suggestions for catback and intake
fellas - i have an 03 non S cooper. had it since new. want modest gains.
considering catback and intake. not so interested in changing the ECU, but open to that as well. any suggestions for catback and intake? I do not want a very loud system; for example the exhaust tone of the inifniti G35 is pretty nice. thanks! |
The factory JCW exhaust is a nice gain and not loud
Same goes for intake The overdrive pulley will be a better increase |

what do you think of this "stage 1"
and do you have an idea of how much hp gain this would be , like 10-20hp? http://new.minimania.com/web/Item/NM...0MINI%20COOPER |
Sorry I missed NON S read it as S
This looks like the exhaust , Intakes are cheap http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...r_exhaust.html FAR cheaper exhaust http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...r_exhaust.html http://www.outmotoring.com/mini-coop...ke_system.html |
I have a 2003 non S, I put an OBX-Racing catback system on mine last year and I love it! Sounds great, not too loud.

JonD91 what intake do you have on it?
In regards to emissions, it sounds like although this is a 'racing' catback system it is street legal and should not alter emissions testing. the car will be driven in Massachusetts. thanks. |
I have an aluminum short ram intake, no brand eBay thing since it was only $40. Don't worry about the street legal as far as Racing goes, that's just the company name. It just increases the pipes to 2.5" behind the cat and deletes the resignater for a better sound. My car is a daily driver in Maine so you shouldn't have any legal issues, I haven't yet and I go to Mass a few times a year.
BTW the OBX-R system was about $165 shipped, eBay intake was $40 shipped, so it was ~$200 for both, way cheaper that getting the big name pipes that do the same job |

I have an aluminum intake ram short, make no eBay, because it was only $ 40. Do not worry about legal street racing is about, is just the name of the company. It not only increases the pipe 2.5 "cat back and removed to give a better sound. My car is a daily driver in Maine so you should not have legal problems, I have to go to church several times a year.
