Ok,

Parts (like 1 million of them) have arrived

Sexy bit of kit if I do say so myself!
Was going to get straight into it but will take a few weeks/months now... planning on cleaning, tidying and POR 20 in the engine ancillaries... this time will take before and after pics!

Here is the TB with the turbo stub on: - More to come as I progress:

About $2k mate. Exchange rate and customs hit me with tax in import.

Mate with those girly gloves you still won't get your hands dirty :-)

Yes you are the designated degreaser. Then the "calm down Pete, we will work out what you have done wrong again" person.

Cool?

$2k ain't bad if you gotta get things made. Hard to get a tb that suits a setup for a mini.

$1.5k if you could get around import duty???

For approx £1000 you get the works!
TB
ECU
SENSORS
WIRING
CRANK WHEEL
COIL PACKS
SPARK LEADS
INLET MANIFOLD
Etc

Couldn't put together myself cheaper otherwise I would have.
You don't need anything else to go EFI. This kit is complete. Mine needs a few bits added and others removed (SC provides all of it) as its a Turbo setup obviously.

Pete.
