the M45's the brand spanker, i cut the lugs off the back plate to bolt it to my maniflold, this is a spare.
As you can see the M62's got a lot easyer inlet and outlet to mount to and is slightly smaller.
2 problems with it, its shorter snoot means you will have to mount it closer to the front of the engine which means you may have s/c to bonnet issue and also s/c to alternator issues but there will be loads of space behind it so NO brake servo issues
It also has hardly any lugs on the front to mount a tensioner to.
the M62s are also rare to find in good condition wee as you can get a delivery milage M45 for £200 or less.
For any one who dosnt know the number after the M is the 0.?? ltrs the charger displaces per rev.
Heres the MINI M45 against my other M45 from a merc
Merc ones wwwwwaaaayyyyyy to big with that great inlet on the back, non starter!
if i do it it will be twin mapped for boost or N/A with a bypass.
