Sounds awesome!
Hopefully someone will squeeze a 4-2-1 in there at some stage to see if it gains any power.

here's my suggested fix... i ran this on my Turboed R56 MINI Cooper S with catless exhaust.. it worked perfectly, no CELs in 600000 miles http://www.bigdaddiesgarage.com/mini-cat-cel-fix.html

That's a nifty bit of kit. I'm going to try a right angle spacer because there isn't space for a straight one.

So far so good for getting rid of the CEL that was appearing.
Today I drove an hour our to the race track and did many laps, some drifting and a couple of drag races and then drove home. All without a CEL.


I'll report back if I ever get another cat related CEL.

Big Favour????
Motive Concepts in California have made an overpipe that I would like to get but they don't know if it will fit the RHD version?
I wondered if you have any pics of that location so they could see if they think it might fit? I put the link to their reply to me below in case you can help out or post here and I'll put them there?
Even easier would be if you could make one for us to buy?
I've got the downpipe with high flow cat from Nameless with their catback but their overpipe wont fit the RHD.

With the extractors, why didn't you copy the OEM design of 4-2-1. Was it just too tight to make a better version?

If you want a RHD overpipe I can get one made for you. I could also do a group buy if there was interest. I'll PM you about it.

There wasn't enough room to make a 4-2-1 system and get the optimal lengths.

See post #2. Don't forget this is in AUD and doesn't include shipping.

I would certainly be interested in getting one. It all depends on the price including shipping, so a group buy sounds good.
If anyone has seen a pic of the overpipe they would want to replace it. It really is a disgusting item in an otherwise well engineered exhaust system, for OEM anyway.
2.5" with OEM fittings would be my choice.

Hopefully more exhaust work will get done this week. I'll have an 2.5" overpipe made and priced.

The only concern I have is that it's close to the steering box. Heat could be an issue so wrapping or coating may be needed.

So the RHD steering box is the offending item that stops the LHD item being fitted. The OEM must be close too, is that shielded?
Thanks for looking at it.
