Thank You
Soon enough, still finishing the bay. To then complete the body...
Headed for full blown Import Nights with the power to drag.
I went to far, but I will finish what I started two .5 years ago, soon.

No!!!!!!!! It's not the first S motor I've ever seen out of a car.
Was just asking what you were going to do with it.
Road race - Drag- whatever
Then again, Maybe I should ask your "SPONSOR" ?

I dont have one yet...I went too far... I sent it up with everything.... everthing for a speed demon machine @ the same time I made it look good.... ok my opinion but still...it's set up for Import Night Show... Like lets say ,Fast and the furious type. I did not spare any minor detail..... as of yet.
Pending breaks and rims and tires for a Hot Night Show.
Maybe a Show with a lunch time drag??

As it stands
Without the perdy colors..and coatings aside
The motor is (8k miles original) 02 MCS w/ custom head
It has a turbo with, Intake manifold and runners are ported
throttle body, runners ported, injectors, fuel pump, coil w performance plugs and wires, the 0% crank right now, front mount oil cooled that bleeds Motul, AGS 2, mounts (for now) , strut brace, stage 3 clutch w/ quaife, working on twin cooling system now, EMS, Coilover, Borla exhaust, body kit , seats w/ 5 point harness D&P, 6 point roll cage fully (heavy but looks
), removed rear seat, custom wells will (In my minds eye) roll on big fat tires for show, slicks for the half time added catch can, gauges, sensors, short shift.... and what not. As I leveled the car down to nuts and bolts and built her a piece at a time, I felt she deserved to be classified unique. In that I lost my head and copper chrome dipped almost eveything, and candy painted the rest. Doesn't seem like a big deal, but keep that in mind when you think of how many bolts and brackets and what not there are
. So it's not a diss, what you wrote, I just think most don't go this route. You usually find it in a show car. But no... I refused
to accept that and now I have a mini monster that looks so perdy I'd hate to drive it. Just thinking of the road debris freaks my out. All though she has aluminum guards, one can go by. So I bought a flat bed to get her around when she's ready. My intentions I guess at this point is one to take her to Auto Show "Custom" like Hot Import Night and run her @ the Quarter every now and then @ Moroso. I've been working on Mini's since early O2 and may use her as a promo to get more clients in the performance arena as I like to work on them.
OR an irrational investment towards my future coffin.
Still need brakes and tunes, rims and tires and I'm good to go 6ft under.
Some go and some show.

what i WANT to know... which you seem to be avoiding... or misunderstanding...
is...
are you using a factory throttle body that is modifed to 63mm or are you using a throttle body off of a differnt car.
i don't mean to be rude i am just trying to be clear...
