What did you do to your mini today?

Yesterday I hardwired my V1 radar and concealed display next to my Tac. (Thanks to this forum the install was easy!) That was done just in time because I got a ALTA AccessPort today and I am now running the Stage 1 ECU flash. OMG I awoke the dragon! So far I am loving it. Now greed is setting in and I want stage 3. Must go sell plasma for new FMIC and exhaust!

That sticker is sad but true... I would like a copy on my garage cabinet.
Sometimes it seems California is out to kill anyones hobby, that isnt the enviornmentalist hippie way. That's ok though I live in Colorado, I hate the California ways. I will keep my guns (None of which are leagal in CA), I will keep my automotive hobbies (None of my cars have emission controlls), and I will continue to smoke, drink, and be happy, the good old fassion way (Burning hydrocarbons in mass quantities, not giving a rats *** about other peoples feelings about it.) And I will get back to my home distilled un taxed jar of liquer here in Colorado.

Mini mess
Bought " Ultimate Wrap " extended warranty, only to find out it covers nothing they said it did. No motor, transmission , or anything of importance. This warranty wraps around the orignal warranty, but my 2005 didn't have any , so I paid 2100.00 for a waranty that is useless. Seems odd to me that 45 days after buying my mini, front strut splits, powering steering hose and valve gasket start leaking, also had wrong coolant in it. Was told it had run flats on it, only to find out later, that it does not. The car is cute, gets lots of looks, nice to put to top down on nice days , but I am not happy and wish I had never bought this car, my gut tells me this is just the beginning of a long bumpy road of costly repairs.

I was given an insulated lunch bag from CA by my former boss, and it had a sticker on it. The sticker proclaimed that the bag was manufactured from materials known by the State of California to be carcinogenic. I keep my cargo tie-down straps in it.

What do you mean you wiggled the BPV and got your power back? Do explain because I've been trying to figure out if I've lsot power or just gotten use to it. Boost feels like it's not coming on as early or as strong as before.

If you peer down into the area near the intake hose from the airbox, and follow it down to the throttle body, you'll be looking in the right general area to find the BPV. If the little lever on the side of it which is hooked to the black plastic rod coming out of the black plastic vacuum diaphragm housing isn't kept snugly against its stop by the spring inside the diaphragm housing, you're losing boost, and you need to replace the BPV.
HTH!
