Here is a good idea of what the Magnaflow sounds like on the track:

More, we (well I) want more. Thank goodness, it doesn't make 18 H.P. at the wheels or I would have to live up to my promise of buying one for a give away here, I can now spend that money on other mods for my own car (Insert evil laugh). Time to call Randy.

ficcion,

Thanks big time for the effort. I know myself and many other MCS owners are trying to make intelligent decisions regarding upgrades and without help there would be many mistakes made and money poorly spent. That said, how much do you feel your Rota/Falken combo helps performance? Not just on the track but in daily driving (verses 17"run flats/S lites) I noticed RandyBMC is using the 17"run flats/S lites on the track video.

Thanks in advance,
Bluesmaster

Thanks for all the great film, Kelly! You do a very nice job putting it all together. Maybe we can do a MINI-Motorsport commercial for SPEED Channel hmmm...

You guys should have seen him out there trying to hang on and film at the same time, all without using the motion sickness bag And he did it for you guys! I'm hoping that onboard makes itself available soon. If any of you out there have access to a place to host all of this for free, let one of us know.

Seriously, thanks. I think you can get a lot more from video than just a sound clip or picture, and it really gives perspective for those that don't have a chance to see the stuff in person (or get to the track themselves).

Randy

Sounds Great!

Thank You, Thank You, Thank You

My wife told me I have to wait until my birthday (June) before I can order the Magnaflow. I just hate wishing my life away

Awesome. The supercharger whine is impressive, too. I've always wondered how noticeable the supercharger was from outside the car. Very coo!
