F56 Borla touring muffler

Has any one out there installed a Borla Touring muffler on a F56 or 2.0 liter MINI? I'm wondering if it is intrusive at freeway speeds? I'd like more sound around the street but still enjoy the radio on trips.

I know this is a zombie thread, but the OP never got an answer and I gotta plug this exhaust, I took a chance on it because there were no videos anywhere online. I installed the Borla Touring exhaust (11914) on my 15 MCS and I can't recommend it enough.

...I hated the dead quiet of the stock exhuast, and was worried the S-type above would be too loud, but the Borla Touring adds the perfect amount of sound. Some noise on cold start at 1100rpm, then quiets right down at warm idle below 1000rpm. Quiet at steady-state cruising on the highway, but really opens up anytime you step on it. Lots of crackling and popping in sport mode. Even sometimes in normal mode. In short, the perfect exhaust for someone who doesn't want the obnoxious loud fart-can all the time (and you're over 30 like me), but wants to actually add a little sporty fun to their ride.
