I think James Hunt has one installed. I think he's gone though many exhausts just like me

I always question the high price though. There are plenty of other options out there that are just as good and cheaper.

The video doesn't really show the driver operating the car aggressively. The exhaust doesn't sound that obnoxious but it would definitely get a bit louder if the driver totally gunned it up to 5500 rpm or so and then shifted though the gears.

Also, when I google'd the price of a Supersprint catback, it was around $1300. That is REALLY steep for a cat-back Most systems are around $600-849 while still using T-304 stainless steel. Don't expect any huge gains in power/torque from a catback as well.

There are so many exhausts to check out and they all have sound clips on YouTube.

The ones that fit without bad rattles and misalignment off the top of my head are Invidia, DDMWorks, Way Motor Works, and of course Milltek.

To avoid any more confusion I would skip the forums and give Chad Miller @ Detroit Tuned a call or Way @ Way Motor Works. They work on MINIs full time and can tell you first hand which are the best in terms of quality, sound, fitment, and performance.
