2nd week; more mods; NM Exhaust
Very impressed when I opened the box from Out Motoring.
The NM Exhaust was very well packed and the part was very shiny.
EZ install, took garage 20 mins total
Big tips too.
Best thing, SOUNDS GREAT!

Looks great.. I so need to get me a cat back to give the car some bark. I might just do a mid-pipe swap (cat and res delete) to get me by..
Cheers

Dont know how to post.
The NM sounds a little louder, not annoying at all.
Backpressure when decelerating burbles and sounds great too.

Are you getting the burble in non-sport mode or just sport mode? Any drone?

The polished finish looks pretty sick over the black! Load the clip up on YouTube then link it here.

Looks great. Why in the world did Mini put such tiny tips in such a large opening to begin with? This is the way it should look from the factory.

Cant post but the best sounds arent when its idling or faster revs,
but on de-celeration.
Its personal for sure, but these sound great.

Thanks for sharing the images and info. The nm website indicates a 12-15 hp gain...are you feeling/seeing that?

Damn, $1000? For that I'd almost rather get the JCW exhaust so thre are no warranty problems. But it does look sweet.
