Exhaust...want my JCW to be a bit louder
Morning all
Looking at various exhaust options for a little more volume.
I've had a fantastic offer on a Pro Exhaust but I'm just seeing what other options I've got.
Pro exhaust is coming in at 1800$ fitted.
I like the idea of having the ability to control the volume through the value...
Also does anyone know what sport mode does to the exhaust? Anything at all? Or just software mapping to add a little extra fuel for the pops?
Thanks!

The JCW in track mode is just a straight pipe. I believe the Remus is also. I have friend with an independent shop who is a certified BMW/Mini tech who sold the exhaust only for a very good price to a NAM member. He kept the tune and sold it to someone with an MCS. I have HAD my JCW exhaust fly unplugged (OPEN ALL THE TIME) for the last year, but now that I'm installing the Milltek Catless DP I'll be hooking it back up.

Catless DP was another thing I was considering, but the labour involved is putting me off, as inevitable at some point in the future I would be putting it back on - possibly for annual MOTs etc, which would instantly prevent me from doing it.
I believe my local Mini specialst quote 4 hours fitting time!
Also not heard / seen many people with these (yet) and IMO the OEM BMW downpipe looks to be pretty good.
UK only has 1 cat too, I belive the US has 2 cats

I am considering adding a 3 inch pipe from the downpipe back, into a Varex Muffler with a valve built in (after I install a 3 inch catless DP):

It does if you are on an interstate and cruising in eco mode, or least ours does. Another excellent reason to stay off them, the interstate highways, that is. The only reason we ever use them is to avoid traffic issues in the larger cities we pass through on our route to or from somewhere that has good twisties! However, it is the most fuel efficient setting if you stay below 60 mph, which is impossible in a JCW! It turns the drive into a boring, droning, no fun
experience. My cartographer, aka, my wife uses the ipad, paper maps, and we generally take backroads for the majority of our trips! I am surely a lucky guy!
