Cold Air Intake System for R53 6spd Manual

Cold Air Box

The ALTA Cold Air Box is formed from laser cut aluminum sheet metal then CNC bent to perfection. Then finished in a rich black texture powdercoating for long term protection and an O.E.M. look. Our air box seals to the underside of the hood preventing under-hood heat from entering the intake air stream.

Sound

With an ALTA intake system, your car will make a throaty, deep tone on throttle that is undeniably modified. You will be able to hear your supercharger whining, both stock and aftermarket.

Cone Filter 2.75" Mouth for ALTA Intake Systems

Foam Filter

Our high flow foam filter reduces intake restriction and expands airflow surface area for improved performance. The multi layer foam design traps dirt at multiple levels, maintaining filtration efficiency without reducing horsepower as the filter gets dirty.

Intake Tube

The ALTA Inlet Hose connects the air box to the throttle body. With a mirror smooth finish inside and out, the silicone hose promotes increased air velocity traveling to the engine. Unlike the corrugated and ribbed factory inlet hose, turbulence is eliminated. Additionally, the ALTA Inlet Hose has a larger inside diameter to support the needs of your supercharger at all boost levels.

Power

ALTA is the only producer of a cold air intake system for R53 MINIs that truly provides a steady supply of cool fresh air! Thanks to our uniquely designed air box and smooth black silicone inlet hose, the ALTA Cold Air Intake has proven a 10-12 WHP gain many times over. Check out the DYNO CHARTS tab above for more details.

Finish

Powdercoated for protection against the elements, the textured finish will look awesome for years to come. The ALTA Cold Air Intake System for R53 6-speed manual is available in black or red texture powdercoating.
