This Alta Performance Power Package includes the following parts: 
Alta Performance Cold Air Intake System ALTA Performance, again set the bar high for the competition! The new ALTA R56 cold air intake not only adds proven 10WHP and 10ft-lbs of torque to your 2007+ Mini Cooper S (AKA R56), but it also unlocks the sound from your turbo! With our intake not only will you hear the turbo sucking in and compressing the air, but you will here the OEM blow off valve blowing off.
Product Features:
High Flow Foam Filter The ALTA performance R56 cold air intake features our standard large diameter foam filter. Many ask us why not a "K&N Style" filter?? The problem is when those styles get dirty, the block air flow and create a restriction. Foam on the other hand flows almost the same as it does when clean or dirty. Foam traps the dirt as it passed through it, but at the same time allows air to flow around the trapped dirt. This is how it stays restriction free. As you see, foam is our choice of filter media as it provides virtually no restriction when clean or dirty.
Light Weight Aluminum Air Box The ALTA R56 air box was designed around light weight aluminum. This provides a nice stiff, strong, and corrosion proof shroud for the ALTA high flow foam filter. Like our other parts, a high quality black powdercoat is applied to keep things looking clean and finished for the life of the car. This allows our intake system to help remove weight from your car, not add it like some intake do.
Silicone Intake Hose Our 5ply Silicone Elbow is rated for 200psi, and 400 degrees. Like other ALTA products this part is over built to ensure a life time of use. This is one of the key features to our intake as the bend provides the proper MAF (Mass Air Flow) sensor reading. This is important to ensure proper metering of airflow, which ensures a safe AFR (Air Fuel Ratio) and to eliminate possibilities of check engine lights.
Cold Air/Fresh Air Seeing that the OEM scoop was blocked off on early models, we thought this was a great way to get cold fresh air into the filter. During our test and tune session on the dyno we proved that removing the scoop was important. The temp around the air filter droppped 30 degrees and the car gained 3WHP with it removed. Needless to say we continued with designing the intake around no scoop, and you can see how the final designed turned out! 
Alta Performance Boost Tube Upgrade Kit We understand the importance of performance AND style when it comes to modding your MINI Cooper. This product encompasses an excellent balance of both!
The 5-ply silicone tubing is available in both black and red, and the glossy exterior surface dresses up the engine bay for your next show n shine or just for your enjoyment during your next oil change.
Speaking of smooth, the ultra smooth interior surfaces of each tube remove intakes restriction that can otherwise hinder performance. Your car uses a turbocharger to force air into the motor, so any corrugation, dips, pits etc. all choke the efficiency of the turbo system. Additionally, your MINI came with a ridiculous muffler section on the hot side of the intercooler plumbing. This muffler literally robs the car of power. Our Boost Tube kit removes that muffler and makes a smooth transition from the turbo outlet directly into the intercooler.
Tubes install easily with basic hand tools and included instructions.
Features - 5-Ply Silicone Construction - Smooth inner lining to remove restriction - Eliminates I/C muffler to improve flow and boost response - Color options to compliment any engine compartment
Included Items - Complete hot side boost tube replacement (replaces 3 of the OEM part with one Silicone hose) - Cold side throttle body to boost tube - Instructions - Mounting hardware and clamps 
Alta Performance MCS Silicone Turbo Inlet Tube We understand the importance of performance AND style when it comes to modding your MINI Cooper. This product encompasses an excellent balance of both!
The 5-ply silicone tubing is available in both black and red, and the glossy exterior surface dresses up the engine bay for your next show n shine or just for your enjoyment during your next oil change.
While we initially developed this product as a dress up part to compliment the rest of the ALTA items, we were pleasantly surprised when the dyno results revealed good news. The illustration below shows how this product removes intake restriction. The hose on the left is the OEM unit sliced in half, and the ALTA replacement inlet hose on the right. Note the dramatic differences in ID's from one to the other. This allows a larger volume of air to be ingested with less restriction.
As you see, it actually gained HP! This is a run with our intake, FMIC, and turboback already installed. We were again pleased that the gains were very repeatable and that from run to run there was the same 7-8WHP from about 5400 RPM on up. This is a great looking part, and has been shown it performs just as well if not better than it looks. Combined with the ease of installation (less then 5 minutes) it will become part of our formula to make your MINI that much faster!
Features - Silicone 5 ply construction - Removes corrugated OEM hose - Easy installation - More HP & TQ - Improved throttle and boost response
Included Items - Silicone Tube - 2 Clamps - Warranty - Decals
PLEASE NOTE: All Alta intakes now come with a black filter, red filters are no longer available.
