well it depends on what kind of sound you want and how loud you want it

i suggest get test pipes and any a any decent exhuast will sound good and loud

let us kno if you need help with the install

MINI - UPDATE

So we got into the engine bay again yesterday and decided to finish getting the wiring harness out the way and give it a real good cleaning and scrubbing and more cleaning and pressure washing OH and alot more scrubbing...

This is what we started with from the other weekend.



After getting more of the wiring gathered up and out of there



and after a couple hours of cleaning and degreasing and pressure washing this is what we have.



Should be working on some paint and what not while we gather more parts for our engine and waiting on some parts like engine mounts etc.

Side note - the more i think about all the harness stuff we will have to deal with later the more scared i get. Someone hold me....
