Hi Matt the car looks really great with a mean stance.
But..what I'm really dying to know is if your kidney grilles are black or carbon and where you got them please? The standard chrome just looks rubbish on VO. Cheers.

I think the chrome looks just right with VO. Sorry for answering Matts question but the colour of these are the same colour as the rear diffuser. Lee painted them this colour as well as the indicator surrounds on the wings

What are the power outputs to expect on a stage-3 setup ?

I agree with jezzer I really like the car in vo with the chrome and silver wheels but I'm a really lazy git and I don't clean stuff so didn't want my wheels silver so lee powder coated them for me chrome doesn't go with the wheels so I got him to paint the chrome bits too!

Guys, I stand 100% corrected and won't bring the subject up again .

Tamara we all have our own tastes so your choice of colour is also good. The colour Matt has done I think is a better look than gloss black and good if you don't want chrome. I originally bought the gloss black kidneys and the side repeaters from IND in the States but when they arrived thought they didn't go with VO. In the end Aussie had them for his AW 1M which looks great.

Hi Jez I was honestly joking and don't feel in the least bit 'corrected' ( tho glad hybris4 agrees so i am not totally mad).
Any way not wishing to hijack v serious thread - not intended for discussion of grilles - any further, thanks v much for advice re avoiding gloss black! T

Crank I would guess you would have to speak to Imran for exact figures and every car is different and power will vary orange always seem to be faster though!

Hi Imran, this is Leo from Brasil that tune a Mini JCW not too long ago with you. Also never received the plate with the cables. Just came the cables in the box. Really appreciate if you can send it to me as well.

Thumbs up for Evolve and Imran itself. Always helpfull and made my Mini stage 2 very strong with the tune and DP.

Any videos of this car?

Matt has now sold his 1M but I do remember he did remove his spacers due to rubbing issues.

Wow, this is one seriously clean 1M, cars look clean, very good plan if you would like to keep this car and save it, cause as all people here said, it's a definite future classic. Drops are nice and beautifully done, classic eisenmann exhaust everything's set. Perfect.

Leo please email rizwan at evolveautomotive.com with your address and we will send you some stickers.

Don't think we made any videos of this. He swapped his Eisenmann Race for a Evolve Race as he found it too loud for him with the Eisenmann.
