hey first post here . id like some information on this if possible please, if theres anyone out there with experience or knowledge. iv been considering doing this, id like a mini i can tune myself and with my spi this doesn seem very possible, i want a fast road mini. if i was to convert my spi to carb could i still use it as my everyday driver, and how much would i be looking at to convert and is it a big job, and come nct time am i totally screwd or is there ways of getting around it, and in general would you reccomend it or do you think i should just stay away from the idea. would really appreciate any replys thanks

Hi

As far as I know Lloyd Hutchinson has done a few of them I think it would be pretty hard to get through an NCT and you'll have to do one every year from now on. Why now look at something like a programmable ecu

Talk to Paul at Hickey Race Engineering,
He's known as merlin here, he'd be able to guide you through what needs to be done or else he can sort you with pretty much anything to do with a mini

his number is (01) 4587259,
