Mine weighed in a 1.02 tonnes with 1/2 tank, 16"s, them heavy as fuck V6 calipers, and the heavy false floor. Im pretty sure my cars heavier than a standard corsa, standard is morelike 950kg.

	i was marginally quicker than the MINI Cooper i had a performance test against. Not much in it though

	though the bmw group are famous for being moddest with their performance figues and the mini cooper actually got a 8.9 on the 0-60 test. Though im not a believer on the 0-60 being a good judgement of cars.

Flyincorsa	posted on 9th Nov 03 at 15:44
	Fabricated the whole system myself mate out of high grade stainless steel? Dont think the pvb did that much I wouldnt bother probably add a tiny bit. Gas flowed head and cams next just saving up wpt do u think would be a relistic increase? :thumbs:

psycho sport	posted on 9th Nov 03 at 15:34
	all new mini's are 1.6 16v if it was a cooper than i can understand how u kept up!
dannycorsa c	posted on 9th Nov 03 at 15:31
	was it a copper S or just a normal 1.6?
mike_1.2LS96	posted on 9th Nov 03 at 15:27
	I'm sure the mini is heavier. Corsas are about 800kg iirc
Flyincorsa	posted on 9th Nov 03 at 15:05
	So why did he ask then mine is 115bhp so not that much diference is there I thought they were more than that. Lexmaul inlet Manifold Air filter Superchip 4 2 1 Manifold custom exhaust Pbv :thumbs:

	130 bhp, it would rape you, he wasnt trying
Flyincorsa	posted on 9th Nov 03 at 14:48
	Had a race against a mini the other day and it could not pull away we both stopped and mini driver asked wot I had under the bonnet. He couldnt believe it when I said it was only a 1.4 16v, just wondering wot bhp they are I should imagine they are a lot heavier than a corsa. :thumbs:
