Is this the same mini that was at the last nats?
Very nice... But the engine bay looked very very busy not much room for a turbo if it is the same car...
Where abouts are you looking to mount the turbo? And the intercooler ect..?
Cheers

so the fun and noise of the nats is over for another year and i must say that it was the best year ever....... Car ran fine all weekend and had a huge response from the crowd...... Wanted to stop at wakefield on the way back but the headaches and hand overs prevented it...... See sum of you at power cruise in march then.....
