2 TIMES BIGGER THAN OEM!

The ALTA FMIC air volume is 2 times bigger than the OEM intercooler and has 3 times the ambient cooling surface area! This all translates to cooler temps and more Horsepower!.....And yes this is bigger than the competitors intercoolers!

PROVEN HORSEPOWER

This dyno graph shows the HP and TQ gaines when installing the ALTA front mount intercoller on an R56 with a turboback exhaust. The only part changed between runs was intercooler. The MINI was super consistent and was very happy to have an ALTA intercooler installed!  This is one of the many dyno graphs proving the benifits of the ALTA FMIC.

NO COMPROMISES

We intentionally do not compromise performance by making our intercooler smaller just to save you 20 minutes of install time.  Our competitors like to scare you into thinking our intercooler is difficult to install.

With only some minor trimming of some non-important plastic, you will gain more power and have a perfectly centered intercooler. You can see how our intercooler perfectly tucks behind the bumper beam and bumper.

45-55F COOLER CHARGE TEMPS!

The ALTA FMIC cooled the charge temps down 45F-55F degrees cooler than the stock FMIC. Unlike competitors we tested these intercoolers on our dyno, on the same day, within 1 hour of each run.  These tests performed on a JCW. (Stock car with a  Stage 1 ECU tune) What you can't see is how repeatable these numbers are!They are solid every time!

10-20 WHEEL HORSEPOWER GAINS

These are dyno numbers backing up the above temp graph.  The MINI is the same JCW with a  Stage 1 tune, Only the intercooler was swapped out between runs.  The 10-20WHP and 10-12 Ft-lbs of torque are great gains!

Fills The Mouth of Bumper

Our intercooler is designed to be as big as possible and utilize as much of the ambient air coming through the bumper as possible. You can see our intercooler fills the whole mouth of the bumper.

Jeff: The Rumor Buster

Don't be fooled by theory and random numbers tyring to convince you an intercooler makes power.  We have the proof and show you how we ended up with the design you see here. Along with this is tons of dyno graphs proving the power on different stages.   CLICK HERE FOR THE FULL STORY 

55F-65F COOLER CHARGE TEMPS!

Here is another test done on the same car as above but in Stage 2 form. Stage 2 is when a turboback exhaust is installed along with a proper ECU tune.  Nothing was done between the runs except changing the intercooler to an ALTA FMIC.

20-25 WHEEL HORSEPOWER GAINS

Any JCW would love to have power like this!  The ALTA FMIC is key to making consistent big power on any level of R56 or JCW!  Don't worry R56 owners, we see similar overall gains in Stage 2 form.
