The UK MOT is exceedingly stringent causing a lot of cars to be detuned from the factory to clear the emissions testing

But this was a Japanese spec mini, did they have the identical engine spec to the UK cars?

Belgium is even worse . . .

No. They received a car with a mix of MPi and SPi bits. It was explained somewhere on TMF a little while ago.
The numbers don't seem like much, but a 50%+ increase in power with a bolt on upgrade isn't anything to be scoffed at.

Definitely not, a 50% increase in power could be considered as an astronomical achievement considering the amount of work need to achieve that sort of.increase from a N/A motor.

This whole thread makes me sad now. The cutting up of a good, solid mini shell, feels like such a waste. That said, the motor will probably be super cool.

I don't mind. I like where they're headed with this.
