Depends on budget, you cant go past a JCW item!!
My parts guys said he'd do it installed for $2100...

Bear in mind this has a ful BMW warranty, plus all the resale benefits.

This is the option I will be taking after I get sorted a bit better financially...

Jasemini has a HiTech exhaust... he likes that, wait for him to post about the cost involved with that... Plus I'm sure there are many more...

Note that we only gots a MC. We are looking at putting a K&N filter (cold air if I can source the part) and new exhaust. Looking for better throttle response as hill starts are killing my clutch

I have a Remus on my MC that I am looking to sell. You can hear the sound file on motoringfile.com. Also, tail pipe image in my gallery.

See what the Cooper exhaust will cost you from BMW, if interested - Then check out K&N online...

Not sure of the web address off the top of my head... try: www.kandn.com

they have all the parts numbers for you to find out which one you need, then go into you local Autobarn or where ever and order the bits you need...

some time ago, Centrax Auto at Kessels Rd. MacGregor had supersprint exhausts for the Mini's. Not sure if it was for MC or MCS. They still might have some..

MINI No. 1 - 2005 Pepper White Cooper Chilli - Jun 05 - Nov 07. MINI No. 2 - 2005 Pepper White Cooper S Chilli - Oct 07 - Apr 09. MINI No. 3 - 2008 Lightning Blue Cooper Chilli - Great to be MINI again .

Ask Ken Henry or Swamos about Chapmans at The Gabba, the are doing some stuff for the MINI I think? I spoke to the guys in Melbourne that do the AMD One Click and they suggested I contact Simon at Chapmans about anything for the MINI. Could be worth a go? On the Gold Coast try Doug Stewart at Apex Active Motorsport, he did my HiTech but I don't know about Coopers, he's pretty good he may have a product for the Cooper and he'll give you a decent discount when you mention clubMINI. PM me of you need the number. Coopers sound awesome with a nice exhaust. There was a young guy on a Brisbane BMW run (where Ken won the weekend at Somerset) who had a red Cooper with a Union Jack on the roof and a sweet exhaust but I can't remember his name, James someone I think, very shy fellow with a honky exhaust to make up for that Swamos may remember his name?

02 MCS gone after 2 years of fun and new friends, and 10 visits to the service dept at Brisbane BMW.
You don't know the meaning of practical until you've owned a Camry! (seriously it's not a bad car though )

I sent Andrew the link to QSZ, so it sounds like they have got a distributorship going there. Try looking for Chapman and Chapman in the phone book.

The gent with the horny exhaust (groan) was indeed James. He moved to Sydney late last year. He may be a MINIclubs member?? You may be able to track him that way?
