I feel as though its almost a necessity to have at least some sort of exhaust on my Mini with it being a standard. Its so much easier to heel toe rev match downshifting. Even taking off from a start just being able to hear the engine makes working the clutch that much easier. I was so happy when I got my Invidia and now that I'm used to it I'm looking forward to getting a header to help increase the tone a little bit more.

 

nice!

 

worth some bigger arches ?
would look even meaner

 

plus 1, you can see the carbon when you rev.
the concept is cool, but dual exhaust L/R side would be cool. Im not to keen on a straight pipe ( no muff) sound, sounds like a honda,

 

OK. Quick video. Mounted the camera up for some footage. I still have to do in-car, and flyby, and what not. Enjoy!

Nice job shooting that footage I also didn't really notice that the tip is a nice polished chrome...looks real good man and sounds mean

 

sounds better while driving but I would still try to make it a bit deeper on the tone with a small magnaflow muffler...that's just me as far as the looks it looks good and sounds good...great job

 

Please, Sir....may I have some more? I friggin' love it, man! Please, please, please give us what we want; A Fly By. I really want to hear what it sounds like comin' up the street...goin' down the road...WHATEVER!!

Really, you've done a great job.

 

Thanks a lot!

If I have time tomorrow, I will try and do a quick flyby shot. If not, then I can do it on tuesday.

 

do u need any help? i am going ot norwalk tomoorw and can swing by if timing goood...

 

+1 on flyby vid,and an additional request for a "tunnel blast"
-Frank,can you share what this project ran ,price wise?

 

Ok. Will do flyby vid tomorrow. I'd try for a tunnel blast, however there aren't any near me...at all. I always looked for tunnels, but alas, no luck. With the new setup though, I don't need them.

 

Frank......do the parking garage at the Mall, late at night! And how about the using the bridge over Sugar Hiollow Rd as your tunnel? The exit past Marcus going south on 7....

 

hmmm. Oh. I can have max mount my camera on his car and we'll go through the covered bridge on the way up to lrp for parade laps!

 

That is one sweet sounding ride I was trying to picture that Mini being a Honda and I still could not hear any resemblance
Nice Job!

 

Well, it sure sounds pretty darn good to me...
I'll take one!
How much would it cost for your guy to fabricate up the section that fits up to the joint on a Milltek? It's just a slip fit after the center resonator. Geez, I think even I could do this. Oh, I don't have time--too busy working.

 

Thanks for the comments!

Quickly done flyby, etc...

Enjoy!

The sound doesn't do it justice in this video for some reason. ?

 

You are a marauder of the highest order,Frank!The town folk will hunt you with torches at nightfall,like Frankenstine's monster!That is so deliciously obnoxious!I LOVE IT!!!MOTOR ON,rather MARAUD ON!

 

haha nice video...you should name your Mini the "Leaf Blower"

 

Love the burble right after off throttle!

 

thanks!

 

I like how it sounds at lower RPM, but the rasp at the higher RPMs....esh no thanks. As long as you enjoy, and i dont have to hear it daily, have fun with it !! I do like the fact you are trying to think outside the box as much as possible.

 

Wow, you said what I was thinking but much more eloquently!

There are times where that 19 year old punk rocker with blue spiky hair from my yesteryear comes out & I'd drive this thing up and down the street flipping everyone I see off.

Truly creative application of the side exit. But one quick question, why not the driver's side?

 

going for the race car single side exit.

 

Originally was going to do both sides, then after talking it over with the guys at the shop, we decided only to do the passenger side. 1) lessens the chance for me to be breathing in exhuast fumes if just sitting in traffic or idling, 2) the drivers side would have been more difficult. 3) doing both sides would have been a PITA
