this is a BMC filter, it's not for mini, the tube is 80 mm (mini is 60 mm) but it's good and have a nice sound!

That's a nice mini. What plans do you have for it in the future? With some suspension mods, your car will handle better than most cars!

Thanks for the info. I was going to add the cold air intake filter - I know it increases the sound, but I did some research and it is supposed to add about 12 hp when cold...and then drop to about 8/9 hp. You said that you didn't get anymore performance out of it. Did you add the cold air intake? Let me know, because I don't want to waste the money - if it's not going to add some hp. ciao!

my mini with filter is great, never go bad, when engine is warm the result is the same that when cold, if u put something to keep warm out from filter use only carbon fiber because it don't became warm!!
I try to do this



but cover in aluminum was always WARM! and is not good!
Bye

Have you added the new air box or did you just add the new air filter?
