I would kill my engineer if I where you.

:sorry:

There was a few chargers on gumtree, or was, otherwise try junkmail.

Or seeing that I just did, try GG motors?

Can you not weld it and re machine it?
It is aluminium after all.

yeah i dont think i would trust it...

@Nikhil. its for a *cough*honda*cough*.

its a JRSC kit that i have done a lot of work on.

any way. i have managed to source a M45 off a merc c180. just need to get it from durban to JHB. but looks like i will win.

thanks for all that help guys. i feel really welcomed on this forum. (better then some others out there of my own brands)

Keep us updated dude, with pics

M45 will not make big power you should try get an M62 :rollsmile:

Have to agree with "my learned colleague" M62 is a pre requisite :rollsmile:

 

[moranor@axis]

m62 is good for about 250kw :rollsmile:

 

[swich]

m62 is good for about 250kw :rollsmile:

ah this is why im using the M45 its not about peak power. it about how its used... the m45 has been said only good for 120kw. im aiming for 150 with lots of mods... will keep you all up todate

if you wanna see what i have done so far

and then just a post of my never giving up

so i wont give up on the M45

 

[moranor@axis]

dont get me wrong you can make near 180kw with the m45 but it becomes very inefficient... unless there is a space issue it will be much easier to use an M62 to reach your goal

if you really want to stick with the m45 (which it seems you do) you should look at pre charger water injection it will keep things cool and also increase the efficiency of the charger :rollsmile:

seems like alot of work for 150kw... 200kw should be you minimum goal to make this worth while :fencelook:

Hi Guys,

Immediate help will be appreciated

I bought a mini copper S 2007 model with 67000KM on the clock. 3 weeks ago my mini lost power showing the orange check engine light.

I took it in to auto bavaria today and they Just qouted me R20000 to fix it.
Do you know of any place that can fix my Turbo at a less price Tag then BMW?

I was thinking of taking to Bosch please advise.
I need to respond to Auto Bavaria ASAP.

 

[moranor@axis]

what do BMW say the problem is?

 

[Guy Mini]

They just said its the turbo and needs to be replaced

 

[moranor@axis]

Im not that familiar with the mini hopefully someone with more knowledge will pop in...

if its 20k for everything it does not seem to bad to me...
