You made the mistake about 99% of everyone who makes this upgrade. Did not read the manual. UNLESS to ALSO remove the plugs and re-gap them to a larger gap you DO NOT GET any benefits from having the MSD Coil pack....Widen the gap = More Spark better burn = MORE POWER ---- I ran my plug from .040-.055 depending on the amount of BOOST I was running in my R53. The more boost I had - I would ran smaller gaps around .040-.045. I also ran one to two step colder NGK plugs......

Question, please. I want to remove the chrome surround and clip in a black one, as I don't intend to reuse the chrome one can I just break the clips whilst removing the trim without removing the bumper, and then clip in the new surround trim? Thanks!

Snapping the clips off - wow - it’s not that hard mate. Also the hydro dipped stuff looks rather awful to me… just get parts really made in carbon or leave it as it is. All that „pretend-wanna-be-lightness“ is just an awful decoration trend…. Just my 2 cents

Thanks for the video, were there any sensors attached to the back of the bumper? I have heard that there are temperature sensor and pedestrian detector safety sensor that are located somewhere behind the bumper and to be careful with them as can cause a dashboard light if damaged.

On the Mini 5 door hatch there is a trim (bobbled surface) below the windscreen wipers that butts against the windscreen. Do you know what part no. it is or what it’s called?

@eurothrasher28232 ай бұрын
You can use stock bolts for the MSD - just have to remove the sleeves. They can carefully dremmeled off. And do not tighten it down too much. Just snug or it can pull the knurled nut right out of the valve cover ......

@iguana47518 ай бұрын
The tow hook is always on the right hand side, regardless if it’s a right hand drive or a left hand drive car. For cars with PDC it is impossible to mount the black part reversed. I think the same holds true for non-PDC.
