Description: The F60 MINI Countryman S may be a utilitarian vehicle designed to accomplish a variety of tasks but it still embodies the pep and nimbleness most commonly associated with the brand. This sporty underpinning coupled with its diverse abilities make it a popular seller, rivaling even the flagship Cooper S. Unfortunately, the Countryman is often ignored by the aftermarket despite this popularity and a marketplace that is starving for quality performance parts that the diminutive F56 hatchback enjoys. Enter Dinan, and an exhaust solution that will make any Cooper S driver envious.

The Dinan F60 exhaust system offers a dramatically improved exhaust note, along with additional capabilities above and beyond the stock muffler, that set the system apart from the factory... and the competition. In order to achieve desired sound volume and tone the tubing is first enlarged to 70mm (vs 65mm stock) to allow freer flow throughout the entirety of the system. The larger tubing is fed into a muffler that is typical of all Dinan exhaust design and utilizes absorption technologies designed to improve exhaust flow and reduce back pressure. The combination results in increased power output and a great sporty sound complete with the signature MINI exhaust pops. Unlike the factory system that relies solely on driving modes and the muffler itself to control audible content, the Dinan system incorporates an electronic valve into its design, complete with a user controlled key fob. Now, you can dictate when you want to be civilized and close the valves for a subdued/tasteful ride, or when to open the valve and allow the system to achieve full glory unimpeded by restriction right from the cabin with a press of a button. Even with the valve open, thereby making the system a straight pipe system, the Countryman S free flow exhaust is engineered to reduce low-RPM drone so the cabin of the vehicle is still intimate and not drowned in an excessively loud tone. With the Dinan exhaust equipped on the F60 you get a system that allows both the 'utilitarian' and the 'sport' to be achieved in one solution -- all controlled by you.

While sound is the primary reason for any exhaust purchase the styling and craftsmanship also play an important role for the discerning buyer. The Dinan F60 Countryman S exhaust has been skillfully crafted entirely out of T304 stainless steel and TIG welded for the best visual appearance and color. The entire system is then brush-finished to further guarantee an immaculate looking system out of the box. The attention to detail is not limited to parts of the system you can't see once the exhaust is installed but is also extended to the exhaust tips themselves. The Dinan exhaust sports enormous, dual 4" (102mm) clamp-on, double-walled, black ceramic coated or polished and laser engraved exhaust tips. Dinan has retained its signature straight cut tip design, safeguarding its unique and elegant styling position, amongst a marketplace dominated by angle cuts. The tips masterfully fill up and accentuate upon the factory cut-outs showcasing an extremely aggressive, yet refined, styling that will turn heads even before it is heard.

ALL4 and JCW Compatibility: D660-0083/-BLK does NOT fit the ALL4 or JCW variants of the Countryman/Clubman line. However, we do have a potential solution in hand to make this setup compatible with a small change. If you want a free exhaust, are local to Auburn, AL / Atlanta, GA and have one of these vehicles please contact us at developmentcars@dinancars.com so we schedule you in and verify fitment.

 

Thanks for making this!

So, does all the exhaust go out the passenger side, unless you activate the valve, at which point the exhaust goes (mostly) out the driver's side (plus, whatever might passively go out the passenger side...assuming there is no venturi-type affect that would actually suck some passenger-side gases out the driver's side).

Thanks again!

 

Correct. When valve is closed all gases pass through the muffler and exit the passenger side tip. When the valve is open its essentially a straight pipe exhaust with the vast majority of the gasses going out the driver side tip.

 

Thanks for the quick answer! Has anyone put the Carbon fiber intake you make on with this exhaust, yet?

 

Only one for sure would be the green development Countryman S that is in the photos.

 

May I ask what drives the valve? Electric power from a specific wire, direct from the battery with an inline fuse, or an unused access from a fuse box? Thanks again! (perhaps I should have looked at an installation instruction video/explanation...if you have that on your site, I'll get this information from there...don't mean to be a pest!)

Additional info...YEP, it was covered in the instructions on your site. No need to bother with an answer, it's all right there to see. Thanks!

 

Hey Dinan team,
Check your email, daughter's F54 S All4 manual is available next week to confirm fitment, thanks.

 

Got it. I'll pass along to engineering. TY.

 

Replying back to this thread. The team at Dinan confirmed their All4 solution for the F54 works on my daughter's car in March. It fits and sounds amazing in sport with the Dinan valve open. I went though 6 exhaust set ups on my R56. IMO Dinan nailed it first try.

 

Just to verify did we get confirmation that this system works on the Countryman All4?

 

Currently released system (D660-0083 (-BLK)) is not compatible with the ALL4 variants. There are some SKU's in the pipeline that will be compatible however as noted above. Exhaust production/supply chain has had a rough go the last year or so so its taking a bit longer then normal. =/

 

I will keep an eye out for when these become available. If you need a tester I am will to make the drive to your Atlanta location.

 

Has anyone else done an install with this? I know it would be a bit more than a month to get one since they’re made to order right now. Not sure if any vendors would have any in stock.

 

F60 Countryman S ALL4 / F54 Clubman S ALL4 exhaust systems are now released and available to go along with their FWD counterparts. Everything mentioned in the original post applies to the ALL4 with the primary change being in the inlet pipe that differs between the 2 systems.
