all together, how much did you spend?

I think about $2,000 for all engine build parts and assembly cost.

$2000 total other performance stuff (supercharger, throttle body, exhaust, etc).

$1400 total exterior/interior and misc. crap I think

I don't really keep track of cost much..

I was gonna say DAMN, but I just spent $2k on intake, exhuast and a tune for my car.

2K for parts and build is nothing. You always find the deals man. Good work.

$2,000 for an intake and exhaust with a tune is a LOT. Where'd you go to get tuned? Speed Industry in Troy does full dyno tunes for $400.

JCW (John Cooper Works) - dealer, and they gave me a deal. List on the parts with no labor is $2,100. Just in the past couple months aftermarket shops have come out with tuning ability for the R56 (2nd gen MINI). I don't trust them yet - JCW comes with warranty protection. The dealer in GR is mod-friendly, but the one I'd get towed to if I had an issue in Shebly Twp isn't.
