BMP Supersprint Header and exhaust

Does anyone have experience with the BMP Supersprint Header and exhaust on a daily driver? I have the opportunity to purchase a used header and exhaust for a super cheap price. I am planning to maintain the factory resonator. Has anyone heard this exhaust system? Is it loud or smoothe? How does this effect the cars mpg?

I have the SuperSprint header and IE exhaust and I think it sounds great. Didn't notice a change with MPG and car feels stronger, not too loud or drony for me which is good since the majority of the Mini miles are Highway travel for work.

Thanks for responding. Did you keep the factory resonator?

I like that the SuperSprint header is a 4-2-1 design - should make a little better mid-rpm torque than a 4-1 design,
but the cost of the SS header plus their converter is over 2K new.

Just watch the classifieds on several forums, I picked up the header (used for a few weeks) and the metallic cat (new) both for ~$450

Send me a private msg. Right click on my user name and select private msg. I will sell the supersprint exhaust for $900. Which is almost half price from what I know.
