Did Jan teach you how to shift

Nice video Sid, how many times did it take for you to park the Mini like that
If you done that in one shot you're inthe wrong job.

Has the flowmaster made a big difference?

you crack me up - second vid - back and forth, back and forth . A great videio artist would have centered the camera on the road and driven over the camera .

Actually, I liked your exhaust system better before lets see it was after the miltech header but before the magnaflow without the resonator but after the RMW header prior to the miltech catback but then you added a resonator some where along the line ..... never mind this sounds good too

I hope you bought a lottery ticket the same day you shot that video.

I suppose you only have the Rotary left to get now.
