Drivetrain eBay header/ cat combo
eBay header/ cat combo
Has anyone bought or used one of these, I think mine is getting clogged due to everytime I get on it meaning hard acceleration I get the rotten egg smell. I don't seem to have all the power it should have. Here is a link to the one I am looking at.http://m.ebay.com/itm/262858996371?_...98&_mwBanner=1

You do not say whether you are R50 or R53 but I do know that the R53 engine puts out allot of heat and wondering how long that CAT will last.
Moving this to the Mod section as pretty sure you will get more pros and cons. How many miles on your current unit? Have you looked at a salvage/ebay unit?

Try a junkyard near you! Nothing wrong with saving good Mini parts from the scrapheap. Anything that isn't rubber or hard to replace is a good candidate. For instance, I've purchased the following good, used working parts from the junkyard:
Window
Window motor
Glovebox
Bypass Valve
Radiator/Radiator Hoses
Of course, you have to be careful and inspect the quality of the parts, and always be prepared to walk away, but it's better than shelling out $500 or whatever the hell an OEM header costs..
