Hello to everyone. I introduced myself in the 1st gear section and now I have a question. This is my first Mini. It is a 2017 JCW with the following mods already done to the car by the dealer before I bought it. It has NM lowering springs, NM short shifter, NM Wheels, NM intake, and Dinantronics chip. Now I want to get an exhaust but I can't decide which one. Please offer your experienced suggestions of what brand will give the best sound and performance considering the mods that the car has. Please offer your recommendations and why if you don't mind. I have been researching and I just can't come to a final decision. Thanks in advance.

 

if the Dinan exhaust works on your JCW (not sure) I would go with that one.

 

AWE Tuning.

 

Done several exh on the F56 cars already and out of them all I like the Remus the best for fit, value, finish, and sound. Plus the carbon tips are awesome.

Also adjustable like the JCW so you can be loud or quiet.

 

This fella is on to something

We have freshly-built systems on the shelf and ready to ship. Hit me if you have any questions

 

I'm thinking of getting a Touring edition.
But the website says "Track Use Only" at the very bottom of the product description.
I want to know what it "really" means to the end users?
Would I not pass my state required bi-annual smog test or get pulled over by cop for too loud exhaust noise if I install on my daily commute F56S?

 

That is listed as such due to the exhaust omitting the secondary, unmonitored catalyst found within the factory exhaust. That is all.

 

AWE without a doubt. Save the difference for some other goodies. I've had the AWE on for 6 months makes power sounds and looks great. Installation was a breeze.

 

Thanks everyone for your input. I have placed an order with OutMotoring for the AWE Touring with black tips. I just installed the NM Tower Strut bar. I have other things coming. I really appreciate everyone's help.

 

Nice move. You're going to love it, I'm sure.

 

AWE Touring here. Not quite loud enough for me, though it does sound good. But my wife drives the car often too, and she thinks its perfect.

 

My OEM exhaust loud enough to turn heads under WOT. People look at me with disgust.

 

Trade for a Prius. I'm sure they'll smile and wave then.

 

Really??? OEM is pretty tame ... even JCW!

 

its pretty loud when WOT in sport mode
