ALTA Cold Air Intake System - MINI Cooper S (R53) - 6spd Manual
ALTA Performance builds intake systems specifically for the supercharged MINI platform, focusing on shorter, straighter intake paths and cooler air draw to sharpen throttle response. This cold air intake system is designed for the MINI Cooper S, replacing the restrictive factory airbox with a setup that pulls in cooler, denser air for a genuine gain in horsepower and torque.
This listing covers the MINI Cooper S (R53) fitted with the 6 speed manual gearbox. The intake is available in red or black powder coated finish, selectable via the variant options on this listing page.
Note: this kit is designed specifically for 6spd manual R53 models — confirm your gearbox type before ordering, as ALTA offers a separate intake for automatic equipped cars.
Key Features
- Reduces intake air temperature for a denser, cooler air charge
- Increases horsepower and torque over the factory airbox
- Shorter, straighter intake tract improves throttle response
- Available in red or black powder coated finish
Vehicle compatibility, OEM part numbers, and fitment notes are provided in the tabs above. Please confirm your MINI's transmission type and model year before ordering.
