Vag 1.8t 20V Mini

[splitpin]

Hi all, being a Vag fan at heart I had to get some real power into my Mini Cooper S

I did consider the VR6 lump as I have one handy in my Corrado!

but in the end after buying a LCR I decided that was the way to go!

Well its all in and boy does it fly!

The mini is down to just over 1000kgs then the cage went in along with the 6 point harnesses, polly windows and plumbed in fire protection.

Power wise im just about to fit a custom radiator and intercooler.

The downpipe is a custom 3" handmade item feeding a 2.5" system.

Many thanks to JabbaSport for the ecu work.

I know its not a Seat but does it deserve a mention here as it was inspired by a LCR!

please ignore the temporary pipework!
