Just like you, your MINI craves fresh air. The ALTA Performance™ Intake System is the only after-market alternative that provides a steady supply of cool fresh air thanks to a unique designed box, and smooth silicone inlet hose (available in red, blue and black). Crafted from cold-rolled steel, the air box is finished to achieve an original equipment look and feel. Finish it off with the new Box Top (see related part below) , sold separately. The ALTA Performance™ intake system pulls cold air from the factory air ram duct in the front grille and through the vent below the windshield. The isolated filter is bathed in cool fresh air and never exposed to the warm air under the hood. This is the only aftermarket intake system that is fed a constant supply of cool fresh air. And this is the only aftermarket intake that has proven the 10-12WHP gain many many times over. Check out our dyno graphs in the included photos.

 

Applications: Mini Cooper S (R53) 2002 - 2006 Mini Cooper S Cabrio (R52) 2005 - 2008

Even my wife likes the noise, and she likes a quiet car! Installed on: 2006 Mini Cooper S (R53) Own this item? Write your own review!
