Improved MC Intake Manifold? 2005

Does anyone make an improved intake manifold for the standard MC? I have a 2005 that I need to replace a broken intake manifold on and would upgrade if one were available.

Thanks,
Mike

I think you might mean Mini Madness <click it> rather than Mini Mania......right? [In the "related products" section at the bottom of the page.]

That's an MCS manifold at the bottom of the Mini Madness page.
CabMike has an MC.

Actually, i just got off the phone with m7 tuning and they are introducing a tubular intake manifold, no news on the release date but my guess is August when they launch their new site

m7 is going to make one? does that mean that i dont have to cast my own? haha. although, if its tubular, i dont think it is what i want, but then again, im the one that says a NA motor will make the same power as a blower motor (just requires alot more money), and i plan on proving it with my mini. So there isnt much aftermarket stuff that will fill my needs. But glad to see vendors are starting to pay more attention to us, not just s guys.
