Hey Guys, I'm an FNG, just trying to get the skinny on anything new in NAM. Been a longtime lurker here and r/mini.

I have a 2012 R56S, JCW Aero Package, Akrapovic Exhaust, Akrapovic Downpipe, Forge FMIC, Engineering Oil Catch Can, DDMWorks Street Intake, Manic Stage 2 ECU Tune, Factory Sport Sway Bars, Megan Racing EU Street Coilovers, NM Engineering Oil Catch Can.

Coming Soon: Cravenspeed Short Shifter, NM Engineering Front Strut Brace, GP Belly Pan, GP Rear Diffuser.

I don't have pics at the moment, I'm at work. But I'll post them sometime this week.

 

Welcome. Looks like you've already built your MINI up pretty well. Let us know if we can help.

 

Thanks. I actually got most of my parts from you, working through Patrick at Bimmer Rescue in Richmond, VA late last year. About the only thing I didn't do with parts you supplied was the Manic Tune. I've had a few questions about different things since the project, but I really love the set up so far.

I wish I had a little more grunt from the exhaust note, the Akrapovic is very civilized in the MCS (though not so much in the JCW, I hear). I wish I have a little more whp on my pulls, but thats normal. I wish I had a little more aggressive (wider, either from spacers or better wheels) wheelbase. But these things are normal for most of my project.

A modder's job is never done, amirite?

 

Hi and welcome to the nam family. Post up some pics of your ride when you can!
