I will keep my eyes ears out for you on the island lol!

Here's mine with a gruppe m. Not to everyone's taste but I love it and wanted some more noise at low revs.

Nice warble smile That's pretty much what I'd like my car to sound like, but it's not quite there yet:

First mini for me is one of the best sounds on this thread....
That is basically my dream engine for mine you have in that thing but the 5/6k + costs of building one are out of my reach at the moment but the high revving 16v a series combined with the straight cut gears is just like heaven to me smile
I am very very jelous….

. . . and you may laugh.

End of 3rd gear (app. 16 secs) is 85 and then the bigger cars start passing. The fun is: 1st is short!

My R56 MINI Cooper S with a dealer fit JCW Stage 1 engine kit biggrin

AND

It's running an exhaust from the Factory JCW, which is louder on a non-Factory JCW car because of a difference in the two cars engine compressions.

Sounds good for a 4 pot, and that's some brilliant editing you've done thumbup would love to get out and do a video like that.
Cheers, did it all in 1 bored night in. I agree it didn't sound bad for a 4-pot, but it was a little bit anti-social for everyday use.

Could I have an honest opinion on what you guys think this sounds like? I'm not fussed if you think it's awful, as yes it's my car, but I didn't spec the exhaust - it just came like that and I haven't got round to doing anything about it yet.

Typical MR2: nice and sharp!

I hate it when a fourpot sounds to dark.
