Si_GTi's progress thread. Status: FOR SALE

Ahh nice. Went for the golf myself Was tempted by a JCW GP mini cooper S though

They have been tempting me for a while now.

Get some pics up when she arrives si.

[6N2 GTI 00]

Yeah get some pics up

What power is she putting out?

[Si_GTi]

Not sure what the power output is, but will get the car on a rolling road once she is in my hands. Standard car is 163bhp + DaveF airbox + exhaust + Alta Performance 15% 2.0 pulley = ???bhp!

Alta's website says "With a 15% pulley the rise in boost pressure will increase 15to 20 horse power. No other modifications to ECU etc., required. Customers with other existing modifications or those seeking more HP the results can be even better with the addition of a header, intake, intercooler and exhaust!"

Seller reckons the car might have around 190bhp. It goes like the clappers! Certainly feels faster than the Clio 172 Cup that I've driven previously, mainly because the supercharger responds instantaneously

[6N2 GTI 00]

Awesome Stuff
The Mini has somany performance parts available which is great!
Anything over 180bhp in a car of that size is going to be fun

[Si_GTi]

[6N2 GTI 00]

Hi all,

Although the car has been up for sale on ClubPolo, Edition38 and a couple of other places for a couple of weeks now, I hadn't added it here on uk-polos!

So its now listed in the For Sale area: click me!

Cheers

Mini Cooper news: its still very quick and a lot of fun. I've started looking at possible wheel purchases... lightweight OZ Ultraleggera perhaps?

[6N2 GTI 00]

You must have the record for mileage covered on the original gearbox
