I like the way the Milltek tucks under the car, unlike the JCW exhaust. I've been thinking of painting mine black.

The whole exhaust or just the tips?

The barrels of the JCW exhaust pop out a bit. The Barrels of the Milltek tuck. That's what I think there talking about.

JCW exhaust






Milltek R53

Exactly! I don't really like the low hanging fruit look with the JCW exhaust.

Randomly found this in a google search! John at Battle Tuning got another job, Manic Motorsport ceased trading last year LOL after sponsoring the Mini Challenge UK which they had no interaction in tuning the ECU as it was a Motorsport ECU which when we were the sponsor and scrutineer we were mapping the OEM ECU and got the championship to a very close level for the first time in years and my FIA scrutineer level meant I can spot any cheats. Maximum power in the race cars was not wanted just better and consistent with better throttle control but not engine destroying power when the cars are spending 20 minutes racing 30cm's behind cars at a time with limited cooling for several laps. I stopped scruntineering as Iit started clashing with me racing in the VW Cup which caused a very hectic weekend!
