Hmmm...I hope they're not the same exhaust! From what I have read about the PlayMINI, it's not supposed to add any power - just supposed to sound nice.

Anyone compared the standard Borla MINI S exhaust with sport Borla exhaust? If so, is the sport version something you could live with on daily drives and commutes or is it too loud?

I have HEARD from others that it is too loud for daily commuting. Davbret is one, I believe, who told me it was great on the race track but when he had to drive it on the street, it was pretty hard to take. There is a clip out there of a MINI with the race borla on a race track and yes it sounds very loud - at home on the racetrack but not on the street. Well for me, anyway....
