Popular Post MELO-R56 Posted April 30, 2018 Popular Post Report Posted April 30, 2018 Just wanted to give a HUGE thank you and shout out to Corey Brown! I asked on the forum here about installing some coilers and Corey offered to assist. He was gracious enough to drive an hour each way and was immensely patient and showed me the ropes. Corey's attention to detail and knowledge really put me at ease and I really enjoyed the process. His act of kindness is one of the reasons I joined the MINI community and one of the best parts about this club! Good people coming together with a love for all things MINI. Thanks Corey, and his wife Brandy for loaning him out for his services! -STEVE 6 2009 Mellow Yellow MCS, JCW Aero Package, JCW intake, JCW Steering Wheel, NM Engineering strut tower brace, Nvidia Q300 Cat Back Exhaust, ST XTA Coilovers, Madness Motorworks 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar, GP2 Rear Diffuser, Powerflex front control arm bushings, R112 Black Challenge Wheels, Bridgestone Potenza Tires

Popular Post MELO-R56 Posted May 2, 2018 Author Popular Post Report Posted May 2, 2018 (edited) Here are some pictures after getting an alignment at PTUNING on Monday. I'm in the process of fine tuning the dampening, but am really happy with the ride height and smaller fender gap. What's interesting is how smooth it is on the highway at speeds above 60. Slower speeds are a bit more jittery, but I can adjust that with the dampening and find that sweet spot.

GreenCactus Posted May 8, 2018 Report Posted May 8, 2018 They book up fast, especially if you need to go on a Saturday! It took almost a month for me to get Michael's car in.
MELO-R56 Posted May 8, 2018 Author Report Posted May 8, 2018 The 4 wheel alignment at PTUNING was $135. Club discount of 10% was applied to that. I did adjust the front a bit before the alignment, dropped it a .25". 2009 Mellow Yellow MCS, JCW Aero Package, JCW intake, JCW Steering Wheel, NM Engineering strut tower brace, Nvidia Q300 Cat Back Exhaust, ST XTA Coilovers, Madness Motorworks 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar, GP2 Rear Diffuser, Powerflex front control arm bushings, R112 Black Challenge Wheels, Bridgestone Potenza Tires

MELO-R56 Posted May 9, 2018 Author Report Posted May 9, 2018 It used to be Freddy, but he has recently left PTUNING. In general, anyone who answers the phone, however Mike the manager is a MINI owner and is very knowledgeable. 1 2009 Mellow Yellow MCS, JCW Aero Package, JCW intake, JCW Steering Wheel, NM Engineering strut tower brace, Nvidia Q300 Cat Back Exhaust, ST XTA Coilovers, Madness Motorworks 22mm Adjustable Rear Sway Bar, GP2 Rear Diffuser, Powerflex front control arm bushings, R112 Black Challenge Wheels, Bridgestone Potenza Tires
