JIMINNI: CARB first. Jeff and I are working on something new as an end run on the CARB issues. (Very kool if this will work, but it will be 6-8 months away.) On the other, that would be nearly identical to my wife's convertible. That car ran out with a 15% pulley and the same mods 215 WHP. Hope that helps!
Thank you!
Thank you!
Also, how are you able to get 215 with only those mods. Mine pulled 208 with all the mods including the bigger valve head and cam!!
Granted I still run stock IC, header and Cat. But still, 208 with all the other mods seems very low compared to some here that have got that and then some with less mods. :impatient

Thanks Alta . We know you are trying your best, California can be a real pain, but just think when you do get certification, you best have a 1000 of these ready for sale .

Eric_Rowland: Sorry. They are welded from MINI and we do the same thing, put simply supply an amazing header pipe system welded to it for your convenience and performance! Seriously though, let us know if we can help in anyway further.
Putz: Not today. But VERY soon. New mounting system etc. coming soon for multiple gauges and sizes. Stay tuned!
Thanks guys and gals. Happy motoring this weekend! Enjoy em in good health!

Thanks for the reply. I'd ask MINI, but somehow I think I'd get the "Hi, I'm from MINI North America, please call us and reference case #694-481423568 so that we can better assist you."
I guess they assume that the ECUs are advanced enough that we're not going to be swapping out cats like in the old days. I hope they're right!!

Hi Alta,
I have an Alta V2 CAI & V2 15% pulley (great products) , I recently purchased your catch can but the body is collapsing under vacuum.
I noticed there was an aluminium sleeve mentioned in the instructions & the parts list to solve this but i did not receive it.
Can you help me.

Thanks guys!
steve11: Call us or your local dealer. Depending on when it was packaged will determine if it is in the box or not. The MSRP changed at the same time to reflect it. If that doesn't work I can give you the dims of the piece and you can get an equivalent at the local hardware store. Thanks again!
