I will try to get some out of the box pics and the weights posted this weekend. The unit is 2 piece. Solid top and bottom. BTW I have a slightly used Madness intake, box and filter FS now. No reasonable offer refused.

 

Post it in the Marketplace section of this forum. I'm sure it will sell quite fast!

 

Gruppe M on a Mini...........sweet

im use to seeing them on M's, thats a first ive seen it on a MCS.

 

After doing some real stop and go traffic in downtown Seoul today.....1 hour to go about 10 miles (yikes) and sometimes getting into third gear I checked the box temp.....it retains the heat although I do have the Madness cowl mod. We will be doing some checking at the shop tomorrow as to how this is or will affect the engine performance. The real test will be at track days where I can open it up.

 

Will have to check with GruppeM and see if changing the hose is recommended or not. If so....dunno....black hose? May look cool.......

 

true dat! ...cant see it posin' a problem tho.
black would rock, great finish to an already beautiful piece of werk.
.
when will u hit tha track?

 

Great intake. I'm going to mount a GruppeM airbox to my Cooper soon. got it used so I paid it one third of the price...

 

It looks great...but I could do soooo much with $1,000

 

like, paint your engine bay for mo powah???

 

Yeah I see you have quite a bit of red, PGT...must make you lightspeeds quicker than me...I guess having a indi blue S is always going to be one of the slowest on the road...


Give me a few years...tops...and it will be one of the quickest ever!!!

 

Dang, 1k for the intake....and people complain about PU parts being expensive...

You better be getting great gains over any of the other intakes to make that price tag worth it... or your just looking for the bling factor

 

6hp!

 

6hp...

 

on a MC...

 

checks forum. Drivetrain (Cooper S)

 

I know But my claim of the 6 hp was for a MC, so it's not fair to use it against the product if you are talking about the MCS one.

 

Regardless.....Cooper/Cooper S....
I could think of a dozen ways to better spend 1k on my car....
Even if it's a few more than 6hp gain....

 

I can too

 

 

Beautiful piece,just can't justify price.

 

If I didn't have my mortgage, I'd happily pay the $1k for the Gruppe M intake - such a beautiful piece of engine bling.

 

very nice! I have to wonder how much more performance for the money the intake can deliver. but then again. why not! if you like it and you can afford it. go for it!

 

Very nice, love the CF intake, not cheap but a real quality product.

What intercooler are you running?
Did you get rid of the DFIC?
Notice any difference?

 

yeah glad to see some hai's are still around !!. and yes 1k is too steep for me but whatever flips your hair back... glad you're happy ,it does look nice .

 

The difference is in the quality of the parts...
