You'll have to come out in mine Ollie 
Intercooler is deffo a mod that needs doing before Summer - mine was losing minimum of 20bhp on the RR last month as it just wouldn't run cool enough - they ended up spraying water in through the scoop in the end

How accurate are the figures on the letstorquebhp website for the VXR do you think?

I need to get an exhaust for the track car before I do anything else, its driving me insane.
But seeing as Dave F is doing the airbox thing now I'll get one of them.

No way I could get near that You win!
This is what it says for standard assuming they have their figures for both cars right:
VXR
Power at Flywheel (BHP) :237
Weight without Driver (KG) :1393
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) : 172.87
0 - 60 (Secs) :6.33
0 - 100 (Secs) :15.59
60 - 100 (Secs) :9.26
Quarter Mile (Secs) :14.69
Terminal Speed (MPH) :97.07
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) :14.49
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) :98.76
JCW
Power at Flywheel (BHP) :208
Weight without Driver (KG) :1205
Power to Weight Ratio (BHP Per Ton) :175.39
0 - 60 (Secs) :6.28
0 - 100 (Secs) :15.83
60 - 100 (Secs) :9.55
Quarter Mile (Secs) :14.67
Terminal Speed (MPH) :96.28
Drag Strip Quarter Mile (Secs) :14.47
Drag Strip Terminal Speed (MPH) :97.9
says 208 for some reason, not that it will make a lot of difference

Thing is I can't remember what a standard VXR drives like, but you have to throw into the equation mine has a LSD so you could knock off a few tenths.
What BHP is my Mini FFS? Is it 170?

1320 are highly respected you fool.
Not sure what the plugs are about, but £350 isn't bad.
That and Dave F airbox is £170 so £520 and a set of Carbotech XP8 pads which are £150 quid.
Done.

If your upping the power with that pulley it will probably be colder (harder) plugs so it doesnt eat them after a couple thousand miles.
