    There was a JCW Clubbie from Northern Mini at Mickey's show in Liverpool 2 years ago and it sounded terrific. Think I would have one if I could switch it off and on easily. Wouldn't want to live with it every day.

    Jamie best thing is to change the filter and this will release noise from the DV. DV's and MINIs tend to bring up warning errors and a few cars have ended up going into limp with diffrent ones fitted such as the Forge
