My Lightening Blue R58 named "Hodor"

Just realized I never updated my profile or shared any pics of my new to me MINI I have names Hodor.


I learned a lot from owning my Clubman of what I wanted and how to do it so after a few months of owning him I am almost done with my list " Almost"


I have not got it on a Dyno machine but so far its a lot faster then my previous stage 2 Clubman.


Ill try and list all my Current Mods and a couple I am still working on under pictures.













Hodor came equipped with
JCW Aero Kit
JCW Full Tuning Kit
JCW Interior Kit


I have added:
Manic Stage 2 (Barbeque Mode on Map C)
Mario Down Pipe
Alta Turbo Spring upgrade
M7 CAI
Front Mount Intercooler
M7 Pre-Intercooler Charge Pipe
M7 Heat shield
D2 Air Racing Bags
Air-Lift Management System
Custom Hardwood floor in Hatch to hide all lines and wires
15mm Spacers on front to clear everything for now until install new wheels)
Removed Second Cat (Left resonator on for now)


Thinks I still have in progress:
M7 Oil Catch Can (On order)
Blue undercar LED System ( 1/2 way installed)
Digital Boost gage with mounting pod. (On order)
Advant wheels (No REP junk) (On order)
Custom System in hatch(have it all just not had time to install yet except for all wires)




I'm sure I have forgotten some things hard to remember it all lol

Yikes, that's a serious bunch of mods right there. No suspension mods that I can see. Car must handle pretty well on that track I bet. Something tells me the R58 is the best track car in the line (not that I have any experience with it).
