How to Make Custom Axles and Driveshaft Supports - AWD Mini Cooper Ep. 26

Описание: We finally get to the goods of our project improvements, custom fabricated axles and driveshaft supports. One of the first things we noticed during our first few test drives 2 years ago was that the rear suspension was crude and did not perform well enough to make us happy. Due to the uneven length rear control arms, the suspension gain over 5 degrees of camber across the full travel. Although the custom parts worked, we opted to start testing some OEM options that may just be able to fit. To our surprise, the parts were a straight bolt on solution and knocked out one of our stage 1 requirements (Speedometer and Odometer functionality), reduced weight by moving from welded steel to cast aluminum, and less road noise due to less metal on metal mounted components.

Stage 2:
Install sleeper 16g turbo - DONE (Video in the future with engine build)
Finish tuning fuel and ignition tables (it's ok to about 12 or 13 psi, but we need to turn this way up)
Setup flex fuel (done)

Stage 3:
Build transmission to handle 400+ awhp (done)
Upgrade clutch disk and pressure plate (done)
TURN UP THE BOOST BABY (technically above wastegate pressure already haha)
