Mini Magazine - March 2010
Turbo Mini Forums

Shame they forgot to mention a thanks to Endaf for the scales, and forgot to mention my engine is forsale on ebay on the weekend. Hopefully it should make a good price "most powerfull a series engine in the world wthout nos?"

Nice to see Robert's RTS clutch getting a mention.

I've read about half the mag so far, it's turbo minis in every other paragraph!

Good read, liked the shootout feature lots - hopefully something MMag will carry through for future big rolling road stuff, so thats the Goldie in 2005 MMag, 2010 MMag -maybe I should book its slot for 2015.lol!

If Carling made Mini engines
it would probably be like this one!

Grrr, just got the february one, means I have to wait another month...grrr...

Didn't someone mention movies being made?

Dazed and Confused....

Is your car working now John?

yeah its running, entirely my fault now for not dedicating some time to her to get it dynoed.

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.

Jim - apologies mate. I put in the for sale thing but it must have got edited again! and my apologies about Endaf!

To all those I promised mags to, I'll send them out when I get them. Believe it or not, I only have one copy!

Jeff - top articles in this months mag - it's a real bumper harvest for TM and is great PR.

Got to be one of the best months for turbo articles I've ever seen. About bloody time too. We need more tech stuff like this. Is the message clear enough Jeff ?

Goes without saying - please pass on our collective thanks to all those at MM, Mark and Daz.

Matt - you are a top snapper. I gave up counting how many times I saw your name mentioned. Really good pics mate.

Paul S - love your article buddy and the action shots.

It still amazes me that you did all that DIY EFi stuff on the 998 with so much success. Groundbreaking mate.

And Paul. I was as surprised as you to see my van in so many shots but with a colour like mine, it's a bit difficult for me to do 'subtle' !

I'm just stunned at the average bhp figure for the session - 168 nannas is gonna take some beating.

It was a great day at the RR - John's (minimadmotorman's) video link is WELL WORTH a click - cheers for that John.

I'm gonna ring Troy at Northants Motorsport tomorrow and book a RR session as I think I've found my lost mid range now that the Megasquirt and new dump valve are up and running and the boost signal lines have been re-plumbed. Certainly was a great drive to Bingley last month.

Richard.

Minivanless, but reluctantly happy living with the decision. There'll be another one day.

I must say that Jeff did a great job writing up the EFi stuff. Firstly, it's a difficult concept to get your head around and then there is the problem of setting the level of detail to keep readers interested. I think he got it just right.

Well done Jeff.

Stephen Hawking - "The greatest enemy of knowledge is not ignorance, it is the illusion of knowledge."

yes I read it last night and thought he did well to, as not the easy or things to write about, also well done for your input as well Paul. Now we can say, thanks for you guys that said about Paul's car, if you remember i posted some time ago about any feature cars and Paul's name came up a few times, So thanks for your suggestions. Keep em coming

mr woods your such a tease!

I want to know now too :( I can't believe it'll be an engine conversion, simply due to how far Jim took the A-series.....

Mr. Prawn, the friendly Crustacean- slowly making steps towards forced induction.

I think he's going for a NA bimmer...

cos he's a girl and cant handle the boost! lol

or he's skint and is going for a NA 850....
