Exhaust manifold same on 1st & 2nd Gens?
I am looking to replace my exhaust system on my 2011, found a Walker manifold and a street header for a 1st gen. Can I install this street header w/ cat delete( has sensor holes).

The engines on the two gens are completely different. If you have an S, you are turbo charged while the Gen1 is supercharged. Manifolds are nothing similar.

If you go to Realoem.com you can pull up the parts diagrams for any year and model MINI.

The Gen1 exhaust manifold looks nothing like the Gen2.
