I was wondering if it is possible to get a b.ov. and a f.m.i.c for the mini cooper S. I am well aware that a supercharger does not need a blow off valve but i now people with cars that are super charged that have them. I love the sound and think that it would be a neat addition to the s.c. MY other question is the stock S.c. compatible with any type of Front mounted intercooler. Once again it is not needed but can be put on. THnax :smile:

I have seen the Frount mount Intercooler on the Nunzo Mini race car but no company I know of has made on yet. Forge Motorsport has said they are working on one (I think still on the drawing board) when I spoke to them a couple of months ago. The major problem with a FMIC on a mini is space, there is not allot of room to mount one..

Try this Blow off valve. I believe Andy brought this to our attention.

If no one has PM'd you as of yet, ask Randy Webb. He is in the process of refining a unit that is looking quite appealing. You can get some info here:

If interested, call him directly to get the scoop.
