouse.

Under the Hood
Pics of the Garrett and holes under the hood so it will fit. Note the Manual Boost Controller, catless 3" down pipe, Dual OCC, K & N Typhoon air filter, external BOV, and custom turbo air inlet piping. WMI inlet and one of the FCD hookups. Can't take a pic of the OS Giken clutch / flywheel and LSD, Thumpers TPR1 head, or the FMIC.
