Some script kiddie has started working at the warehouse, and he has a mini cooper. followed him out the gates last night and when we got to the dual carriageway, i booted it and so did he. he must be a real shit driver because i got past him, then down onto another dual carriageway, and i was pulling away fairly rapidly. What a pussy. I reckon my car must be pulling about 110bhp now. It is so much quicker through the gears than it used to be. Traction is so much better now i have P6000's too. That airbox mod is awesome. Best £30 i ever spent

whats so difficult to understand Samual? Everyone knows that a properly modified airbox will always gain better than some daft induction kit. i dont see 3-4bhp impossible on this engine.

The standard air box has that tiny narrow piece of plastic to direct the air, replace it with a nice big piece of hosing and a good replacement panel and i cant see why a few bhp isnt attainable?

Sorry mate I have to disagree, the X14XE and X16XE with a modded box or cone filter does sound a bit like a Scooby, but obviously not the same as a real Scooby, eh Scott!

It's just the inlet manifold/throttle body design on those two engines that make it sound like that, if you remove the airbox completely and fire up the engine + rev it, you can hear it!

I would like a Scooby one day... then I will race Corsa's and laugh at how their engines try to sound like mine!

The new Mini is ghey. Most of the production line people at the Mini factory in Cowley are stoned or can't be bothered to do their jobs properly.

No wonder they had to recall some of them because of gearbox/syncromesh type problems.

You should use Super Unleaded in your automobile, Clive. See if your Corsa gets any faster!

I use jet fuel in my Astra, it's a bit expensive though...
