No problem buddy, Yeh the filler neck on Minis is actually quite dangerous if the car does roll, so the tank is a good safety thing, and the cage helps too haha. I suppose if I go in mine I at least want it to blow up fast & furious style.

I priced up turboing a 998 (was my idea back before I got megajolt)
I had the turbo and manifolds, and turbo carb so didnt include those in the price.
Worked out to cost about 1k all in.

Thats without nitrous btw... because nitrous is silly...

;D
(also dont forget that by law if you fit it you have to have a compressed gas green warning sticker on your car

cuts down the cool factor somewhat)

I sold the turbo and stuff and put it towards my megajolt system... ;D lol
