Mini Spares genuine
RC40 system has justifiably earned the reputation of the best exhaust ever made for the Mini. Typically used with an LCB manifold it gives great performance with a mellow sound. 1.75" OD pipe, resonator & silencer ("two-box" system). Side exit. For mounting see
RC40FK.
Note, when fitted in conjunction with an LCB header,
C-AEG365 you will require
RC40-002 short pipe or alternatively cut the front kink off the
RC40-001 pipe(from 5"-8") that is made for the freeflow manifold
C-STR816. When properly installed, the system will fit up nicely into the tunnel and will not drag over bumps. A link pipe
LDP1 is available to fit this larger bore twin box with downpipe
RC40-002when fitting to original exhaust manifolds on 998cc etc without using a freeflow or LCB type exhaust manifold.
These have been fitted to Van/Estate with either a Freeflow or LCB manifold using the
AN180V downpipe and cutting to gain the extra 3" required in length and then fitting a long tailpipe trim
RC40-005 to the rear silencer box. You must match the system up before cutting the downpipe.
As an alterrnative Minispares manufacture an an extended downpipe
RC40-004to use with single
RC40 silencer
C-STR809 and a tailpipe extension
RC40-005 for both applications.
