Just got home and there was my intake waiting. Just installed it in about 20 minutes or so, and man does it bring that supercharger to life.

Power wise, it feels a little crisper and the throttle response is a lot better. I would recomend this to anyone whos debating it.

www.outmotoring.com <-- They have it for $167.99, awsome service, was here in 3 days from ground shipping. I defiently recomend them!

Glad to hear that you like it. I'm considering getting the BMP this spring. Maybe when I see you at an STLMINI event I can check out the growl!

BMP intake for the MCS-
Easy to install.
Well made.
Decent price.
Shiny chrome cover looks good and fits under front strut brace including BMP brace without modification.
Provides definitely louder SC sound.
Moderate power gain realistically estimated at about 5 HP.
Design keeps hot air out of intake box.
no need to do airbox modification with drilling of additional holes in cowl wall.

Enjoy.

Flatsix,

I second Redbird's comment above about meeting up to hear the 'growl'. We live pretty close together, so indeed if you let me know when and where you might be shopping some day, maybe I can meet you in the parking lot for a quick 'mini' meet! :smile:

You should check out the pipercross or the alta intake, the BMP sucks hot engine air in (though it is the best looking one).

Ofioliti check your PM! Mabey you me and redbird might be in a general location over the weekend and we could meet up or something so you can hear the BMP. I'd be more than happy to meet a few STL mini guys as only being 16 and the only mini in my area Ballas and Ladue behind the bread co. off ballas, i dont see them very often!
