Brake cooling system upgrade for 2002-2006 mini cooper hardtops and 2005-2008 mini cooper convertibles

For 2002-2006 MINI Cooper Hardtops and

Congratulations on your purchase of the Performance Brake Cooling System

Upgrade for the track. This setup is designed to reduce operating temperatures

of the front brakes under extreme conditions. The result is a more consistent and

predictable braking performance throughout an event.

NOTE: Inlet Scoops may prevent full-lock on the wheel once the kit is

installed depending on the size and offset of wheel – BE AWARE of this

when driving! Scoops can be modified to allow full-lock if necessary.

Kit Contents:

• 2 ea. Anodized Backing Plate

• 2 ea. Polyethylene Scoops

• 2 ea. 500°F Silicone Ducting

Take all necessary precautions when working on your MINI. Mini Mania Inc. is

not responsible for any damages or injuries incurred during the installation.

1. Properly lift and

support the front end of

the car, and remove

the wheels.

2. Remove the brake calipers by removing the two bolts that secure the

calipers to the strut and support them in a way not to damage the brake

lines.
