New Mini Owner in Cincinnati, OH

Hi everyone, I just picked up an 04 MCS last week. I have already satarted to mod it a bit, currently it has K&N intake and one ball exhaust. I have a few more parts on the way. I'm new to Mini's but not cars. I also own a 1975 Triumph Spitfire 1500 that I enjoy Working on and driving with the British Car Club here in Cincinnati. I also have a few motorcycles to play with. I'm a true gearhead and aircraft mechanic by trade. I look foward to contributing to this site and meeting some new people.

Mike

Welcome Mike.

Nice picture of the MINI, your Spitfire looks excellent.

Are you planning to put a lot of Carbon on your MINI, the Buell has a bit, nicely done.

Thanks, The mini wont see the Amount of CF the Buell has,

My Spit is more of a driver. It has a lot of go fast parts (Cam, built High Comp. head, full electronic ignition, Dual 45mm weber carb, 4-1 header, and exhaust) along with a great suspension setup.
