Drivetrain I've been bitten!
I've been bitten!
...by the modding bug ...and it feels gooood!
I just bought an alta v2 diverter/sprayer and an alta v2 CAI. Installed them both at the same time. I can't say enough about the Alta intake. The sound alone is worth the 300 dollars. Installation went on without too many issues. I ran the sprayer from the rear wipers. I didn't split the line because i didnt want to spray fluid on the window anytime i wanted to spray.
Here's a pic...ignore the dirty engine bay...I have a lot of tools and time, but no water hookup outside lol

here is quick clip of the sound for those of you who may not have this mod yet, The supercharger whine makes me happy...anyways, video...windows up 5-80mph or so


As for peformance, I honestly can't tell if there is a big difference or not, I'm sure its there...but only having the MINI for 3 weeks or so, I haven't had the ability to calibrate the butt dyno yet. I can't wait for my next motor mod, I just havent decided what I want to do next. I also want to thank Aaron and Outmotoring for helping me out with this purchase and the other goodies i picked up, and for showing me around the shop while I was visiting Columbus. I without a doubt will do business with them again.
