Our new Gen 2 Mini header is manufactured out of 304 Stainless Steel Sport Exhaust Headers for MINI Cooper S R50, R52, R53 2002-06, including all 304 stainless steel flanges. For supercharged engine and manual transmission models. There are several ways to produced a cheaper header and all of them are inferior to a high quality header and generally succumb to failure in a short period of time. Easy ways to lower the cost of a header are to use inferior 201 stainless steel and mild steel flanges which rust. The woven flex joint is cheaper and definitely more prone to failure. Our headers do not use any of these items. These high performance headers were developed in Germany by a leading tuner and are manufactured out of heavy gauge T304 stainless steel for long life. Each set of headers includes a high quality 200 cpsi Euro 5 metallic catalytic converter. This catalytic convert is expensive but its quality is top - chances of a check engine light is greatly reduced.
