Just reinsured the mini now as a turbo.

Had a lovely conversation with a young lady on the phone for 1/2 an hour yesterday just to say it was not 1340 and was 1293 and now was turbo'd *Clapping*

Wanted to know how much extra bhp the mini now had in a percentage but was unsure if this was over standard or what it had before!

Then it turn to what bhp it actually now had, to which I ask at the fly or wheels. Which she said is there a difference. Lol when I said I was unsure as it's not been fully tested on the RR, she said that they need to know the exact figure so the response was it was doing 125 when it blow up and she was happy.

At least there not asking for where the engine came from this time.

Mini now completely road legal and ready for the engine to be removed next week.

What the mind can conceive the mini can achieve
MITP 2012 17.01 seconds 1/4 mile against "The Don"
MITP 2013 16.83 seconds 1/4 mile

I had a similar conversation re power. Ended up, they were looking for the power increase over the standard replaced engine, ie standard turbo at 93 as opposed to 998 at 34 or whatever it was.

"How much extra power does it have?" that should be answered "Depends on the boost"

 Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

Shouldn't it be 'Depends if the head gasket is blown or not'.

I did tell them it made 125 before HGF.
Failed to say there was another 1500 rpms to go.
