DIY Mini one - Cooper s exhaust conversion

Thanks in advance. JEGs

Loads of R56 Cooper S exhausts on ebay? Ok even if you were talking about the R56, it would not be too advantageous to put a Cooper S exhaust an a One or Cooper, as the exhaust tuning is wildly different between turbo and naturally aspirated engines.

If you're talking about the R53 like I'm guessing you are, the R53 exhaust will "work" on a R50, but don't bother as it weighs so much more and won't gain you any power with its massive back pressure and poor flow. The standard R50 Cooper cat-back is actually quite good, you'll only gain a couple HP going to a Borla or Helix cat-back.
