intake, volvo injectors, ebay catback and tune are all cheap, should have all of that done in a week, gonna hit the local LKQ's and look for a volvo T5

only things expensive are a supercharger with jcw pulley and the head, I'm skipping the head as the gains are not where it'll do me much good and I'll have a jcw supercharger by sunday

still looking for an LSD, I can drop my trans in one night if I can find a lsd to bolt into it!

jcw's are rare and expensive, I'm still going to be WAY under the cost of selling/buying one. Not that I really want one if I crash this car I wont feel bad, these r53's are only 5500 $ now, not so with a 10,000 $ + jcw if you can find one, i looked for 4 months and decided it's not worth it

 

Is an aftermarket LSD ok for your class? I ask as they are way better the OEM LSD is only 30% slip where the After markets start at 50%

 

supposed to be only factory options, I'm not competing at nationals and never will

pretty sure a geared type LSD wont work, not sure I want one as I get almost lift wheel spin, unless they have some that combine a clutch + gear LSD in one

 

I know there are like 3 makers of LSD for the MINI out there. Much more than that I dont know
