    Welcome to M/A! :Thumbsup:

    I'm a confirmed Gen 1 guy, with 2 MCSes ...one highly modded, and the other my wife's bone stock daily driver. I know nothing about turbos, but love my modded, supercharged S. If you are looking for more bang for the buck, maybe you should look into getting a Gen 1 S...preferably an '05 or an '06 and mod it, instead.

    A larger aftermarket turbocharger will do no good without a tune to go with it, what are your plans for your MINI?

    Not sure I'd want to twist that little old Prince of an engine that hard. Just my .02 carry on.

    Welcome
