Ok guys, I am giving you guys first refusal on the following parts, which will be up for grabs around May, maybe sooner! All of which are brand new, still boxed and never ever been fitted. (my word guaranteed)

1x Forge aluminium coolant expansion tank. This retails at £194.29 inc VAT from Forge! My price £150

The above^^^^^ will fit R55/R56/R57, all models EXCEPT Cooper D

1x forge front mount intercooler. This retails at £542.85 inc VAT from Forge! My price £490

The above^^^^^ will fit R55/R56/R57, Cooper S/JCW and Cooper D

1x complete (turbo back) Milltek exhaust system for the Clubman S. This retails at £1,240 inc VAT from stockist/suppliers! My price £1,100

I know it seems strange to offer these here, as I now have my own range of products! however before I release any of my products, each and everyone goes through thorough testing, this takes time!
so as these products are recognised by everybody in the mainstream, and I am not, yet! the above products will soon be surplus, this said, surplus does not mean I will be giving them away!

The Milltek system is tempting, especially as it has the cat

When i saw the forge items i was hoping for a bargain intercooler resonator delete pipe, oh well keep searching

Will the Milltek sound anything like this?

Definitely NOT, the Milltek will sound deeper than that, The Milltek retains pretty much the same audible sound as the stock system, however the BHP gain is around 25!

Will it pop and bang as much? I'm really after the Challenge exhaust sound

I'm stuggling to find a sound clip of the Milltek exhaust, this is the best I can find http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2CmOL6CmHUU I do however like the GP style wheels that have been painted all black, I was actually looking for a set of these to do that to before I found the TSW wheels I've currently got

Well if your after the popping/banging like what we hear on the German R56 Challenge Mini's, then you will be disappointed, the only way to get so much popping/banging is to reduce the amount of resonation silencing, this can be achieved by replacing the centre resonator/silencer with just a piece of exhaust tube, however all though it may sound cool when revving stationary, it will create more of a harmonic boom (drone) inside!

I think Milltek have a audible media file, I will have a look in the morning, if so I will grab it and post it hear.

Brettles-I have the Milltek cat back on mine-not the cats though. First impression was it was deep rumble, meaningful and powerful sound-the pops and bangs have dissapeared unless Ive been on a long fast run although I miss the pops etc the power difference is amazing its completely changed the car, more power and its smoother.
Oh and its looks great!
