Glad to hear you got a bucket load of mods from Helix13. You're in good company with lots of other satisfied MINI owners.
Too bad I'd have to cross an ocean to make it to Eric or I'd be there much too often. Did he put your stock exhaust next to the other 20+ MCS exhausts stacked up in his shop? Did you try the Philly sandwich next door?

you would be correct... my exhaust hangs proudly, with only 3500 miles on it - in eric's garage. next i plan to have my rear sway bar with only 5000 miles - hang proudly in eric's garage.... will keep you posted.

Same as mine and I agree with you 100%. Absolutely love the sound of this combination.
As for Eric, I have been buying almost everything from Helix13 largely due to Eric. When I call with some stupid question he always takes the time to help me better understand whatever it is I'm wondering about.
On more than one occasion he could have made more money/sold more stuff by offering advice other than what he offered. That alone speaks volumes.
I've never had the pleasure of meeting him in person and I don't mean this to derate any of the other MINI tuners in any way. I just ended up dealing with Eric shortly after buying my MINI and am very satisfied with Helix13.
Cheers!
