Hello! Figured I would do an intro thread since I am new to this site. My name is Ben, bought my first MINI in July. Got a solid deal on an '11 All4, and immediately fixed some of the issues I didn't like about it. Lowered and rear sway were my main focus, but wanted to hear the spool and BOV so I went with an NM intake and Burger.


While I am new to MINI, I'm not new to modifying vehicles, which my signature should represent. The countryman is my DD, I have a Civic Hatch I am building for the track, and Land Cruiser for offroading, towing and nasty pow day travels. I also have 2 civic wagons that just kind of exist anymore lol.


Plans for the Countryman have varied, but I think I have settled on some simple mods for what I think it should actually be: twin scroll disco potato, front mount and hard ic piping, full 3 inch back, new ECU, bull bar with some LED lights and some rally-esque wheels. But this is all back seat to finishing my racecar, which is quite close to being done, just chasing down wiring nonsense.


Any questions, feel free to ask!!

 

Post up some pics, would like to see you set up. And congrats on the Countryman.

 

Photobucket is being an absolute pain. I am trying to get it to work, but if all else fails, I have tons of pics of my cars and pups on my Instgram. bkmc24 is my username there as well.
