After 35 years of ownership I finally coughed up and paid someone to make me a stainless exhaust system. Hopefully no more gun gum required for a while !
I found the previous installation (home brewed system using Mini Cooper s box) sounded great but got on my wick after a few miles. I requested that Custom Chrome Of Nuneaton design me a system that gave a similar note but less volume. I think they have succeeded admirably, with a box smaller than before ..looks great too.
It's left me with a slight problem, since fitting I am getting a partial misfire under load. Seems to dissapear when warm.
Obviously I need to do a bit of tuning, but wondered if anyone had experienced anything similar ?
Pics of the new system below, I'm impressed how they've managed to keep the box unobtrusive under the skinny running boards of the mk1.
