The MINI has a 1.6 liter engine... putting a positive displacement blower on a 1.7L motor with OE pulleys should yeild slightly less boost... a good
place to start when trying to work out your fueling/timing in my opinion. Are the RPM ranges of the two motors similar?... you wouldn't want to
"over-spin" the blower.
