Yup.
Lifting the motor is the way to go.
I have about 5000 miles on the car since I did the pulley upgrade.
I went with the M7 16% unit.
My buddy Andy Smith was one of the first MCS's in the country with a pulley upgrade. They pulled his car apart to get to the pulley.
My car has the miltek exhaust, M7 Springs, MSport sway bar in the rear..if you do anything DO THAT!, whalen shift knob, Recaro seat and some other bits and bobs.
You going to run it this winter?
How's the ride with the M7 springs? Looks sweet, gives it a nice stance.
Yes, I'll be driving it year round. Just bought a set of mini steels with winter tires. From what I've read, it's suppose to be excellent in the snow.
The car rides BETTER with the M7's.... They are progressive springs so the ride is a little cushier...IMHO.
I installed those too. I have access to a lift and a heated shop...so if you want help installing anything just let me know.
I have to do camber plates and control arms this spring.
Im still looking for cheap snows...and waiting for the snow.

Saw thread title:
There's a Mini here in Atlanta that has Mr. Bean in the back window:
(As you can see they're a little weird)
LOL, I actually saw I bunch of pictures on one of the mini forums of this car. The user name is Mr MeanBean, or something like that......I believe that picture is them doing the dragon, looks they have a lot of fun!!
