long time listener blah blah..

Hi guys,

Have been following you and getting tips for many years.

Driving a 2005 Mini Cooper S, bought in 2013.
Mods.
17% reduction pulley
4% oversize crank pulley
Custom Airbox (moved the ecu into the box in order to make the box bigger and diverted an cold aircon line into the box for cooler air, also holds a beer ha ha)
Sports racing suspension, lowered with camber
Performance lower engine mount
Viper catalytic converter
Racing headers
Replaced stereo and speakers with a new amp (that was fun NOT).

Looking forward to participating in a few discussions on these awesome cars.

Welcome.


Looks like you have a great start, and you are right about the Audio Swap, that can be a pain to do right.


Motor On!

Welcome to NAM. Glad you took the time to get involved.

There is an immense amount of information here on your model of car between the threads, the members and the vendors. Hopefully you can add to the almost 12,000 drivetrain mod threads in the Gen1 section.
