I'm not certain but I heard that Behe Performance, Olney, Md. can fabricate the performance exhaust system. They might be able to help you with that.

http://www.luckydoggarage.com/

My 2 cents.

How does the RMW exhaust/header sound on your MINI?

like this:





the center section appears to have rotated just a hair in the jig. It needs to be rotated maybe 5 degrees and retacked...the resonator touches the heatshields once fully warmed up and expanded
