Hi im new to here,

I have a 2005 mini cooper 1.6 and i need a new exhaust my standard is nackered.

I want a milltek, i know that they are a good build etc, i want to know what they sound like, are the a nice sporty sound around town, and are they quiet enough so you can hear yourself think on a motorway

Hi I'm getting Milltek down pipe and cat back system fitted to my R56 this Wednesday so I can let you know.

I have a Miltek Exhaust on my R53 and love the sound of it. Not boy racer loud but tastefully sporty, good choice imo!

Have any CEL warnings been triggered by fitting the Milltek?

Running fine so far.. perhaps when you start playing with the manifold and cat you may get warnings..

I have a 2006 Cooper and I'm also thinking about changing. There are two variations - which one are you opting for?

Powerflow X is also an option...got one on my R50 but its quite loud even on the motorway, hence a speaker upgrade so I don't get a headache!

My exhaust is starting to blow a bit, so I think after 5 years of owning my MCS I can finally justify an exhaust upgrade

What's the best price for a Milltek system at the moment?
