Just want to say in advance if you vote for my car thanks
2004 Mini Cooper S
I went for a drive with my friend and I fell in love with the Mini by riding in the passenger seat. I figured if I could enjoy a car that much without even driving it then I better gett one myself; SO I DID! It didn't stay stock for long and I still have much to do.

Here are my OZ Titan Rims--Try to find these rims in the states with the right offset!! You will find it is impossible and if you do find them you will pay dearly for a set!! I matched the rims with Pirelli Nero tires, EBC slotted and dimpled rotors, and EBC green stuff brake pads. The combo looks and functions fantastic.
I went from stock 205/45/17 to 215/40/17
Under the hood I have a pro mini polished strut bar and a
pro-mini cold air intake. The supercharger whine sounds so much better now when you put your foot down.
Here is my new SuperSprint header and high flow metal racing cat. My friend helped me do the upgrade. It has really brought the engine to life and the sound is awesome.
MY shark injector has came in and is installed. It has made a change that can be felt in the seat of your pants. The has increased its performance throughout the entire rev range and my rev limiter has been raised providing a better shift point giving it greater acceleration.
Installing some new parts in the mini!
Denso Plugs and Nology Wires installed!
Installing the 15% supercharger reduction pulley
It was a little bit of work but ohh was it worth it. I read over and over how much it improved the cars performance but now that I have done it. I have to recommend it to everyone. The sound of the supercharger whine is awesome! I though it was going to change the sounds pitch a little but it turned it into a screaming machine.
Here is a picture after a good friend of mine helped me lower the mini. We used Vogtland 30mm lowering spings. It lowered the car approx 1 inch gaving the mini a even sportier stance. I really love how the wheels are now tucked in right under the fenders.
Here are some pictures during the installation of the adjustable camber links and the Alta sway bar.
My Mini Again.
Here is a video the mini on a club autocross day
Future Plans:
Big Valve cylinder head (company undecieded)
Shrink Performance camshaft
Upgraded clutch kit and a LSD
500CC injectors
Forged Pistons
Long range future plan;
Turbo Conversion or Twincharged Kit (350-400hp)
I really want to go with a twincharge kit. I love the supercharger whine and now that the new Mini S doesn't even have a supercharger I don't think I will ever go for a conversion kit. However the future is the future.
