Description:
Now available, NM Intake system for the new 2011 MINI Cooper S with N18 engine for the US model.
The Open-Air-Box system gives you the abundance and unrestricted 360° of air source compared to OEM’s sealed air box with flat filter and tube fed air source. During R&D, we installed temperature probes around the engine compartment and the gauge showed the inside temperature matched the ambient after vehicle speed past 20 mph. And by logging the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensor also showed that open-air-box intake generated higher volume (gr/sec) of air going through the sensor. So when we had to choose between (a) cooler air at all speed with limited air source, vs. (b) cooler air at 20~ mph. with unlimited air source, the choice was pretty obvious.
MINI did a great job on 2011 model MCS in improving the turbo intake tube by replacing the soft rubber tubing with a full size and rigid ABS plastic one, similar to NM’s aluminum/silicone version that we offer for the 2007-2010 MCS & JCW vehicles. So we decided to leave the inlet tube out and price out the kit to be more economical.
• C.A.R.B. Exempt! EO# D-236-14
• This kit fits US & Canada MCS with N18 engine (2011) as well as older model with N14 engine (2007-2010).

- Andy's Auto Know Dictionary Term: Short Ram Intake
Bill Neumann is the founder of Neuspeed, which is headquartered in Camarillo, California. Neuspeed is an iconic company among euro tuners and import tuners since Neuspeed specifically caters their careful product design to those vehicles.
Q: What is a short ram intake? Why buy a short ram intake?
A: Short ram intakes bring more air into your car's engine, which creates more power during combustion. Short ram intakes will help with throttle response and gives your car more power, while at the same time adding a pleasing induction sound to your engine under acceleration. A short ram intake also significantly cleans up your under-hood appearance and makes it easier to see and access components of your engine bay.
Q: What's the difference between a short ram intake and a cold air intake?
A: Cold air intakes are usually placed in the fender well area, which brings in a cooler charged air from beneath the car (outside of the engine bay), which is denser and therefore creates more power. The piping is a lot longer than a short ram which means the power gains are not seen until the mid to higher RPM band. A short ram intake is located inside the engine bay and creates power with better response times than a cold air, however the air is not as dense, which means that it doesn't make as much power in the upper RPM region and makes less power overall.
Q: How do you install a short ram intake?
A: Short ram intakes are a true bolt-on application. The removal of your factory air box and resonator will be needed and the short air intake installed in its place. Basic hand tools are needed, and the intake installs in minutes.
