BabeWatch! In college, we'd put the show on, no volume, and crank the stereo..... I mean, even without dialog, the plot was the same (non-existant or irrelevant). Smart programming by the directors. Hotties in spandex! Prime time too! Isn't America a great country?

Oh yeah. Back on topic.... If the 62 is a boob job, Pam Anderson better watch out! She's no longer the biggest on the beach!

has anyone done the M7 Supercharger rebuild? maybe Randy can chime in and explain how much their rebuild ups the HP for the stock sc. it's $700 for the rebuild, if it gets me 25 hp, sweet, better deal than the M62 SC but of course we have to see.

 

I would be true amaized if that netted 25hp. From what I remember, all it is, is a port and polish on the SC housing. Highly unlikely that you could gain 25hp just from that. The best part about the m62 is that the extra 40whp is only the begining. Should be interesting to see what SpiderX will pull.

 

yeah i'm sure it's not 25 hp, just throwing numbers out. just curious to what Randy at M7 may say about it. on the website it says a 20% increase in efficiency. Guess we just have to wait until someone has it and posts and info they may have on it.

 

either way m62 will yield alot better gains
because it isn't a 'rebuild' M7 is doing

 

Now that did not come across very nice did it.....?

We offer the ported and polished unit as a tool to accheive a certain level of
performance in out Cosworth package. I have no idea where 25hp come from
as that would be close to impossible by porting alone.

There has been no proof anywhere on this board that I could find that showed it made any horsepower at all. I am not sure why anyone would think that the M62 is going to make 300hp on a mini anyway. If you bothered to read all of the threads on turbos which are way more efficient you would find there are very few of them even making 300hp. That said, I really like the thought of having more low end torque so this intrigues me.

 

The description of the M7 SC on their site doesn't state that SC increases flow by 20%, but that the AGS increased the flow to the SC by 20% over the stock TB to SC plenum. I believe they stated the fact to show that by "opening and smoothing the interior surfaces of the induction system produces significant gains in airflow."-M7

 

i am sorry if i didn't sound too nice.

 

No problema....

Peter I thought you were Norwegian?

Cheers, this stuff's going to be I think how Peter used to put it "F#&%ING Incredible"? Is that the right phrase?

Im SO pumped.

Hey now....Swedish all the way my man.

Yes it is exciting times here at M7... The M62 will be the biggest power uppgrade the MINI community, mark my word.

And tomorrow the new Air Plate Diverter (M7 APD) look for it in the
vendor announcement.

Why not just give us a preview tonight? Pretty please Peter

 

HELL YEAH! Just like your's truely... Well not really... I'm Swedish-German-Italian, or as my friends like to call me the "Swedish Meatball"

ANYWAY... I so can't wait for this stuff. I think I'll be an insomniac until I get one. Even then I prolly will be because I'll be out driving it all night.

Effing A

Sorry about the slight delay in total satisfaction....

But I can say this...You want more performance, and Carbon Fiber in a deep
layer of glossy goodness ....

The rest tomorrow night.

Will the MP62 be at the Lime Rock BMW Historic Races Sept 4th??? Sure would like to see it.

 

 

It does not look like it.......at least from my end..... the interesting thing is that there is really nothing to see unless the car is displayed with the front end off...... unlike the twin charge which has the extra piping, the 62 looks the same.... the water pump gives it away but is not obvious that there is a change..... I could charge everyone a "quarter" to ride in the car

I am trying to get it to Nashville and it will be at Monterey..... and anyone interested can come to Atlanta as my car will be a rolling demo.

Dave assures me that the kit will not be in short supply once the design is finished/tested etc. The early adopters will be around and I'm sure posting on the performance....... with Peter involved with his photography skills I'm sure there will be great images to see online.....

Do you take paypal?

Has anyone asked "how does it sound"? So how does it sound...sound clip?
*Sorry but I love the supercharger sound; the FMIC was a monster!*

 

Not to be/sound like a smarta$$ .....edit, can't leave that stuff in there. maybe taken in the wrong contxt..... Maybe a deeper tone, but I can let Dave or Bob or the guy in Asheville answer for sure.

 

My car has a Milltek header and cat-back and is louder than stock..... the stock 62 fitted car was very quiet in comparison

 

Would you care to elaborate on "biggest power upgrade"?

 

The thing comes in the biggest box!

Matt

 

Or, biggest strain on your wallet?

 

I would think the JCW "package" would take the cake in both those departments.. and is significantly more involved in installing... and the JCW kit is so "stock" now... The upcoming M62 will be the King of the Hill!

.. what's next?.. how 'bout the Getrag AWD kit!
