New Exhaust

I recently purchased the OBX Racing exhaust for the Countryman for my Paceman. I wasn't sure it was going to fit but took the change since we are so similar. Fitment was not an issue. I didn't get a ton of pics and I will post a video and a review after several hundred miles.

Immediately I noticed a sound difference. Not too loud, a nice rumble on startup. There is no drone and even the wife approves since it's also a family car. I know it will get a little louder as the packing wears which I'm waiting for.

The exhaust was well built and the welds are quality. Fitment was perfect with no need for any adjustments or alterations.

Thanks for posting - I've always wondered how those items that are listed as a Countryman would fit on the Pacemans being that they are pretty similar...

It sounds good. It’s gotten slightly louder already. Im Actually going to have the resonator and second cat removed and I know that will really wake it up.

Looks like a nice kit, Curious on the sound of this!
i ended up just removing the furthest rear muffler on my PM, lots of pops in sport mode, however a bit of drone. How’s yours for drone ?
