ECS Tuning - SEMA MINIs

Hello Guys,

We just got back from SEMA and glad to have a V8 MINI Cooper @v8_mini_slayer swap in the Sprintbooster Booth thanks to JRP Inc!

Here are some of the pictures incase you missed it.

Also ran into the Team from MotorTrend Network and others with the Hagerty Booth

This inspired MINI Superleggera created by Ant Stead, Drew Scott (Property brothers), and Chip Foose!!

I love the wheels that Foose put on the roadster. Is it electric?

Its electric and most of stuff was hidden, I talked to Ant and he could only show me a little bit.

Those wheels are Rotas and not anything special. I believe the hubs were MINI or old Miata.

It had a electric driveline and some crazy 0-60 in 2.6 secs. If i find the built sheet i will post up.

V8 MINI Slayer needs some wider flares or a wide body kit, then it's perfect!

Thanks for the update. I actually watched the show over the weekend. The show was entertaining, but the build is very cool.
