Possible Exhaust Modifications?
First time poster here:
Quick background of myself. My name is Enzo and i'm 16 years old. Got my license in October of 2018 and had enough money saved up for a 2010 Cooper S (R56) Now before you think I want to be another obnoxious new driver with a loud exhaust and poor driving habits, I don't want my car to sound too loud at all, just a little bit nicer. I asked my Auto Shop teacher at school what I should do for that and he recommended I find a popular Mini Cooper forum online and ask so here I am. The only issue for me is the cost, my Auto teacher would install it with me for free but I have to pay for the part in its whole. I have a job but by the time I pay insurance and gas and car payment I usually only have some money left so I'd have to save for a while. Thanks, Enzo https://cimg2.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.nor...4b8aec4843.jpg |
Lots of people do this http://reviews.carreview.com/mini-co...xhaust-upgrade . I haven't but then again I'm old and not interested in calling attention to myself as I zip down the road.

Thank you very much! This sounds perfect.

Never could figure out why BMW designed an exhaust system with two mufflers in sequence. +1 on the one-ball mod. Did it to my MC40 and it has a bit sportier sound without being loud at all (plus it's cheap to do). Enjoy!

For R56, if you want just a little bit more noise, you can have the second cat and resonator removed and replaced with a straight pipe into the factory rear muffler. This is a popular mod with second generation Mini. |
Look into the CNT Racing exhaust. I bought one from the company directly and the cost was $370 shipped. It deletes the secondary cat as well.
