Was looking through the interwebs and came across this
http://www.hi-flow.com/HP3MiniSuper.htm

Has anyone used one of these or seen them in action. Am a bit of a noob at the supercharging world and thought that this looked pretty sweet

the toyota SC12 setup is 1/5th of the price and goes better - do a search

It is rather a long drive - about 7 1/2 hours by Mini but if you're really interested...

Brian at Link has a demo car which, if you speak to him nicely, you can try before you buy (I suppose that's a maybe - but I enjoyed my ride).

I suppose it does really depend on fast you want to go (measured of course in $$$

Cheers, Ian

Cool shall do some more searching, sorry but the whole repost issue is like saying theres porn on the net, everyone knows they're there and they are eveywhere.

and might have to give link a ring tommorrow, i hear my bank account crying already

do a search for the sc-12 supercharger kit,
there'll be plenty of juicy info there for ya.

i've had some success (at the dyno day) and some failure (of 2nd gear)

still i've got enough in my 11psi 1360cc to beat an 08 polo gti uphill with a crazy redhead driver in it

and thats exactly why i boosted mine in the first place.
i wanted enough power to play with the modern sports cars at trackdays etc.

It depends what you're after really.

As odd as it sounds, my supercharged mini (1330cc, almost stock Cooper S including cam, sc12 blower ~6psi boost max) is very driveable. I live in the hills and love cruising around in top gear where in other minis (and many other cars) I have to shift down to keep the pace. In this Mini I can can just add a bit more juice and it purrs along nicely.

It won't beat gti Polos and other 'quick' cars though I wouldn't think, but my cars not about that (only about 82hp atws). But the mid-range torque is amazing. The part throttle acceleration is great and 80-110kph overtaking is easy in 4th.

Search for sc12, you know you want to...
