Newbie in the house!

Hello all. I just purchsed my first Mini. It is a 2003 S. It has many upgrades including aftermarket intercooler, ignition system, intake, brakes, exhaust (Borla), adjustable suspension with EDC (electronic dampening controller), sound system, several carbon fiber exterior pieces, and more.

I am not new to performance modifications but definitely new to Mini Coopers (my other cars are a Dodge SRT 10 and Impala SS).

I will take pics soon.

Thanks everyone. I already have a question. Like I said before this car is highly modified. I am trying to figure out the engine layout. Does the S have only one coolant tank or two? This car has two and it has a leak on the coolant tank that looks like it doesn't belong there. Actually the hose that is connected to this coolant tank has a red hard hose that eventually leads into the side of the intercooler and this hose leaks. Any ideas? I probably need to take some pictures.
