In the Italian Job the Mini's make a great noise when they accelerate, just wondering if Mini's in real life make that same noise. If they did I'd buy one just for the noise!

Twin SU's with K&N type filters can make a nice rorty sound.

But you can't beat a webber. :tongue:

agreed though you should buy a mini for it being a mini.

there really isn't enough BINI hate on the forum it's refreshing to see some. buy a mini for it being a mini though the noise is just the icing on the cake
