Video of a R56 Mini Cooper S with a stock exhaust and no resonator (paradoxical statement? probably). Enjoy.

hey man nice sound, did any problems develop after taking the resonator off? I got an R53 stock exhaust and I wanna make it more of a deep growl and heard taking the resonator off would help with that... any advice or help from a Cooper friend will be greatly appreciated.

@thatbostonianguy Nope. No problems. The resonator is basically a second muffler. For an R53, it's more common to do a "One Ball" mod. Simply remove a muffler (and one ball/muffler is left)!

Honestly, I haven't heard a BMW that sounds bad. Removing a muffler and the resonator will probably get you the sound you're looking for, but I'd do one at a time.

what intake are you running on your MINI? I have a DoS and the sound is similar!

[moxiemini]

@StigetteR56 It's an Alta. But I'm pretty sure I'm gonna ditch it for an NM or a DDM Street.

sounds nice..... if you do get a aftermarket just stay away from RISS......

[moxiemini]

@timmoore8462 Honestly, I'm leaning toward a Stratmosphere.

Does your car have a BOV with a stock turbo ?

[StigetteR56]

@moxiemini ohh i see I see. well if you want to check out defenders of speed, I am really happy with my intake! I have videos posted on my channel of the sound if you're interested. Happy modding! :)
