MC and MCS? or just MC?

Unless of course the intake is of the individual throttle body type. :thumbsup: You would have MCSer's giving mad props too at that point. |

I have a Remus exhaust and I really like the sound from that.

Well obviously intake headers and exhaust, but what exhaust brings out the best of the Cooper. Some sound better than others, and I've heard some very good things about the Coopers sound and what its capable of.
I want to know more info about ITB's tho.. 1SXE-MINI if you happen to have any sound clips, I think you carry the title for best sounding car out there:nod: |

I also understand beauty is in the eye of the beholder. A pair of cherry bombs and an aftermarket header on a Cooper would also produce a nice tone. |

Custom, Exahust. HAI and you might be able to match the one car (happens to be a Cooper) that the only reason it doesn't sound better than an F430 or Enzo is because it isn't spinning over 8k RPM.

Borla exhaust and a free-flowing intake like the pipercross viper. I've heard it in person and it sounds amazing. It might be a little too good, because unfortunately the car doesn't go as fast as it sounds. :)
Just the Borla without an intake sounds really good, and doesn't suffer the "more show than go" problem. But if you want the best sound, Borla and intake. Wasn't there some exhaust shootout at the Dragon a few years back and people commented that the Borla / intake-ed Cooper was better sounding than any of the MCSes? |
The JCW Sound Kit is pretty awesome sounding, too. That is if you've got the $$. Well worth it though.

I had an old MINIMania exhaust on my 02 Cooper, and it was BY FAR the best sounding exhaust I have ever heard on any MINI, Cooper or S. The tone was very low and grumbly, something that you would expect from a car with much more muscle - not a MINI. What I would give to get that sound to come out of MINITOR!
