Jeeeesssas!!! Good thing you didn't play around with the switches because who knows which Mini was parked in front...

 

What seats are those? They look sweet

 

Classic Sparco Milano leather...I think they have been replaced by another model...

 

Everytime I see a thread with your name on it I know better to look and then stupidly I do... Of course now I must go to the garage and start tearing it apart again.... to top it off Jan is lurking which makes me hunger for more engine goodies....

Damn you! I am trying to resist calling Jan... ARGGGHHHHH

 

Yeah, I know the feeling
I look at Sid's car and think mine is spartan and I am talking about the race car

Time to go add some more components into the race car....

I think I will put the carbon hood on tomorrow!

(must catch Sid)

 

Hey Jan, don't worry about that hood, get busy getting my header and exhaust ready for my install next week I'm ready to join the club

 

Good luck Jan!, in catching Sid that is....

Just keep me posted on that SC... I am still drooling over the thought. Remember what I said: I'll be happy to send the car your way for testing and you can keep it for a few months if necessary

 

Hey Sid! Awesome header! D@nm! Loved it when I saw it at the Dragon. Jan...great work. Piece of art! hopefully the beta testing will be successful.. Hint.....

Good seeing you saturday Sid!

-C

 

Wow...Have to check out this Autoblog..... Figures I had the bonnet up!

-C

 

LOL... I just told Eric your package was going out tomorrow with Friday delivery.

 

You stick to horse power, let me handle the style for you...

 

Wow...I didn't think you come here anymore...

BTW, I do believe the header in my hands IS the same one at the Dragon...Gary has it right now installing an extra bung for the AF meter...I asked Jan for that in an email but he doesn't often read past the first sentence...

Hint...send Jan emails with no more than one sentences...

I'm waiting on a Magnaflow resonator to take the place of the cat and that piece also needs a bung for the second O2 sensor...once I have that, I'll have Gary put it all together...

I'm considering installing the header myself and driving out to him sans exhaust...might be kinda loud though don't you think? Maybe not...

 

Style and HP, you'll have it all....

 

Sid,
I read it but it usually entails you begging for parts so I mysteriously forget to answer those questions....

 

I took a picture of his car at the dragon. Nice looking car.

 

Har har har...I'll remember that when you come begging for "Design"...

 

Beta testing

Did that already.

Longboard

 

Somebody's gotta double check your work...

Ok...I'm Theta Testing...

 

Ahhhh, Msfitoy got new part's, I cant wait to see them Sid

 

Sid,
Are you going to ceramic coat the header?
Jim

 

I love to but I'm in too much of a hurry to put them on...

 

I know the feeling!
Jim

 

Go old skool! White VHT spray bomb!

 

Will that have any benifit besides making it white? Can't see it anyway...

 

Just that it'll get ugly-dirty and parts of it will burn off after a few months. At least, that's how it always seemed on the high school hot rods.

I think if the stuff is applied according to the directions (which involves multiple coatings and heating up/cooling down in between), it lasts longer and basically acts as a rust preventative. Just kidding about the white - white was popular for headers in the '70s, but there'd be no practical reason to do that on the MINI.
