and on that note, goodbye to the 1310, it struggled valiantly along with me to avoid embarrassment at the dyno day, and now its gone, and not a moment too soon... more news when theres news to tell. |

lets just say im driving a mitsubishi galant SE for awhile soooooo comfortable, nobody goes in the left lane up mcintyre road cos its so bumpy, but i gunned it with impunity, the suspension glided me over the huge motox jumps like a cloud.. ![]() normally you hit your head on the roof in the mini as you hang on for dear life! |

Yep... this happens. You get behind the wheel of a car other than a Mini and you are like "so comfy", "so reliable" blah blah blah. Then after a few weeks you hop back behind the wheel of a Mini and then you are like "i'm such an idiot, this is just right!". ![]() |

well i can say my 1132 needs no work at all and could take a moderate amount of boost easy. the 1310 is well... poo. ![]() but only a rebuild away from being good |

i voted to s/c tha 1132. reasons being: if for some reson it goes bang, things like rods and blocks are far easier to come by for replacement It is already a good strong motor I like small bores a supercharged 1310 would be a weapon, would u need that much power??? PLUST u need to rebuild it first.. it just ecomes too expensive, when the 1132 would be just as fun (just not as quick) but still blardy fast |
