My Channel and Mod Updates

hey guys. Im trying to get more into my youtube channel with Mini content and also other car related content. Just finished up my custom exhaust yesterday after some trial and error. Thankfully I know some good guys who can weld better than I. Also keeps the cost almost free lol. Here is a link to my recent video of my R55's exhaust from straight pipe to adding in a resonator/muffler. If you can please subscribe and leave a comment/like. Thanks!

You need to fix the link. It is a link for U and U only.
Just b/c it works for you does not mean it is ready for mass consumption by others.

As someone who went from an eBay exhaust to straight pipe, to resonator and now with a MillTek Non-resonated exhaust I agree... A little muffler sounds much, much better.

I like the overall sound.

This didn't show up on the video because my Mac book was being a PITA on imovie yesterday, so it wouldn't upload at 60fps.

Our Gen1 cars don't have all the bells and whistles you have. Where you have blue tooth, we have a dixie cup and a string.

Will leave this up for now, us old folks like to look at all the fancy gauges you have.
