Scoopie's First Service Visit @ Passport MINI

Well, it was time. Scoopie's at 46k+ miles and it was time for an oil change and other little things. Kewl. Dropped her off this morning a little ahead of time (we like 2 be prompt) so I wouldn't be too late getting 2 work. My SA, David, bless his pea-pickin' heart, took my key and placed it in a little gizmo that 'reads' everything that happened w/Scoopie since the last time I had her at Sterling. I was 1dering if it told EVERYTHING ... :hmm: ... David didn't make any noises or funny faces, so… Continue

MJ: This Is It ... I Still Can't Believe He's Gone ... :'(

I read Chris What's-His-Name's review in the Post on Thursday, and got the feeling the movie was so-so. NOT! I loved watching the meticulous precis… Continue

Y'all, it's been a hella three months, I'm here 2 tellya! I felt like joining the lost & 4lorn ... perched on a prime piece of sidewalk somewhere in MD w/my sign: :help: Scoopie needs braces! However, after all the 2-1/2-hr Metrobus/rail rides, losing and having 2 replace a SmarTrip card, last-minute taxicab calls after gettin' fed up w/Metro's schedules, freezin' out here in the bitter… Continue

I think ANYBODY who realizes their Mini is something special should try and make at least one MOTD. I've been to the last 3 + am not ready to stop yet. 1st 2 years, I was n rooms, last yr I camped. I luv camping, + it cost a lot less, but it does rain a lot at Fontana, so it's kind of a toss-up.

I had it done at the Dragon last May and I am LOVING it. The latest mod is a ProMini intake which also gave a noticeable power increase and (along w/ a hole in the bulkhead in front of the air box) made the sound more enjoyabe. I am addicted to the sound of my car.

Thanks, I'm glad you enjoyed the vid - the road is an absolute BLAST in a Mini. The "pulley" replaces a slightly larger one on the supercharger (2002-2006 S models & 2005-2008 S convertibles only) and makes the supercharger spin a little faster. This pushes more air into the engine and results in about 15 more horsepower, which is quite noticeable.
