Building a set of mods and deciding on the catback...

I am looking for the deepest, burbliest, most aggressive sounding exhaust possible.

I want it to sound like a race car, however, i do NOT want ricey resonating edgy sound, not an annoying sound...i want to have no drone at highway speed and be able to hear the radio...

I am not adding a header so it will just be catback alone...

Cost is a factor but not a huge one as most are similar in price...

Whats the best exhaust for this...

Thanks!
Randy

 

i like the Magnaflow....i have one on my car...deep burble...always getting compliments and to me it doesnt drone much at all

 

Borla Sport.

 

I second the Borla.

 

Miltek sounds good

 

i like the minspeed one.

http://video.google.com/videoplay?do...22773080491861 IE sounds good too.

 

check out some of the exhaust videos on youtube, they're not the best but they will give you some idea of what the different exhausts sound like

 

I have the Magnaflow exhaust and though it sounds really good I would take the burble of the Invidia exhaust any day of the week!!

 

MINSPEED and remove the resonator...I did and I like it.

 

X100 magnaflow... but take out the resonator... oooooo now thats sexy!

 

Any videos of the IE with drive byes as well as in cabin driving?

 

Not yet, will try to get them next time he's in town.

 

I'll put one vote down for Dinan: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=N7STngceMSY

 

IMO the Invidia sounds the least "ricey" and happens to look great IMO

 

Magnaflow +101

 

I have the Miltek and like that sound. the Magnaflow can get droney at high RPMs. The Borla Sport sounds really nice as well.

 

volt exhaust is the best sound if you can find one.

 

+1 for the invidia
so burbly

 

exhausts are very subjective. i'd try to go to a local mini meet and sample some exhaust notes in person. that process led me to milltek....but it could take you somewhere else?! anywho, it's a decent chunk of change so i'd take the time and do some research before you pull the trigger. and yes, i know that's easier said than done. it is one mod that people definitely notice...so you want to do it well .

 

I wouldn't worry about drone too much. You will get used to whatever drone there is in a month or two. Sort of like sensory adaptation...

 

Another vote for Invidia, (I have it), the Borla Race is throatier, but the Invidia has the best burble on the market, IMO. Even non-MINI owners stop me to ask about it.

The welds and tips are oustanding, too.

 

The invidia is sounding most interesting...I LOVE burbly!

How loud is it? I want loud but not annoying loud...

i just installed the magnaflw, latest version with real dual exit and love it, sound like it suppose to sound and give a lot more power, you will feel it for sure, and hear it of course

 

I just listened to this one and a few other magnaflow on MCS cars, but this one blew me away...the magnaflow sounds awesome...

I liked the invidia youtube clips too, but not as much as the magnaflow...and its cheaper...

But i have to get the NEW version with y instead of t connection right?

What do yall think?
