Guys, I plan to order the MTH tuning kit (software + manifold) next week. Additional suggestions very welcome. Need experts advise dahil mukhang tuloy tuloy na mods ko. Macky, have you ordered yours?

Was thinking of selling my Mini One Auto/Tiptronic and get an MCS manual, but the automatic transmission really works best for me, so am really just gonna settle increasing the hp in my mini.

Enchong, where did you get the body kits for your cooper?

Monday EB Location

Crepes and Something (I'm not sure if that something was because Eric, wasn't sure of the name or if yun talaga ang name ng place)
It is between UCC and Mcdo with parking directly at the back, facing Crepes. Enter thru the side road of UCC and enter parking at the right.

See you guys later!

John

Club MINI PH members:

You guys in interested to join the AAP Rally & Treasure Hunt this Sunday?
Get Petron Xtra Unleaded & official rally shirts.
4 persons per team, P500 registration fee if AAP member (1300 if not)

It would be fun to have a lot of MINIs running around the metropolis!
We plan to join ourselves, maybe more than 1 entry as we have 3 AAP members in the family.

Registration starts at 6AM at Petron Macapagal Hi-way.
Flag off at 8AM.
Call 705 1910 or 705 1906 at AAP, look for Mark Desales for details.
or check out www.aaphilippines.org

Oh man, the AAP Rally was fun - we should do it ourselves within the Club. Pics at http://pg.photos.yahoo.com/ph/bm5er/album?.dir=272dscd. We did not really expect anything, like win, as it was our first time to join and instructions were given 2 minutes before flag off. Kasi none of you went to join us (he, he), we ended up with the best award: &";The WOW! Car Award"; (along with gas coupons) for bringing the best looking car, being the only MINI there. And the biggest surprise of the day, we went away with the 2nd Runner-Up Trophy! (along with gas coupons, again) Add to that: Domino's pizza, coffee & donuts for breakfast, unlimited bottled water, at start off (along with gas coupons); Lunch reception at the awarding, 4 souvenir shirts for our team, the BMW MINI.

Eric,
Congrats!!! Could not make out some personalities in the Photos. Was that Gus Lagman & Dodie Ayuyao awarding you? Gus Lagman is the business partner of my father, and quite close to the family. I know he's a car enthusiasts, and if i'm not mistaken, the current president of a rally association.

D,
You are right about Gus & Dodie. Gus chatted briefly about Ed Castaneda & PCS & UUCP - am sure he would have recognized you had you been there.

Our Fuel is really dirty!!!

Brought the MCS this afternoon for fuel system cleaning. I ask Naji of Autosport to check what was happenning.

Symptoms: engine cuts off by itself, and chokes. Usually on 2nd and 3rd gear when running. And when it starts to die, a down shift in the gear does not help, the engine dies. BTW, fuel indicator shows empty inspite of it being full.

So far, they are replacing a VERY dirty fuel filter, cleaning the fuel line, empty the tank (which by the way if FULL, sayang tapon na), basically everything that has to do with the fuel system. as of late this pm, that's their findings. Hopefully I get the mcs tom afternoon.

WHAT GAS SHOULD I CARRY? WHAT'S CLEAN?
