MINI2

devilsushi2000 · Jul 14th, 2004, 11:43 AM

The time has come for my next mod, one that I have been debating for a while now.
The question is which exhaust for my mini cooper (non S)
I want a nice loud exhaust but one that looks aesthically nice too!
Cheers
Dale

Get the Janspeed Cat Back.

I have this exhaust. it looks the bizz and sounds the biz. Both sounds and looks, look better than the play mini.

People only say play mini as it is a well known exhaust for the new mini but trust me. I have the Janspeed and my mate has the PLay Mini. He admits mine looks and sounds better.

Hoe that helps

How much is the Janspeed if you don't mind me asking and secondly how loud is it?

Borla cat back with a Pipercross Viper CAI, it get you MINI sounding very nice. Here a couple of links to an exhaust shoot out that was held in April of this year. http://www.northamericanmotoring.com...8&page=3&pp=25 reply/post #65 and then reply/post #70 has the audio clips in mp3 format. Only two exhausts for Coopers, lots of S stuff.

I have a REMUS exhaust on my MINI Cooper.

Sounds great, not too boomy.

Playmini. Cus there ace

robfenn · Jul 15th, 2004, 11:31 AM

I am looking at the Quicksilver exhaust. They have dyno tests of 6-8bhp for the cat back exhaust. They have a very good reputation and the thing i like is that it's not much louder, but creates a richer note (don't think the boyracer theme suits the mini).

They also do a downpipe and sports cat. Combined dyno figure of 18-20bhp! Altogether thats around £700 though.

How do dealers respond to people having non-JCW exhausts?

Does anyone know what the difference in sound is like between the magnex and the playmini?

RedUn · Jul 15th, 2004, 12:31 PM

if I remember correctly the magnex is a deeper souund but not as loud as the poppy playmini

devilsushi2000 · Jul 15th, 2004, 12:53 PM

So the playmini is louder, thats interesting!

RedUn · Jul 15th, 2004, 01:20 PM

yup i'd say so my self

they both sound nice tho!!

devilsushi2000 · Jul 15th, 2004, 01:26 PM

How loud is the playmini? I have heard Tony*T3's on his cooper S, a lovely popping sound, does the cooper sound similar?

RedUn · Jul 15th, 2004, 01:32 PM

I have just the thing for you if I can find it

wait there

devilsushi2000 · Jul 15th, 2004, 01:37 PM

RedUn · Jul 15th, 2004, 01:47 PM
