Nice tool but needs modification to work perfectly

Good tool for the money. Turbos will need to cut the tab on the exhaust cam tool to fit properly. The flywheel locking tool was too long to fit in the bell housing without tool modification (handle brushed against oil pan making pin alignment impossible in FW, handle had to be removed, trimmed and welded). The 2009 Mini Cooper S was a patient.

Do not buy if you are using an n14 motor.

For n14 engine. Bracket in ex-cam hit the turbo. Had to cut the end off to fit, then found the hole for the mounting screw on the bracket was misaligned, then had to lengthen the hole and then the bracket has about 0.5mm of play to fit the ex-cam to lock in place ! This will crash time. Wtf can still go wrong. Can't go back now. Hopefully I'll get in touch with ewk to see if they give a guarantee on the former bracket. I had to order ewk master set for n14. So I hope it fits.

Pros
  • Tools and equipment
Cons
  • Operating speed

Went like clockwork!

I didn't understand the reviews. I have to remove a part of the tool that I don't really need, but I pull the head out due to a blown head gasket so I didn't have to modify anything. The cam tools were bolted on fairly easily. I was also able to jam the flywheel tool. I noticed that it was hitting the oil pan slightly and as soon as I looked at the tooling I saw that the weld had shifted slightly to the side. I was able to mount it straight and then just had to wiggle the handle back and forth…

Pros
  • Tool for the engine
Cons
  • Without machine
