Those are some amazing numbers on a stock exhaust! That's perfect for me because that's one less thing that I have to buy because I'm too poor to afford an exhaust but am 100% willing to buy a turbo kit. The next best thing is the sleeper look 
! No one would break into a seemingly stock mini and it gives a little advantage on the street...

--no price too high to pay to know you'll never get served by a "Fast and the Furious" wannabe with a replica of the Wright Brothers' flyer bolted to his decklid- even if he's "got NOZ" !

Twincharged MCS Customer Response
The other Thread is getting way to long, so I am starting a new one.
Anyway, that is my car that Hubie and Mike have totally made over. It is running 250 at the wheels with stock exhaust. So far I have nothing but great times with this car and haven't had any issues what so ever. In fact I am still getting 320+ miles to aTANK when I don't have my foot into it all the time (which is hard to do!). On the way home from NJ to MD I was cruising between 70-75 and punching it after the tolls, which was a BLAST! The look on peoples faces can only be described in one word "Priceless" when they hear that BOV. There head's look all around trying to figure out what it was, and then they stare at the Mini. Hubie has put out a great KIT, and take my word for it, if you have the money "GET IT" this kit not only looks professional but the performance is also at a professional level as well. The shop, the people working for him, the parts he use, all professional. I know a lot of other people are trying to come out with kits like it, but when you sit down and start chalking up who has more expertise in this area, Hubie comes out on top. That is why I went with him, he knows what he is talking about and won't bs you, and he has had this kit on his car for a year now, with over 10,000 miles on it with no problems. He is how you say "Keeping it real"
Bottom Line: This is my daily driver, it still holds amazing gas mileage, and when I need it, I have 250 wheel hp at a touch of a gas pedal.
Kill list so far:
Evo
R32
Srt-4
and many more to come

after spending 2 days with him I am confident that this system is the best out there. The finish on his parts is unreal. Great staff with Jann-Michael. Would love to see a frankenstein motor in the future...

Well if you do the math, a 2500 pound car with 250 wheel hp, and thats if it cuts a good light, and hooks up really well. 12.50 in a quarter, or you can go here http://robrobinette.com/et.htm But just remember hooking up is the key, so driving this car can be a little tricky, too much gas in 1st will just spin.
As in price only Hubie can quote on this, so give him a call.

heh.... HOT DAMN, and PHARK ME!!!
... looking at pictures is one thing, but hearing it in the video, yes, pants are stained.
how much is the kit?
MCS + Hubies Turbo + AWD = Best Car ever made.

I think I'll keep quiet about my progress until complete. I need to regain the title of "fastest MINI on Cape Cod" from a certain nitrous loving gentleman.
Until then, I'm brushing up on my second language...German.
