    Mini Cooper s supercharger on micra

    Yes but he does state it was fitted to a morris minor, with the older 1300 mini engines, just used the charger from a newer mini cooper s. I bet a micra would be rapid with a SC bolted to it, no lag just up and go and in a car that weighs quite little :grinning:

    taking locks out of k11 and sealing it up

    Im not sure if there is a tutorial for the micra but there are loads out there, try google mate. It is all the same process, you remove the locks and you will need to weld up the space, i have seen some using just fibreglass/filler but welding is the best option. And it is a lot easier to smash...

    Mini Cooper s supercharger on micra

    Yes the M45 charger would be suitable for the micra engine. It will need to be custom mounted and in line with other pulleys. Do you know the parts you need for this conversion mate. They are a fair size mind you but the micra bay does have quite a lot of space considering how small they are. I...

    My Micra Dot Rising To The Top! :)

    As mentioned im not a fan of different colour led lights but that does look pretty cool mate. The gaps do look wide fair play but i am with frank about the gapping, keep opening untill the spark can no longer jump, bigger the spark the better all round. That induction kit looks tidy also, did...

    Glad to hear its running better, thats always a good thing. What you mentioned doing with the cardboard is a good idea, saves beating around the bush and that. Get a picture of the new induction kit and dash mate

    Information on the Micra K11
