That ---- is bad ass. I like the intake system. 14k rpms with just titanium caps?? hummm....
also you can buy a kit to put a B series into a Mini. I just saw it in a Magazine at the book store. Anyone else ever go to a book store on a rainy day and pick up a huge stack of mags and performance books and read 'em all? or am i the only one and am a loser?
