Has anybody got one of these fitted.

Just want to know what to expect once it has been fitted not my idea the guys at BBR suggested it so I said why not. Not being fitted until Monday still time to change my mind.:question:

There are plenty of people on mini2 with them who swear by them , I always fitted them to my classics and loved them. Redpoint rallying has just fitted a cheapy one from ebay to his rally car but hasnt used it in anger yet.

Go for it though you will love it

No but it will be on Monday they are trailering it accross.

No option I'm afraid it was not something I had made a budget for or even considered doing BUT just lets say I will not be a customer of Minisport Padiham again.

They made a botch of my car infact just lets not go there.

I can feel the anger inside :mad::mad::mad::mad::mad::mad:

The guys at BBR will look after you!! Just let them know that you know me and Alan!! As long as they know you have the Zeemax kit fitted, it was a bit of a nightmare getting my car on a lorry, but she's been lowered, and their wee speed bump grounds on the skirts!!:evil:
So what's happened and what's away to happen to your car? Nothing to bad I hope!?:clown:

They have already seen the car at the body shop.

Well it was Allan who spoke to the guys at BBR. We will get a full detailed report after Monday.

I'm getting 245bhp and a big intercooler thing again not to sure Allan took care of it.
Oh and my short shift.

was speaking to Allan about what exactly is wrong with the engine and we have decided that we are both as knowledgeable as two planks of short wood.

The car is not going to BBR Allan decided agains't it do not know why he's now going with some old guy who specialise in super charged engines.

It's getting a new cylinder head,camshaft,alloy pulley,throtle body,induction system,inlet manifold and intercooler.

Will be 275bhp.:D

Another Zeemax!! You're right, they are common!!;)

I think that might be the intercooler Bonnie Scotland was after! Not sure about the painted fuse box thingy though!:clown:

Wouldn't mind seeing this when it's all done!!:D
