Exhaust Mini Countryman R60 (2010-2017)

The MINI Countryman R60 (2010-2016) is compatible with a variety of aftermarket stainless steel sport exhaust systems, designed specifically to enhance performance, sound, and aesthetics. The main types include:

• Rear silencers or mufflers (single or duplex)
• Intermediate silencers for improved flow
• Complete cat-back systems, replacing tubing after catalytic converters
• Direct bolt-on replacements that fit in place of original silencers

These exhausts are constructed mainly from premium stainless steel 304L for durability and corrosion resistance, often with polished or chromed large diameter tailpipes (60 to 90 mm) for an aggressive look.

Sport exhaust systems are available for most R60 versions:

• Diesel: 1.6 Cooper D (82 kW)
• Petrol: Cooper S (120-135 kW), including ALL4 models
• John Cooper Works (JCW) ALL4 (218 hp)

It is important to confirm the exact engine and model year to select the exhaust system designed for your motorization and emission standards.

Upgrading to a sport exhaust system offers several advantages:

• Performance: Reduced gas backpressure improves exhaust flow, enhancing engine power and throttle response, especially in sport modes.
• Sound: Provides an optimized, sporty exhaust note both inside and outside the vehicle, characteristic of Cooper S models.
• Appearance: Larger diameter polished or chromed tailpipes create a more aggressive and premium look.
• Durability: Premium inox stainless steel construction (304L) resists corrosion and wear for long-lasting use.
• Installation: Many systems are bolt-on replacements for the original silencers or cat-back pipes, though some duplex setups may require bumper trimming.

Always ensure the exhaust system is ECE/E24-103R certified to guarantee legal road use compliance in Europe.

Technical details to consider when choosing or installing a sport exhaust include:

• Material: stainless steel 304L, often with chromed tips for aesthetic and corrosion resistance.
• Diameter of outlets: commonly 60-90 mm for a sporty appearance and sound volume.
• Fit type: bolt-on installation to original mounting points is common, with some models requiring minor bumper cutouts for duplex silencers.
• Sound control: some systems include manual sport mode valves to switch exhaust volume and tone.
• Compatibility: verify model-specific exhaust configurations, including ALL4 drivetrain and Cooper S or Diesel engines.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct fitment and maintain warranty conditions.
