hey guys i just got my brand new (to me) mini cooper s. Its an 07 and i was wondering what exhausts systems and intakes are good for my new mini becuase im planning on putting some nice goodies on it. I know that since it is a new car performance parts have not been mass-produced yet but i was wondering what some of you guys have on yours?

i was also wondering if you guys think the stuff on this site is good

http://www.altaminiperformance.com/


thanks!

 

Yes..the items on that site are good.. If you click the vendor directory on the left, they are our sponsors as well.
This may help, I just came across it last night:

Hello and thank you for considering ALTA for your new car! We have been around since 1996 and a member of this community since 2002! If you have any questions or concerns on ANY ALTA Performance products, or need some comparison information, just let me or my staff know!

Hope to help you soon!

 

Yeah, Alta is pretty much the #1 choice for aftermarket performance parts!

 

Go ALTA, or go home IMO. Not only are their parts top quality and make great power, you won't find a vendor on NAM with better customer service.

Hands down the best performance company I have ever done business with.

 

+1 for Alta stuff!

 

Thanks guys! I am blushing a bit!

 

umm, no. they are 1st to market most of the time

that better?

 

PGT: Be nice now! Let's not be stirring the pot over here my friend! But seriously, if there is ANYTHING I can do to help YOU out PLEASE let me know. Also, are you thinking to finally bite the bullet and move to the R56? I see you trolling in this end of the pond more frequently these days!

Anyway, have a great weekend!

 

I recomend the Borla Exhaust cause it sounds kick ***. I have this planned for my Mini.

Then I recommend the Alta CAI. I just ordered mine.

yeah i checked out the borla exhaust and i think im going to go with the alta exhaust becuase of the 3 inches of space it has for those lovely smelling fumes to come out of!!!!!

 

Check the Miltek too....

 

yeah i will

do any of you guys know the horspower gains to some of the high end exhaust systems?

 

ALTA has the gains for their system posted both here on NAM and on their website.
10WHP & 10 ft-lbs of torque for the catback, and an additional 10-12WHP & 10 ft-lbs of torque on top of that with the downpipe (making a turboback)

 

Don't forget any local exhaust shops who could build you a custom one to your own specs

 

yeah true but im kinda a newb right now so i owuldnt know how to make customize exhaust
