I have the loudest Mini Cooper

I have just had fitted a Custom made Powerflow Single exit twin 3.5" stainless steel system to my cooper. It looks great and sounds so mean. But i am going back nxt week to have the noise reduced because on motorways it is too much!
It looks the nuts, they have used scorpion tail pipes and this have a lifetime garantee!!Well worth it!

Leave it on there for a bit and get down to Southern Mini Days on the 4th August, theres a 'Loudest Exhaust Competition' would be good to see a new MINI in it

The trouble is that i have to go to Norfolk nxt sat and the journey will be torture on the motorway!Did not intend for it to be that loud!I would love to enter that though i think i would stand a chance. This thursday i am going back to St Albans to try and sort it might have to have a different box put on. Great fun though!!

For about an hour I had the loudest Cooper! When we were dyno testing my car we dropped the exhaust from the cat. Wow, was that LOUD!!! However, as expected, it made less power than with the exhaust in place.
