Just had the new charger installed. My original charger was making some unhealthy noises lately and Eric was worried about it. I recently purchased a brand new S/C that was taken off a car at the dealer before delivery to the customer in order to upgrade to the full JCW kit. Eric @ Helix inspected the charger and said it definitely was brand new. Put in new oil, filter and a new SC belt as well.
Car is pushing more boost now than it did on the original 02 charger. See you guys in Rochester.

It was 29 when we were at Daytona. Sweatshirt for me. You had to get a taxi after dinner because it was to cold for you.......

I better be careful I still owe you some money.

On the plus side, cooler ambient temperatures up here in Rochester mean denser air, (which equals slightly more horsepower)! Yeah! Plump up those dyno numbers!!!

Louisville, KY. Lots of Mini enthusiasts here and in Cincinnati/Columbus OH, Nashville, Indianapolis. I'm sure we could make it worth your while to come over this way.

How many cars do you need to tune to make the trip worth it?

Why the heck am I driving 9 hours to Rochester if you're going to be less than 2 hours away from me (mid ohio) in june?!? Is there a schedule of these things posted somewhere I'm not aware of??? Geez.

Oh well, a good road trip would do me good.

Injector upgrade

To those going to this tune and upgrading to bigger injectors, let me know if you want to sell your old 380cc Helix or JCW injectors, I'd be happy to get them off your hands. Just send me a PM.
