I had my first trip in a turbo'd mini yesterday. In richard's (turbominivanman) van, it was ballistic, was like being kicked in face. Loved it! Cheers Richard!!

brocky you shipped your mini over ? fit a 2.95 diff Hey Steve, Yeh I just shipped it over last month, 2 years apart, I don't no how I survived....:) Getting back into it big time, trying to do all the stuff I wanted to do before the move, Motor is running well and all your work is really showing 
I'm gonna get a quaife diff (hopefully to reduce the torque steer) and up the boost to 14 or so. Definately got the bug again... and to all you guys considering going turbo, don't wait, like some said above, I was grinning for a week and saying to my self "F*ck its quick!" Cheers Brocky Ps hows the 1380 monster going ? Edited by Brocky on 2nd Feb, 2010.

OOH a Titan!!!!! I want one of those WTF am I on about??? I meant frontier, am I confusing myself??? Edit: No i do mean Titan!! Yeh everything here seems to have different names the little mazdas, the mx5's ? are called myartas or some thing here... Truck is nice and V8 sounds well with stainless pipes :)less than 20 mpg tho, but not complaining at 1 pound 60 a gallon ! Hey Nic, when you switched to a quaife, did you find much of a reduction in torque steer in the lower gears ? Edited by Brocky on 2nd Feb, 2010.

It was a lot better when booting it, instead of before when it would flap around under acceleration, now it just squats and shoots forward in a straighter line |
