- Fitting resonated Scorpion exhaust on Mini Cooper S R53.
Very nice quality stainless steel exhaust and more or less straight forward replacement for the old and rusty OEM exhaust.
For best sound experience use headphones.
Special Thanks to Oli from Orranje for wonderful customer service and gummies ;)
Check our other videos and Thanks for watching.
Really cool cinematography. Looks a million bucks!
Thank You!
The visuals on this are top notch! Class job and lovely car :)
Thank You!
@@hillsidecarspray6580 agree - very enjoyable experience
Stunning video - real pleasure to watch 😊
I’m very glad to see some good cuality production/content on YT, since now a days people just uploads whatever shity thing they make. I have an r53 so definitely a sub from 🇲🇽.
Thanks for your support, it means a lot!
Nice video mate, that took some time to set the camera/s up and edit it into a nice, noise free, small doco. I just ordered Scorpion headers for my R53 from Oli, really looking forward to gummies!
😂😂 you will get them no doubt. Thanks for your kind words on the video 👍🏻
Great video
Uffff !!! Love it... Keep them coming )))
Hehehe :)
great job
Brilliant 👏 thanks that's my mind made up
came here just cause i wanted to get a clue as to what my r53 would sound like with this exhaust but i think imma stick around for the long run, this some high qual videography and a lot of effort for a 2nd video on a 60~ sub channel. GJ bro and looking forward to more content
p.s. were about you based fyi? i live in the uk and im assuming you run some kinda shop
Hi. Thanks for your feedback 👍🏻
Im running body shop in Dublin.
I agree, nice work.
Great video production, great song, great car and a lot of care taken. Got a new sub :) - I also love the sound of the scorpion exhaust on my r53 :)
Thank you so much ;) 👍🏻
Are you pleased with your r53 exhaust
@@gomerdubs yes, great sound but not obnoxious
@@pixel-gamma im going to fit the manifold and the sports cat too . Thanks for the reply also 👍
Sounds beautiful! If only I could afford it... 😂😂
Love the jelly beans Orranje includes in the packaging 😃😃😃😃😃
Those were jelly bears 🤣🤣🤣 and yes its lovely and helps to concentrate on the job :)
@@hillsidecarspray6580 i finish before start the work...😅😅😅
😂😂
hi, thanks for the video. do you have the 163ps or 170ps mini?
Very nice Video! =)
Hopefully your rear bumper will not get burned by the exhaust.
Thanks! No it will not, I readjusted it after a week of driving, now it's spot on ;)
@@hillsidecarspray6580 Great! 👍
My first exhaust on my R53 left some marks in my bumper 🙄😂
@@hillsidecarspray6580 I would get heat fabric. I have a few wraps around the piping where the exhaust goes under the rear bumper. It's well worth it and if done properly looks great as well.
where and how did you get the infotainment screen in there?
It's best!
May I know the title of the bgm in the video?
Where did you purchase the center digital display?
Was just about to start this but didn’t have any haribos 😅
😂
Sorry but I cannot really hear diffrecnces between the stock exhaust and the scorpion.
Great video. Where did you purchase your Scorpion exhaust and for how much?
Thanks! I've bought it from Orranje in UK it was £599 if I remember correctly.
Why is your repair shop so dark?
how loud are those “gun shot” like pops when standing a bit away from the car?
Hi. Not too loud, sometimes it can pop a bit louder or quieter it depends. To get loud pops you'd need non resonated exhaust I believe, however this one (resonated) is just right for me.
Hi there, can I just ask is this the resonated scorpion cat back?
Yes, resonated one
Have you got to remove the battery undertray to fit it?
Yeah battery undertray had to go
@@hillsidecarspray6580 Damn it. I love the way that undertray looks like some kind of mini diffuser. I wanted to keep mine. I'm looking at exhausts to buy right now and seem to be limited to either Miltek or a used JCW one if I can find one. I like the Direnza exhaust too but i think the undertray has to go for that aswell.
@@hillsidecarspray6580 Can you fit the battery tray back on afterwards or is it a definite no no. I love the way it loos like a little mini diffuser on R53's I do like the scorpion exhaust though.
Yeah, I managed to put it back on however it needs some cutting to make it fit nicely
@@hillsidecarspray6580 AH okay. Resonated scorpions cost as much as the resonated Milteks now so I think I'll go the miltek option for a more OEM fit.
Nice production value! I'm missing some bass in the exhaust note, is that a characteristic of the exhaust or from the microphone/camera? For people searching for a cheaper alternative for the Scorpion or Milltek, check out my review of the Gravity Performance exhaust here: ua-cam.com/video/aJC8XYb1rPw/v-deo.html
Thanks for your feedback. Regarding the sound it's probably my error having some trouble with sound levels in Davinci, also it's Bmpcc4k onboard mic's as I forgot proper mic at home when filming last part of the video :) happens
@@hillsidecarspray6580 Perfect excuse to make more videos ;)
:))
How much of a pain in the arse is it to retrofit infotainment? It's either that or I buy one with a chrono pack and switch out the decals cause as much as I love an R53 I just don't like the centre speedo 😬
I have the same display. It’s stock. Back then you could chrono pack or navigation.
