Alta Performance 02-08 MINI R53 Intake System
The ALTA intake system pulls cold air from the air ram duct in the grille and through the vent below the windshield. The box is sealed to the hood and prevents under hood heat from entering the intake airstream. This keeps the filter surrounded by a fresh air bath. Thus reducing inlet air temperatures creating a cooler, denser air charge raising HP, and torque.
Air Box
The ALTA Performance air box is formed from laser cut aluminum sheet metal CNC bent to perfection. The airbox has a black texture power coat for protection and an O.E.M. look. Our airbox seals to the underside of the hood preventing under hood heat from entering the intake stream.
Foam Filter
Our high flow foam filter reduces intake restriction and increases the surface area from which the engine can ingest clean air. Unlike cotton and gauze type filters, foam filters allow for multi-layer filtration. The ALTA Performance foam based filter will trap dirt within the filter at many different levels. This allows for better particulate restriction and will not reduce HP as the filter gets dirty.
Inlet Hose
The ALTA silicone inlet hose, connects the air box to the throttle body with a mirror smooth silicone hose promoting a high velocity air charge. Unlike the corrugated and ribbed factory inlet hose, turbulence is eliminated and air flow velocity is increased as the ALTA inlet hose has a larger inside diameter.
Power
ALTA Performance intake system is the only producer of intake system for the MINI R53 that truly provides a steady supply of cool fresh air! Thanks to our unique designed box, and smooth black silicone inlet hose. The ALTA intake has proven a 10-12 WHP gain many many times over.
