7/14 UPDATE: As the demand of our exhaust system grows, we have decided to make a very big change in the pricing to ensure EVERYBODY gets a huge discount. The group buy is now underway and we have lowered our price to $599.00 + shipping for the full Catless exhaust system! We will need need a minimum of 15 people on the group buy to make this happen! If you have already purchased our RR R56 Catted/Catless downpipes, please email us for pricing. All pre-orders will receive an immediate refund of the difference paid. Package deals are available as well! Thank you guys!
Riss Racing is proud to present the new line of performance products for The R56 Mini Cooper S/JCW. Looking for a way to make the Mini sound much more aggressive with a clean sound, we decided to work with a very straight through 2.5" system.
Fully constructed of top quality Stainless Steel from the downpipe to the muffler tips, we have not taken any shortcuts with the full system.
Key Features:
• Riss Racing’s ~34 lbs. vs. OEM ~53 lbs!
• Straight flow, Mandrel Bent, 2.5” piping with Riss Racing's chambered exhaust system
• Increased air flow for maximized performance from low end to top end
• Reduced back-pressure for increased top-end performance and obsolete turbo lag
• Deeper tone at lower RPM's with a higher pitch scream at WOT
• 100% Direct Bolt-On with NO cutting involved. Bolts up to stock/Riss Racing catless/catted downpipes.
• Responsibly researched, developed, and engineered
• FIVE (5) YEAR MANUFACTURER’S WARRANTY
Applications:
• R56 Mini Cooper Riss Racing R56 Mini Cooper Full Exhaust System (catless system) $599.00 Group Buy Pricing
We're extremely happy with the layout of the exhaust system. The full system has many interchangeable components that you can really fine tune the system to your liking. Resonators, 2ndary cats, and straight pipes allow you to really tune the sound you're looking for. The system will come standard with titanium burnt tips but we can black them out if needed. Thanks guys!

This is what RISS posted on the first page of this forum, I ordered mine with a resonator, a $99 extra option... and that's the way it came with. What happened to the interchangeable components?
thanks for your response. So this will lower the sound in the cab? And I just want to set the record straight. I love the way it sounds but it's a bit too loud in the cabin. Do you have my ordering info or do I need to do it via your website?
Was that with or without the DP? If with, which DP?
The video is with the RR Catless Downpipes and resonated section. The sound quality is wonderful. You can hear the turbos spool and there is no "fart can" sound that some mufflers have. Very pure turbo race type system.
They should use my Clubman to make one when I pickkup the catted downpipe I ordered from them. I am excited to get possibly get an exhaust from them...

How long will this group buy last for?
I just ordered my mini on wed. It hasn't arrived yet. I am a little confused, how many cats does the mini have? i noticed you have a catted downpipe but in the main post you mentioned a full catless exhaust system. would i have to worry about voiding my warranty with this system?

Reason: bad question.
IF your worried about warranty I would get the catted downpipe and the resonated exhaust just to prevent hassles.
They cant void you warranty just because you have a catless system, as they have to prove that is what caused the issue, however sometimes its a hassle. Best thing is if your looking for the most power possible then go with the catless and put the OEM downpipe on when going in for service.
Just hope your service adviser is not a bleeding heart EPA supporter.

Any updates on the manufacturing process for those who've already paid for the system?
