Agency Power Full titanium Exhaust review, pics, and video

I have had this exhaust for about a month now. I know it is not very popular yet, so I thought I post a review, links, info, pics, and some video so everyone can check it out and discuss. Vivid Racing out of Gilbert Arizona, owns Agency Power and needed a Cooper to test fit their exhaust, they put the word out on Instagram and lucky me I had a mechanically stock Cooper S. This was exactly what they were looking for, so they used my car for data and media. And I scored a free exhaust. Here is the details:

-Full Titanium
-$1600 made to order (3-4 week build time)
-2.5" piping throughout
-with 3.5" Burnt tips
-It is downpipe back
-weighed in at 16.6lbs for the full unit.

I love it. I do not have much experience with sounds in person of other MINI exhausts so please keep that in mind. In sport mode this pops and burbles all day long, pops can get loud after long drives. Its very mellow sounding unless you want it to get loud while stomping down. When NOT in sport mode its a nice low noise. I love how different the two modes sound.

The unit:

Pretty slick video they put together. I like the sound a lot, too. Seems throatier than most that I've heard. Are they building their own muffler? My VIP (on a straight Cooper) is a Magna Flow muffler and they just spec'd and welded the pipe to it. I love the sound, but I think other exhaust outfits do the same thing and use Magna Flow.

Also, good score on the free exhaust!

Thanks! Its not a Magna Flow. They make exhaust kits for tons of vehicles. Mainly Subaru, Evo's, Porsche, BMW, and Audi's though. They don't have the best websites (Agency Power or Vivid Racing) but they are working on that with some new hires, and I have been to the shop and it is very clean and impressive. And I love the videos as well, I have watched them a bunch hahaha
