Easily Add Power with Tunit Tuning
Tunit provides an efficient and adaptable method of enhancing a vehicles performance (power and torque) without the need to alter the vehicles original equipment or programming. The advantages of the Tunit are; adjustment for optimum efficiency (both manually, by the customer and electronically, via a PC by a distributor), flexibility, as in movement from one vehicle to the next and ease of installation. The principle of Tunit is to provide all these advantages that previous methods of tuning such as EPROM replacement and "flashing" or OBD tuning could not.

I've been on the fence about whether to build up my Mini as FWD with a good 1275, or put a high tec motorcycle engine in the front and make it RWD (Honda ST1100 or 1300 look good so far).  Your axle got me interested.  I also have a Miata rear diff setup I could make an independent rear suspension for it, but the axle ratio's available are not good unless I want to spin the heck out of the engines.  Since I want to make it a street Mini still, I may just stick with a good FWD setup.  Sorry for bending your ear and moving off topic.  Will you have a list of items for sale, or just trickle them in one by one?

I haven't been on in a while, so I may have missed some of your earlier posts.  But it looks like you are cleaning out lots of go-fast stuff.  Are you selling everything and getting out of racing or something?

the rear end is for a tube frame mini   it used coil over penski shocks  and a four link  suspension ,   typicaly a sprite engine and a quafe  transmision   and aluminum drive shaft.    I will have pictures shortly.     as far as floor   the back end is all tubes  no floor . I did see a full body  mini converted  and they cut the  floor and tunnel out fitted a 289   ford  big as trasmision and  a quick change  the drive shaft was 16 inches .   not my kind of car but .

Any pics?

You've got me curious.  What sort of suspension was in the rear to make this work?  How cut up is the back floor etc?
