My questions for Milltek were:

1) As indicated in their website, there are 3 options for the Milltek Exhaust System. I am not interested in a loud exhaust and am only interested in power gains, hence the Milltek Downpipe with Sports Cat. What power gains should i expect from just the single mod? And what is the AFR after the exhaust was installed?

2) How will i prevent the CEL light from coming up. Searches in the web have indicated from customers that the Milltek downpipe does infact bring up the CEL light. That means the allowable perimeters set by Mini has been exceeded. So what is causing it and how can it be rectified?

3) Will the Milltek Downpipe with sports cat mount to the R56's OEM extractors and exhaust system without modification?

Thank you Pete!

Even a custom downpipe without cat does not bring up CEL, Milltek should be ok since it has a cat.
My 2 friends and i got the custom downpipe and not a single CEL for months.

As far as the single tip, the tooling cost was too high versus the predicted sales volume for the piece. If you have questions about Milltek, just pop them to me since I'm the importer for North America. -Pete, Stratmosphere. 1.866.533.1777
so i take it as a no on the single pipe?
