Have any of you put the BMW mini supercharger on the classic mini?


Ben, I am just about to try fitting a BMW mini supercharger to a classic mini. I have done a lot of research into the conversion and I will be posting details of the conversion as it takes place as part of my project mini build. I will be back to my mini project as soon as I finish uni in a month.

Minimania in the US also probably have these, some people dont like them cause the sctratch off the paint on the flange as you install them, I squirt wax on before and after fitting.

Hey Graham,
Thanks for this. I am still not able to visualize how these work. On the chrome for the rear seat companion boxes, clips similar to these slide into a channel in the chrome, then grip the steel of the box as you push them on. In the case of the seam covers, there is no channel. What keeps the cover from falling off the bracket also? Or do the clips go over top/outside of both parts?
