Had a drive of a R53 Cooper S yesterday...

And loved it. Putting my MX5 on PH this afternoon.. I want one.

My budget should fetch me a nice clean facelift model with about 65,000miles on it!

I better not say this too loudly but the Mini drove better than my mk3 MX5!

That's because you bought the wrong Mk of MX5

Hmm ive had a Mk2 and this Mk3 but the mk2 was set up wrong and had bent alloys. I still have a big Mk1 Turbo itch to scratch!

You need to look into getting a reduced charger pulley, I went for an Alta 17% and it transformed the car and along with the GTT cold ram the supercharger whine sounded great.

Reduced charger pulley is on my radar. Which percentage should i get without modding any other parts of the engine?
