Nows the time to slap some proper pistons in and slap a turbo on it! https://www.facebook.com/pages/Fusion-Fabri..._homepage_panel

or just some properly designed nitrous cams .. Medusa + injection = too much torque for the dyno ..https://youtu.be/qg5o0_tJxYM |

thats an un-necessary pain - hope you fix it soon - port the head/drop some mans cams in and ditch the gas!

ok cool, it's just you had a problem so the advice isn't really worked. Just cost you a lot of work. Dude!! People have been shot for suggesting less 
No huge hp levels involved, just to much NOS and not enough fuel
OK so I am an amature with NOS, Yes. This failure could be as a result of something I did (probibly), or it could be a problem with the system (an uknown quantity at this time). I am not willing to listen to you tell me that a seasoned proffesional does not know what he is talking about  Blame the amature, not the proffesional 
The fact remains that the system has run 40- 50hp happily in the past. I suffered from a couple of melted plugs. After finding those, things were done to resolve this issue on advice from the manufacturer. Everything was taken right back to the 25hp set up jets and the heater fitted, then tested once again. The set up jets are matched to give an extra rich mix with a fuel pressure of 3bar with the optimum nitrous pressure, I run 3.5 bar fuel pressure so it should not be lean whatsoever. At this point all indications showed that everything was fine, and logs of initial runs showed nice and rich. 2 hours later, still running the 25hp jets, the engine ran shockingly lean and the result is above. My money is on crap in the fuel jet and it wouldnt take much. That would be my fault. Fuel tank was no where near runing dry before anyone suggests that one  The power level used here and the fact that only one piston is stressed, would point to a distribution problem too.
The three solenoids are going back to WON for servie and testing, and all the direct port gear is coming off the engine as its not suited to the engine instalation regads to space and proximity. Robert, MATs on the night showed -2*C, lol so that could have had an effect, I agree. On the plenum front, there will always be a comprimise between space, and optimum design. I have been reading up on the subject of plenum theory, and have looked at shit loads of OEM plenums from family saloons to Ferraris lol and the only thing I won't be able to accomodate is the long runners. Also running one injector as far away from the valves as possible is favoured on the WON system, but consideration has to be taken for the smoothnes of the inlet tract. I know you are sceptical As for Nitrous cams, both RS cams are going in and the CR is coming down a touch too.
Will be interesting to see how it drives with the RS cams, a respectively low CR and the plenum. Two things happening here really. I am getting the plenum sorted for the turbo and getting a feel for the tune of the engine with it, while it gives me time to build the turbo manifold. I dont spend half the time on the Mini as some of you guys do, I have other things I enjoy, and other things that have drain on the income. The Mini is only a part of that. It takes as long as it takes and I have no problem with that, im tiered of rushing to get stuff done for some specific event. Its not the end of the world and im not going to win anything
Matt, I do respect what you are saying mate, i do. There is a full comprehensive plan to sort out what was an entry level kit that only had the bare minimum bits to get you started, and that has been half the problem, along with the fact that the BMW head has four throttles, not just one.

The engine was due to come appart for a check over anyway. It'll have cost me a piston and a set of rings. My mind has been going ten to the dozen on what to do with it, and racey cams and porting were part of those thoughts. That will eventualy happen, but at the moment I want something that is dosile in traffic but has some grunt when you want, without the nitrous. That is untill I can get this other Cooper 1400SPi on the road

While I have been at home waiting for a call, during this time of mayhem, I have started to design the plenum. I constructed a mock up using CAD to visualise better.

Anyone have any suggestions, remembering that it needs to be simple to construct, and fit in the space at the front of the engine. I'm not sure the paper / bog roll will last long. I run a supercharger and I don't care the TB is on the wrong side.
