Turbo and injection won't mix on a Mini, unless you run SPI, and even then it would be a PITA....
No way can you get decent fuel distribution with MPI (2 injectors) and siamese intake ports- the cylinders charge rob each other. Many have tried to map these things properly on an A series, including KC, and chicm on MM/MS board, they can't even get high power and smooth running from MPI without a turbo..

If you MUST run turbo on an A series, I'd stay with the metro Turbo carb.. it works, even on James's 998 turbo.. :wink:
