I have a 2006 mini s. Its brand new and I want a new exhaust, cold air intake, and whatever else will help me boost the hp. I do have the sports package. What brands, good deals and where do I get them? thx:impatient

 

I suggest doing some research....honestly, this will turn into a big flame war over which company is better, which parts, etc. DO research and find out which is best for YOU.

There are plenty of vendors on here, so look at the Vendor Directory for places to buy from. The most popular seems to be M7 and ALTA.

If you want to increase boost - I would highly suggest to go with the money for the buck reduction size pully. The brand of the pully really doesnt matter as much as finding a good shop that has knowlange on Minis. And as for CAI and Exhast, you arent going to see as big as an increase compare to if you were to get a reduction pully. A few places to check out besides the Alta link and M7 are below. Outmotoring is a good place to start in terms of you can check out your options of intake, exhaust, pully.

hope this helps.

 

Personal choices:

Intake: Alta CAI with top cover & silicone intake tube

Exhaust: Magnaflow (i liove the tips on it!)

 

Exhaust - very personal choice - how loud ? single sided or dual? budget? you can spend 125 bucks up to 1,000

CAI - many available - open or sealed box? foam or paperfilter preference?

Pulley - best hp buck but depending on dealer warranty issues.

Ecu upgrade - compliments all of the above.

How far do you want to go?

 

if you like loud and alot of wheight savings go ALTA!!!!!! do go full though. header-on-back.(fead your monkey)!!!!!
