"Does f5135 have to be welded on to stock dp?" Just clamped.
Yes,
We spoke with Milltek and they stated will not fit for the fJCW. Maybe something lost in translation with your shop ?

I'm suspicious of this, because the engines are identical on the outside. My $0.02 is they don't know that and are blindly assuming different model = different engine = different exhaust.
The downpipe part numbers are identical between F55 Cooper S B48, F56 Cooper S B48, and JCW B48.

ur probably right but three sources plus the Milltek factory have confirmed it wont fit.
I would like to take a chance but 2k is a lot of money to waste plus labor.

I think this Kenny guy is a bit out of the loop. I've emailed him about fitting Milltek DP on stock exhaust and he also said it cannot be done. Their website and even ECS implies that it could in fact be done with the appropriate adapter (Euro/US).
"Hi Michael,
Thank you for your email.
As stated on our website, our downpipes/sports cats only link up to our Milltek Cat Back exhaust systems.
Sorry for any inconvenience.
Thanks,

I will post a video soon, but at 477 miles I just did the muffler delete with DC Sports 3" dual tailpipe. Looks factory and sounds amazing with absolutely zero drone at any speed.
This is the tips that I used

for the record, i came from a muffler-delete setup and i love this so much more. i know there's mention that the muffler-delete doesn't drone....but it does... it really does...it was okay at first but then it got on my nerves. Now with my new setup, i'm enjoying the cars sound a lot more.
