Stay far away
Let me start by saying i had to change every mount, nothing lined up. The resonator is nonexistent. It's literally a empty bubble in the pipe. Sounds horrible! Has the worst buzz above 3000 rpm i have ever heard. By the time I heard it i could not return it due to the modifications I had to make just to get it on the car!!!

Looks good
Dose not directly bolts on had to cut it to make it fit

Fits very well, loud exhaust.
Excellent fit once you figure out hot it goes together, instructions on how to set up would have get the 5 stars. Is very loud on my cooper s, your neighbors are going to love you. It has a very deep drone on idle and super loud once you go pass 4k rpm. Very nice quality and finish.

Feb 2022 fitment had issues
Had to cut off all hangers and adjust liberally to get the exhaust tips to be level and centered, also pointed the right way (not up or down), the "mufflers" don't have any insulation in them so they make alot of noise. It's a cheap set of parts for an R53 exhaust, but expect to need fabrication to make fit.

Sounds good, sorta fits
If you buy this kit be prepared to cut and weld the hangers in the correct places and maybe tweak the pipe bends a bit. None of the hangers were welded on in the same place, the two on the mid pipe behind the cat were not even welded on parallel to each other, which if you know the system they are supposed to be.Having said all that, the kit sounds good, included all the hardware and gaskets, and the price point is much much lower than other systems. If you have a torch and welder and time it may be worth the cost savings. If you are expecting it to bolt right on and go ... not so much.

Terrible waste of money. DO NOT BUY THIS
Was a horrible installation process none of the hangers lined up at all and had to be cut and adjusted. Then within 2 years of owning one of the mufflers broke and the sound it makes is terrible. You're better off just doing the one ball mod or deleting both resonators all together off the stock exhaust that's what I'm going to end up putting back on my car because neither dna motoring or Amazon offers any kind of warranty. Just a warning seriously do not buy this I know it's tempting at that price point but just take it to a muffler shop instead it's not worth the headache. Would give 0 stars if I could

It seems to be hollow! Fit Sucks. But sounds good.
The media could not be loaded. This is a preliminary review. I didn’t want an exhaust, but this was so cheap that I bought it. I figured that if I’m gonna put an exhaust it better be loud, and was originally going to cut off the resonator. But after inspecting it, it seems to be hollow. Resonator is hollow, no baffles inside. I can’t see inside mufflers, but knocking on it gave a a hollow sound. See videos.Update - Installation:It sucks.1. All hangers do not line up. I cut off all the hangers on the mufflers, and will eventually cut off the center hangers. (Shortened them for now).2. I had to cut the y piece to position tips. At the “Tops of the Y” aft ends about an inch.3. Used the stock straps to install it. I re bent them and red ripped the holes because they are smaller.4. The brackets the hold muffler tips together are totally off. I had to redrill the. I drilled 2 small holes.Sound: it is pretty loud & raspy.I’ll update with sound cuts.

Some adjustments required
Getting everything aligned without cutting, bending , fabbing , and patience will not happen
