Hiya All,

I am new to this forum :), i currently have a 998cc Mini with a zeemax body kit fitted, I am lookin at a new engine 1293 or 1380 either one will be turbocharged. I have had the car since January and its in really good nic just a few rusting spots.

Just wanted to know where i shld start, i got lots of ideas.

Thanks

Welcome (this should be in introductions though)

you will find all the information about turbo conversions is already on the site, use this page ( http://www.turbominis.co.uk/forums/index.php?p=vf&fid=18 ) as a starting point, then use the search function at the top of the screen

Either that or it just shrinks with evolution, like the front legs on a T-Rex, due to under-use.

In the 13's at last!.. Just

Welcome.
I'm about to make the leap from standard 998 to turbo (albeit a 1098 turbo). If I end up wrapped around a tree then mybe you should think twice *tongue*
