OK, so it has been a long time since I have been on here. I spent a few years overseas, 4 in total; 3 in Kuwait and 1 in Afghanistan. I have been back in the U.S. for a little over a year and I want to get back into hanging out with my fellow MINI owners!

So the reason I am posting on here right now is because I want to do some more upgrades to MINI-Bee! I have the Alta intake, the Miltek cat-back exhaust, 17% reduction pulley, M7 front strut tower brace, and I have blacked out all the exterior chrome.

So I want everyone's opinions on what they think I should do next. I do not track drive anymore but I do like a little spirited driving every once in awhile. I am contemplating on an air diverter for the intercooler, possibly the Alta or the GP. She runs a little hotter than I would like. Also, I am thinking about an ignition upgrade, OutMotoring's Stage 3 ignition kit. Please share your experiences and/or opinions. Thank you all in advanced!

 

Quaife ATB (automatic torque biasing) limited slip differential or StopTech Big Brake kit. Maybe a Schrick camshaft or OS Giken clutch/flywheel. The options are limited only by the depth of your pockets. It totally depends on what your goal is. Welcome home soldier!

 

Thanks for the info! And I am not a soldier. I am a Marine veteran (98-03). I spent my time overseas as government contractor supporting the Army, Marines, Air Force, Navy and DoD!

 

Once a soldier always a soldier. 82nd ABN vet here from 89-94. Thanks again Marine and welcome home!

 

Ooh Rah! Thank you for your service and Happy Veteran's Day!

 

Sounds to me like it's time to do a little suspension work.
