Otherwise this thread has denigrated to the point of the absurd, much like many other threads on the increasingly becoming irrelevant NAM.
it's the natural way of things ...run outta mods and well ....not much to discuss .

So if there is no speed limiter on the car why is it that my car does no more than 133 mph even after I have done all my upgrades? (see my sig).
This is specialy with a bigger valve head/cam!!

Drag coefficient similar to that of a cinderblock?
Oh, and with an 02, the gearing probably plays a part.

There are some videos of a modified MCS on streetfire.com topping out at 150 mph quite easily. I was sort of jealous after watching them. Anyone else seen or heard of this Mini?
