I would love to see the postage on that, last time I ordered an indicator/wiper stalk assembly from Minisport it cost £21 but I was quoted £35 on postage!?! On 7th Nov, 2008 Nic said:

Well if they are Rover items and have the ring pack then they are a bargin to my mind. Obviously only for people like me wanting to do a fairly high comp / low boost build for road manners.

Hi, Jimmy .. With 9.4:1 you should be able to squeeze 10 psi in there, as long as it's well setup. Preferably with mapped ignition... Intercooler also essential. I'm planning on 10 psi into my stock MPi engine... Cheers, Gavin :) 1293 Turbo mini

Anybody know how think the crown is??? If your not into big bananna`s and you haven`t alot of money,a cheap fun engine of around 8 psi , i`d go for it. To lower the compression use two head gaskets , a+ head studs or ARP (BETTER) . Think about it your not on boost all the time.... Intercooler is a cheap insurance .... Im running two head gaskets with ARP studs ( and was told it wouldn`t work , don`t do it etc) but it lowered compression and has worked .Avonpark 2005 , Saxo, corsa scoobies hunting on a saturday night....lol. Untill i can afford a good t-head it is a cheap option and im on the road in stead of in the garage dreaming..... Or worse still ...having to sell my dream.... I know , i know im sorry , it just makes me grin !!!
