It was around $5K I think, fitted, a while back.

<edit> here's the exact same kit as sold by Mini Mania USA, USD$3,995.

You could build a turbo for lots less, with MORE power capability. :wink:

I had a look at one a while ago. I worked that by the time I did the blower, brakes, cooling etc. It would be about the same as Honda conversion. So of course I did nothing :roll:

For a kit like this, try Link Automotive in Melbourne. It's not cheap though!

Last year I got a quote from Link. I think it was around the 6k-7k mark. It looks like a very nice set up, but quite exxy. I have an ald Mini magazine somewhere with an LS running it. And there is another one I think is in Perth, red one with this kit running LPG.

that is the link kit, Hi-Flow is next door and developed the kit for Link - 90% sure on that

the SC12 (4AGZE) blower kit is a much better bet, for around 1/5th of the price

pm user '92' on here

I'll confirm the other 10% of that.

Are any kits designed to be used with a Weber? I'm still flirting with the idea of a supercharger but there's no way in hell i'm ditching my Weber. Can i have the both easily?

Link do a weber "adaptor kit" I think. Tthey just change the inlet flange into the supercharger. Here's a pic on the link website of a roundy with a weber on his charger..

I asked them about this, whether it was a one off or they did it as an option for the kit and got no response (seemed to be the way while talking to them).

Maybe you'll have more luck, they might like you more than me :?

I've seen one of those on a yellow van over here, number plate SITNLOW and it looked really tidy there may be some photos of it on Ausmini... wait I'll look

PetenSoaf The yellow Clubby van looks even better from the other end - it has a Link supercharger setup on it. . Image


Sorry only pic (from behind) I could find but from what I heared it goes great.
