Performance kit advice???

Hi Everyone,

I have Mini R53 so I don't know that much about the R56 performance kit. A friend asked me about modifying the R56. I suggested to him ALTA but I couldn't tell him what exactly to take so I decide to ask NAM members. Guys which items have to get? filter,boost tube etc. R56 non-JCW

Thanks, for the help.

Hi...this is a tough question....what's his/her budget? I am big fan of Alta performance. I have the following items from them:
Cold Air Intake
Full Turbo Back Exhaust
22mm Rear Sway Bar
All Boost Tubes
Stealth Black Front Mount Intercooler
Depending on budget, i'd recommend all. As far as first items I would suggest, would be the CAI and the Rear Sway Bar. All items, IMO, are as advertised.
Hope this helps.

The answer depends upon what his goals are, as well as budget, and skills.
