Hi all, After having my r56 mcs for 5 months now I have ordered the stage 1 jcw kit from my local mini dealer. Can anyone shed any light on what exhaust this comes with? Is there only one jcw exhaust?

I'm a bit worried about what exhaust it will have as the two links below are different exhausts and not sure why have don't have John Cooper works engraved on the tips:-s

The JCW Tuning kit comes with the engraved exhaust. This kit is fitted to Cooper S models as a retrofit modification, make sure you insure it as such by the way...

The non engraved one is from the factory JCW model which is a model in it's own right ordered from new. However this can be ordered from Mini as a spare then fitted to the S or tuning kitted S should you want to, it's a tiny bit louder than the tuning kit version I think.
