i know the guys there have alot of work on at the min but i was wondering when this kit is going to be coming out??

thanks Chris.

 

I bet if you send Jan the $$, he'll figure it out sooner than later

 

when the new r59 comes out... j/k maybe you should pm Jan

 

I wanna know when that rotrex kits going to be out.
I want that!

 

that my friend is ALL i'm saving my money for . it's the end be all for me . lots of torque for real world driving . it's everything the mini should've been from jump off .

 

im not having a go at Jan! just wondering when the release date is.

i know they have a lot on there. what with the rotex and the new engine and problaby countless other things.

thanks

Chris.

 

I know I'm waiting for a response! I've been starring at his Red Devil for months now and I want a ballpark figure so I know how much it will cost for my build! Plus, a GT35R would compliment it nicely.

 

GT35R OMG! thats 2 big!:O

 

Shhh..It's just fine on a 2.0L....

 

Nah, Subie guys make it work all the time with either the 2.0 or the 2.5

 

No I know it would work but that would be so much lag.

 

on a 2.5L, yes. GT30 or GT32 on the 2.0L. The GT35/2.5L is good for 400+whp and 3500rpm spool.

 

My sources say it's good to up to 600HP. Might be just a hair big for the 2.0L. I might scale it down. I was gonna go with a GT3071R but I am gonna go inbetween those two in the end. I wonder what turbo Jan went with on his red car...

 

Well that sounds sweet! Yea that car is sick!

 

I did say '400+whp' didn't I? That means more than 400BHP, a lot more. Normally on a Subaru, 20% losses on the drivetrain vs. 12% on the MINI, so 500+HP at the crank (depends on mods...meth of water injection, FMIC, etc).

 

How about the loss of tire tread every time you step on it .

Longboard

 

my buddy has a full Cosworth 2.5L longblock that will do 10k rpm and 800hp sitting in his basement. <drool>

 

Jan better have it available by the time I get done with basic training!

 

the scooby guys have NOTHING on the EVo guys! 800bhp is childs play to them. 1000bhp 2.0 or 2.3s is where its at for them!

also you can have a HTA conversion done to the 35's which makes them spool pretty quick on a 2.0. thats what Buschur uses and he is getting full boost (30+psi) under 5K.

i think the 2.0 conversion will really open up the turbo market for the MINI. a GT30R al of a sudden is the normal sized turbo to be running.

also with the Rotex kit they are coming out with, big power and driveability should be on the cards....

thanks Chris.

 

But does it move the foundation?

 

It wouldn't be the $15K Cosworth 2.5L that T-Rex Motorsport built is it? Pushing like 850HP.

 

I believe it was built by Cosworth for that guy, but then TRex sponsored him, so, he sold it to my buddy. It's still in a crate. I can post pics later when I log back into my profile on this machine (running an install at the moment)

 

I know what motor it is then. That thing is sick.
