crackerjack: Thanks for the interest. this product is NOT directed at the first time light MINI user. It is more of a hardcore item that requires quite a few addl mods, custom tuning etc. etc. However, that does NOT imply that it isn't a sound and solid product. The early manifolds did have a few issues, but those have LONG been addressed and each client affected did get a new manifold. If you have ANY questions about the kit and if it is a good fit for your vehicle PLEASE let me or Jeff know.

Thanks again for your interest in ALTA!
