Survey: MCS Exhaust Types

I'm the guy that has taken over the Exhaust Guide thread started back in 2004, which is now a sticky on the 1st Gen | Modifications | Drivetrain (Cooper S) thread (This thread: https://www.northamericanmotoring.com...ad.php?t=23789)

I want to determine how to improve the Exhaust Guide. To do that, it just makes sense to me to find out the most popular exhausts out there for the MCS. (By popular, I mean the ones that are installed by the most people).

If certain manufacturers exhausts are being used way more than others, we should spend more time on those, and less on the others.

So, please take this one question survey, at SurveyMonkey.com:
http://www.surveymonkey.com/s.aspx?s...ZMWa1x5w_3d_3d

It asks you to pick which custom exhaust you have on your MCS - that's it, once click.

I will keep bumping this, and will put it in the general discussion listing to try and get as much info as possible. Please excuse the cross postings.

Please post a reply when you fill out the survey to keep this bubbling up to the top. So far, 10 surveys done in less than 14 hours.

But - the Pre 2007 folks have filled out 43 surveys. Come on guys, don't let them beat you!

I have a request for you....can you do one for the non S coopers? I know it's not much of a performance upgrade for a non turbo car, but I'd like a tad more noise back there. (i'm not a ricer, it's an english car, the proper term is fish&chipper :p )

If you will help me, I sure will.

Survey first, then a writeup on the 5-8 most popular? I'll do survey, split the writeups with you?

Glad to see Quicksilver on there, though I would imagine it's not so high on the popularity list.

Bumpomatic.

So, if we already voted, should we do it again?

No, the first one filled up at 100 responses. SurveyMonkey's free surveys only let you have 100. I just made a second survey and will compile all the results once we are done.

Take the survey. Takes all of 20 seconds. 1 click and done. Bug your friends to do the same.

Also, could just be my computer, but the link you provided in your first post to take the survey works without a problem. However the one right above this post does not.
