JCW exhaust

The backbox on my 2001/51 Cooper is rotten so the search is on for a replacement. My plan is to treat myself and minbin to a stainless cat back system by either Playmini or Milltek, however i have found this on ebay
BMW mini cooper exhaust on eBay, also, Mini, Car Parts, Cars, Parts Vehicles (end time 28-Nov-07 17:26:29 GMT)

It says its part of the JCW upgrade kit but i cant find any info on the part number on real oem site so can any of you guys help please.
I know its not stainless but will it give me any performance gains or produce a sportier noise than my standard exhaust and is it a viable option?
Any thoughts would be great, many thanks.

Honestly, it doesn't look like the JCW exhaust I know, and I haven't been able to find it on realoem too...so I don't really know if it's a sportier exhaust than the one you already have. I'd go with the Milltek...

From RealOEM the Part Number for the Cooper Sound Kit exhaust is 18100399689

The part number for the (now discontinued) JCW Tuning Kit Exhaust for the Cooper is 18100141760

RealOEM.COM * Part Category Selection

The shape of the back-box in the pictures on eBay look like the Original Tuning Kit Exhaust not the Sound kit one.

Done more searching and still cant find the part no on the pictures so may give the stealers a call and see if they can shed any light.
I am just a bit wary as its not stainless and it doesn't have the JCW engraved tailpipe so really not that special, unless it goes for a bargain!
