Just the JCW cat back was put back on today mate! Left the Janspeed Mani & High Flow Cat on. Not driven the car yet so not exactly sure how much difference its made to the noise!
To be honest I wasn't happy with the fit of the Milltek anyway due to the rear bumper being different on my GP than a normal Cooper S.
Keep your eyes open for a Milltek Cat Back System & a Janspeed De-Cat Pipe in the classifieds sometime soon haha

Be minful. Bhozar has had a lot of issues with big back pressure off the JCW exhaust breaking joints and gaskets on his set-up. I think he even broke his manifold a few times too.

I have had issues with big back pressure too and have also noted lots of leaks that come and go, and broken and burned gaskets... also i defo broke my manifold!
