Lets just say its something very cool that will make your car allot funner to drive.

I think in about a week those that know should be able to talk about it. Jan would love to spill the beans but as his friend I have to keep telling him to wait. New products take time and we all know to well what happens on NAM when you talk about stuff during the R&D stage. I had the the idea but Jan had the know how and the people to pull it off. All he needed was a little nudge and he took with the project like he was possessed. My involvement was just showing him something that might work so I'm not taking credit for anything.

This "thing" could be very very cool.

Looks like there are two plugs-hydraulic fittings? So a pump of some sort?

Fuel pump?

I can't see a different A/C or power steering pump as a performance thing.

Something that spins off the tail pipe...

You finally found the muffler bearing?! A titanium/moly alloy should be good for at least 5hp!

It's not an M62, that blower is way too big for the 1.6. Who said it was even a blower?

The Stroker is alive and well. Jan's dragster is currently the only car I know of with a working stroker motor. It's currently awaiting some comptuer related parts.

A pump for the water-intercooler.

No drama, this isn't the M62 thread, he asked if it was an M62, I said "No, that's too big". Based on the R&D work RMW has done, and conversations with Jan, it is .

If DDM get's theirs working properly (And I hope they do) it's just another route to take in the MINI mod community. I wish them the best of luck.

This of course is all null, because nobody even admitted that it was an aftermarket supercharger . It's Jan's new warp drive system and the specific part you're looking at is the "Deuterium pump pulley". Suffice to say when more info is released in the coming weeks, it will be impressive .

No M62
No Turbo
No water pump
No Water injection (I already have that)
No crazy thing that claims to do something amazing.
Nothing made from a new material found in an asteroid that fell on Jan
No Drama! Give it a week or two and you will find out.

Jan was hit by an asteroid? . No wonder he's been too busy to head to the dyno!

A joke right, your fans will be peeing all over themselves waiting. The grandmaster Jan has to keep the suspence level of this blog high.

All joking aside, if Jan had his way he would tell everyone. I'm the one holding him and the rest back. It's bad enough he has been sending photos to everyone and their brother.

I don't want the haters to come just yet .
