Awesome! I had placed an order a week ago for the bulkhead panel, but got some notice saying it was out of stock. Will you be able to ship that piece any time soon? I still haven't passed the official "break in" on mine, so was going to wait until after that anyway (meaning the CAI will sit around here for a couple weeks probably).

How long you think it's going to take before the second group is full? If the order can be placed soon I'd be interested!

We're actually on the third group buy. We need 4 other participants before orders can ship.

Best,

Just got it installed today and it sounds amazing. Any tips on what to look for when wanting to verify everything is installed correctly? The car is running great so far and my BPV sounds LOUD. But I didn't expect to hear it even when shifting within 2-3k. I'm not complaining at all lol but would like to see if there are things I should look for.


P.S. Clint, you are awesome and provided me with a great buying experience. Thank you very much!

Sounds like all is hooked-up and you're good to go. Just check the CAI clamps and the clamp at the turbo inlet later this week to make sure that all is positioned properly after you get some mileage under your belt.

Best,

Hi everyone.

Peter, I just shot you an email with the deets.

For anyone else who's interested, here's what I need from you to join this latest group buy:

1) Send me your preferred email address for PayPal. I will send you an invoice for a 50% downpayment for a CAI at group buy pricing & whatever other parts that you wish to purchase at this time.

2) Let me know your preferred shipping address so that I can send you a quote.

3) Let me know if your MINI has a manual or an automatic transmission.


Drop me an email or PM if you have any other questions.

-Clint

Did you purchase the JCW intake tube? Or did it come with the intake? Looks NICE!

Great, you guys had to keep going on about how awesome this intake is and next thing I know I'm sending an email to Mini'mon. Oh well, I was bound to start modding my Mini eventually, I've had it since January after all.

Mini Coupe, that looks like the stock 2011 intake tube. At least, that's what mine looks like.
