Aye, but it goes like a rocket. And i do mean its SERIOUSLY quick. Turbo lag is awful, gets to about 4000-4500rpm though and shifts. Blokes called MAtt, and when it hits the revs, stand clear as it goes all over the road.

Runs out of puff at about 6000prm though so not much of a power band to play with.

But who cares, its fooking mental!!!!

Standard Mini gearboxes are totally shocking 4speed jobs. To get any speed out of a Mini you need a Quaife job and an LSD.

Where's Wallace Performance based Dave?

Quaife gear boxes dont have much top end to them SMS they are more for acceleration
