Here's what my R60 sounds like with muffler delete

Some people were curious as to how my countryman s sounds with the muffler delete and Y piping. It gives a nice deeper tone which is what I was aiming for and in sport mode it pops a little when downshifting. Soon I will get a downpipe and ecu tune.

The video is unedited, literally taken straight from my GoPro. I stop at one point in a parking lot for a couple minutes to take a few pictures so you might want to skip ahead a little.

I attached some pics of the car too. Recently put on the new LEAP spoiler, got the front spoiler attached, blacked out emblems, put on the side stripes yesterday. The link to the video is when I just turned on the car so it doesn't start popping until around 5 mins in. I live in southern California and where I was driving there was a lot of hills and stop signs, so sorry for the continued stops. I also didn't have the housing guard around the GoPro which is the reason for the loud wind at high speeds.

I have two videos. The one here doesn't have as much pops whereas the second does. I might add the second later which is when I drive back down the hill.

That sounds very nice. I was expecting it to be obnoxious. Do you still have the resonator in place?

Yep the res is still there. Just took the muffler out and some new tips on. I am thinking heavily about getting a catless downpipe though. Only issue is i live in California...emissions
