Anyone got this fitted? Any comments as to performance, ease of fit, comparison with others?

ITSNS · Jun 25th, 2006, 01:10 PM

Recently fitted GTT230 "kit" plus header and Cat. Had the use of a friendly neighbourhood (ex) BMW garage, workshop and mechanic. Everythinf fitted easily and well. Hoist etc meant no grovelling around. Had to move or remove most of the bits and pieces between engine and bulkhead and had a bit of fiddling around to fit between heat shields and roll bar etc. However it is the first job I have done on a Mini where all knuckles had intact skin at the end!
Comparison to others - no idea. Compared to standard - noisier but not obtrusive. Cruises quietly at Vic speed limits - PLENTY available at the twitch of the foot, no need to bury the pedal although sometimes the effort of holding the foot up gets too much so I have to rest it.
So far very happy. Pity I couldn't have snuck it out onto the Phillip Island circuit with the excuse of getting lost on the way to the front gate. (Perfectly believable?!)

i was just about to say, have a chat with stephen, richard.

Good to see that you're loving the kit mate? Are either of you going to make it to this sunday's club run?

crikey, you seem to have the same taste in mods as me

....I'm looking at getting some headers and and oil catch can, and even in the same order

I'll probably get an OCC from a mate on M2 rather than the GTT one though, and maybe some headers from him as well...

See you sunday!
