Cold Air Intake System 6-spd
Now introducing RED Airbox!!
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 black silicone inlet hose.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(part #AMP-INT-250) , 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 10-12WHPgain many many times over. Check out our dyno graphs in the charts section.
AIR FLOW
The stock air intake system
The stock air intake draws air in through the scoop in the frontgrille. The air is passed into the lower portion of the air box whereit is pulled through the air filter and into the throttle body. Once inthe supercharger the air is compressed through the intercooler and intothe motor.
The weakest point in the system is the inefficient air ducting,which takes many, unnecessary turns and has a corrugated finish, whichdisrupts airflow.
Alta Performance™ cold air intake system
The Alta intake system pulls cold air from the air ram duct in thegrille and through the vent below the windshield. The box is sealed tothe hood and prevents under hood heat from entering the intake airstream. The filter encapsulated in a fresh air bath. Reducing inlet airtemperatures will create a cooler, denser air charge raising HP, andtorque.
AIR BOX
The new Alta Performance™ air box is formed from cold rolledsteel. Laser cut and CNC bent to perfection. Power coated silverfor protection and an O.E.M. look. The new air box top will fitperfectly into the bottom of your factory air box. The box will besealed to the underside of the hood and prevent under hoodheat from entering the intake stream.
FOAM FILTER
Our high flow foam filter reduces intake restriction andincreases the surface area from which the engine can ingestclean air. Unlike cotton and gauze type filters, foam filtersallow for multi layer filtration. The ALTA Performance™ foam basedfilter will trap dirt within the filter at many different levels. Thisallows for better particulate restriction and will not reduce HP as thefilter gets dirty.
INLET HOSE
Finally the rubber inlet hose connecting the air box to the throttlebody is also replaced. The inside of the factory part is corrugated andribbed disrupted airflow. Turbulence is created and airflow velocity isreduced, compromising throttle response and upper end HP. Our siliconehose has mirroring smooth inside walls promoting a high velocity aircharge. This silicone piece is available in high gloss blue, red andblack to dress up the engine bay.

INTAKE IS NOT CARB APPROVED, CALL WITH MORE QUESTIONS!
Please note that the classic intake and 2.0 are the same intake, but with different color airboxes.
Below are some of the many dyno runs backing up our claim of highest gaining Wheel HP intake on the Mini market. The intake gains are very similar with different pulleys install, exhaust, headers and chips all gaining 10-15WHP.
The below test is a bone stock Mini S with only a 15% Version 2.0 SCpulley installed. This shows the before and after with our Cold Airintake being installed.
The dyno graph above is our first test of the ALTA CAI on our firstMini Cooper S. No modifications other than the intake system. To thisday, no one has proven any other intake to make more Wheel HP.
The dyno graph above is from one of our Aussie customers dynoing ourcomplete ALTA CAI on a stock Mini Cooper S. Also backing up our WHPclaim.
The dyno graph above is a comparison done on the North American Motoring website . This compares some of the other popular intakes out there. This is one of the many public dyno comparos done. NAM is a great site, if you are a new Mini owner.
This above graph is from a dealer that dynoed there 19% Mini S with aGIAC chip installed. This car also had a catback installed, but justthe complete Alta Cold Air Intake was changed between runs!
