Seeing so Many Minis Out there It would be nice to see some
engine bays of various setups:

• Supercharged
• Aftermarket Supercharded
• TwinTurbo (Alta etc)
• Turbo Only
• Nitrous
• N/A (! ?)

Please do not make a debate in this thread!
I believe dynoplots are not necessary since anyone can make numbers

Please keep this thread clean!

 

esmturbo- Turbo Only- i think hes running Garrett GT 3071





AZMCS- Turbo Only- Garrett GT2871R





Mine- Turbo Only- Garrett GT2876





Turbo Only kits created by Dr. Fuh.

 

i ccant see the pics

 

me neither!

 

try firefox, i'm good here.

 

Good here too on Safari 4

 

it works now he fixed it

 

R50 Turbo Only- 230whp @ 15psi was max for stock cooper map sensor







didnt break the 300whp mark, but still impressive for a cooper

 

That cooper setup is trick. True sleeper status aside from the core in the front bumper.

 

thats awesome...

 

woah, turbo R50!

do the turbo-only MCS guys need to change any engine internals?

 

Yes!

 

RMW 2.0L TVS / 400

 

See the sig

 

actually, the answer is NO.

We have made 397whp on stock engine using our base turbo kit (gt2871), custom intake manifold, front mount intercooler, custom fuel system running VP MS109.

you can easily make 300whp on the stock engine (stock intake manifold and fuel system) by removing the s/c and bolting on a turbo conversion kit (incl. electric water pump and upgraded I/C). the weak link is the factory piston and upgrading them to one of our forged designs manufactured by JE Pistons is recommended, but with proper tuning, the engine can reliably produce the power running pump gas (91 octane)

 

launched it down Paradise Road in Las Vegas during SEMA, so that makes this a street car in my book......

 

11.77 @ 115 on slicks

12.16 @ 119 on 195 50 15 drag radials

 

I think they were asking about the standard Cooper R50 turbo DR FUH.

I would think you'd need deep dish forged pistons at a bare minimum(or cheap out and plunk on a head spacer to melt your stock pistons). Uprated exhaust valves would be nice to handle the high exhaust temps. If you cheap out go ahead and play with the boost until the stock rods or crank let go!

hey Paul, what size turbo are you using? One clean-looking FAST MINI

 

sick cars in here

 

I wish i was there to see that...

 

Made By Dr Fuh (ABF Performance)
but in Europe

That was the first setup: Twincharged stock engine: internals and head
for more than 20K Km









Now its Turbo only by ABF performance
and some nitrous

 

thats great!
This is an awesome thread... I'm trying not to look at my bank statment right now.......Must....NOT...............Spend......... ...more..........

I WANT ONE!

 

Longboard I used to keep up to date with your MINI's day-to-day progress, but what are the current #'s you're putting down? You have your latest dyno?

 

Nice! Any current pics?
