Alta Performance Intercooler for Mini Cooper S

$500 + Shipping
Excellent Condition with original box
Call Rob @ (510) 329-2900

The ALTA Performance top mount intercooler uses a bar and plate intercooler because of its huge internal volume which is 40% larger then stock and over 100% more surface area for better cooling. Bar and plate intercoolers have a greater resistance to road debris and rocks compared to tube and fin designs. Our end tanks offer a smooth transition as air flows across the intercooler and back into the intake pipes. Every unit is pressure tested just before it is placed into the box ensuring now boost pressure lost.

The ALTA Performance intercooler heat shield also integrates a water spray jet to increase intercooler efficiency. Lower intake charge temperatures all at the push of a button.

Construction
The bar and plate core is the most durable design on the market. Cast aluminum end tanks insure accuracy and quality to every piece.

What is your impression of the v2.0 quality. How well did the installation go?

just ordered it, i won't know until it gets here.

from what i read, you need to grind down a few tabs, 10-15 minute job according to Alta

and

trim the bottom piece of your stock intake scoop to generate more air/or better flow to their IC.

i'll check it out, maybe do an install post w/pics
