Hello and thank you all

Hello everyone.
I have had a Mini for many years now (two actually) but I had never thought of joining NAM or posting. But given all the great info and knowledge available in the site, I figured it was time to join the club.
I currently have an 06 R53, it just went through some major overhaulin - new supercharger and related components. I haven't made a lot of modifications, but it does have the MSD coil and wires, the Alta silicone intercooler couplings, and I am installing a CAI (DDM) in a few weeks.
I figured I would then install new supercharger pulley - undecided between 15 and 17%.
That may be all she wrote, apart from that, I don't want to go too radical - maybe an exhaust as a last addition.


I will tell you, almost every decision regarding repairs and what to get / do for and to the car has been influenced by the many threads, posts, and pictures in the North American Motoring site forums... That is why I also thank everyone here, for all your invaluable input.




I will post a pic or two in the next few days.
Speak to you all again soon.

Don't sweat comparing a 15% or 17% pulley too much. You will be happy with either. Looking forward to pics, and welcome!

Welcome to NAM! Looking forward to the picture of your R53. A supercharger pulley like Madness here is a great upgrade with all your new components. If you ever need anything or have any questions be sure to let me know.
