David,
Way ahead of you! I have more favorites saved in my browser than I can shake a stick at. I am seriously thinking about the Quicksilver exhaust and header. What are your thoughts?

Finally here is some Pictures.

And Ken the Mini Exhaust is excellent all ready but with a chip the Supersprint and other exhaust should make about a good 7-15 HP. But with out a chip the Supersprint exhaust make 1 Hp and 5ft/lb, with a 2 HP loss.

Sorry Ken I will post a article tomorrow that explains everything. 20C4S, those are the same wheels and brakes I would like on my Mini. Ken, the Nav. unit is great. I can find gas stations, food or anything anywhere. Even though I know where everything is.

20C4S,
Now that is slick! You must have more than $5K just in wheels, tires and brakes!! I thought it was going to be CHEAPER with this car with the modding!!!!
I am looking into getting Bilstein PSS coilovers. Are you interested in a group buy?
David,
I am looking forward to a better explanation. Post soon.

KPV,
i know. i thought the Mini is gonna be my everyday car & i wasn't gonna spend "big" money on it, but now i can't stop it as of now, i'm still waiting for the aerokit and JCW kit. looks like another deep pocket job!

u mean PSS-9 for Mini? does Bilstein have the kit for Mini? i have H&R coilovers on the car i just switched back the stock sitting with lower springs. the kit was pain in the ***.
still waiting for Eibach. i know Eibach pro-street coilovers is no the way to U.S. it should be a nice kit.

let me know the info on Bilstein.

20C4S,
I believe the set for the MINI is simply called PSS rather than PSS-9. I am not totally sure about this yet. They have a kit over in Europe and I am looking to set up a group buy for them. Are you interested? If so, to keep things all in one place, please post a response here:
