Performance and Quality from Quicksilver - UK's premier exhaust products manufacturer!
The original manifold has four short primaries and a restrictive collector followed by two catalytic converters in series. These catalytic converters have cores with about 500 cells per square inch (cpsi) giving a flow area of approximately 60%.
The Quicksilver Manifold and 'Race-Cat' has four longer tuned length primaries followed by a single free-flow catalytic converter. This 'Cat' has a microscopically thin Fecralloy metallic core of 200 cpsi to which the essential Platinum and Rhodium are applied at a much greater density (25 grams per cubic foot compared to 10 grams on a typical aftermarket product).
This all results in a flow area of approcimately 85% whilst remaining clean enought to meet emissions requirements.
[ ] The Fecralloy metallic core is very durable, far more so than ceramic cores typically used.
[ ] Incorporates a triple-walled flexible section to a much higher spec than the twin-wall OE item.
[ ] Accelerated gas-flow draws heat away more efficiently.
[ ] Bolt-On fit - precision engineered.
[ ] The two original lambda sensors are retained.
[ ] Dyno tests show a 12 bhp improvement and increased mid-range torque.
[ ] Type 304 Stainless Steel - Raw Finish
Imported from the UK. Deliver may take 2-4 weeks.
Not legal for street use in California and other states adopting California Emissions Standards.
NOTE:
Due to the racing application of this product, the limited warranty covers the product for 30-days from purchase against defects from manufacture or workmanship. Since an improperly tuned engine can cause the 'Check Engine Light' to illuminate, there is no guarantee against 'Check Engine Lights' when using this product. Off Road Use only.
About Quicksilver
QuickSilver Exhaust Systems has been a recognised maker of original and ‘Sports’ performance stainless steel exhaust systems for the World’s finest classic, prestige and exotic sports cars since 1973.
Over 80% of the business is mail order to a worldwide private and trade client base. The exhausts are manufactured by craftsmen in order to ensure the original performance, appearance and sound.
At QuickSilver the whole system is made out of stainless steel. QuickSilver Exhaust Systems has achieved an ISO 9001 Accreditation following a complete assessment by the independent auditors, CQS. This prestigious honour is the Global Benchmark for quality and excellence.

In the early 1970’s the average life expectancy of a standard (mild steel) exhaust system was only 18 months - There was a demand for something better.
QuickSilver Exhausts grew from a prominent Fast-Fit chain and was founded in 1973, originally in Esher, Surrey.
A family business, originally formed to concentrate on distributing stainless steel systems, which grew into producing it’s own range of exhausts.
QuickSilver have always manufactured it’s standard systems to duplicate the original, as closely as possible, using the same thickness of material, the same mountings and the same internal silencer designs to ensure the correct appearance, performance and sound.
QuickSilver moved briefly to the Old Kent Road in southeast London before settling down in Battersea, central London from 1985 to 2003.
In 2004 QuickSilver moved to new purpose-built premises in Wormley, Surrey to focus on the creation of a modern QuickSilver Sports range of systems for the world’s finest cars. With a catalogue featuring over 3000 models QuickSilver believe they now have the largest range in the world. Please check for your system in our catalogue page.
Over the decades QuickSilver have accumulated an enormous volume of reference material with a comprehensive library of exhaust catalogues and manufacturer reference material back to the early 20th century.

For help finding the correct Exhaust System for your MINI, take a look at our Mini Cooper Cat Back Exhaust Application Guide.
Your R56 has a turbo that bolts to the exhaust manifold, with a downpipe after the turbo.
QUESTION FOLLOW UP - Okay. Thank you for your prompt response. My R56 is my daily driver. So far I’ve installed an air intake and quick silver exhaust. I want to add a down-pipe and exhaust manifold. What would you recommend? next year I would like to upgrade the turbo, intercooler, and get it tuned.
ANSWER TO FOLLOW UP: If you are planning a turbo upgrade in the future, I would recommend the larger 3" downpipe. However these products are not street legal and you will need to address the check engine light issue from the aftermarket cat....
