Milltek HJS Tuning ECE Downpipes New for New Mini Mk3 (F56) Mini Cooper S 2.0 Turbo (UK and European models & Pre-LCI Only) (2014-2018) – Improved Flow, Sports Catalyst
This is Milltek's HJS Tuning ECE downpipe set for the New Mini Mk3 (F56) Mini Cooper S 2.0 Turbo (UK and European models & Pre-LCI Only). These replace the factory downpipes with HJS high-flow sports catalysts that carry full ECE type-approval, so you get a genuine flow improvement over the restrictive factory units without taking the car outside emissions compliance.
They're aimed at drivers who want more from the downpipes than the standard units allow, but need the car to stay legally usable on the road and pass an emissions test, which a straight de-cat pipe won't do.
Because they're type-approved, these can be run on a car that's used on the road, unlike a straight de-cat pipe.

Is it road legal?
Every version of this part is listed by Milltek as EC approved.
Do I need a remap?
A suitable remap is strongly recommended, as the engine management needs to account for the change in flow and sensor readings. Speak to your tuner before fitting.
Can I use it with my standard exhaust?
Yes. Milltek lists it for use with the factory (OE) exhaust system.
How is a sports cat different from a de-cat?
A sports cat still contains a catalyst, just a less dense one that flows better than the factory unit. A de-cat removes the catalyst completely.
What is it made from?
T304L aircraft-grade stainless steel, which is anti-magnetic and resists discolouration better than lower grades.
Is there a warranty?
Yes. Milltek products are covered against defects in materials and workmanship. Contact us with your order number if you have a problem.
