if you go for the kit 2 you don't need a decompression plate as the head is modified to over come this.

Hi Doc mini,
I have been involved in converting Two irish Minis to run a Supercharger setup it is by no means a simple or cheep conversion but does yeald great results,

If you want to Give me a call on (086) 816 0774

or drop by the Garrage of an evening Im sure we could help you out and talk you trough what you will need to complete Such a conversion.
We also have a few lower bujet ways of achieving a simlar power and torque value as the charger. Which are more f a DIY Option,

Best regards,
Paul.

Being a '93 Cooper I presume its SPi with a cat, you'll need to watch emmisions for the NCT.

I not really to sure wat it is.i thought it was an mpi.how do ye tell the difference

MPI didn't come out till '97. It should be SPi unless its been converted to carb in which case the ECU should have been removed from the drivers inner wing. Carbed '93 minis are allowed a higher CO% then injected minis but I don't know how the NCT treat converted cars. Is it based on the VIN number or a physical check for carb or injection?

Yeah it must b spi.the ecu is still there.wat other options are ther te give me abit more power.that dont put a hole in ur pocket

Everything puts a hole in your pocket you just have to decide how big, whats your budget?

I dont have a budget.kinda just lookin wat sorta money other people put in te superchargin a mini.havnt really made me mind on wat te do.lookin for some ideas.but notin that means iv te take the car off the road as its my everyday driver

turbominis.co.uk. everything you need to no is on there, i built my turbo engine with advice from there,

Cheers.will have a look there.thanks everyone
