Well, what happened? We've all seen the video on YouTube. It's easily one of my favorite video's of all time.

Someone identified my exhaust manifold as a Janspeed item from probably when the car was nearly new, if it is a JanSpeed one.

Are they still as active with tuning classic Mini's. I know Jan Odor died a while ago, but did the Mini tuning stop there?

I think the last thing they did was the Janspeed SI Cooper exhaust thingy.

Links to the video's for those who haven't watched them:

It's a great watch for anyone. I've watched it close to 10 times and I'm still picking things up. It's that keeps on giving ;)

Their website is vague.

Hmm...

I think they've moved on from tuning Classics.

I think generally they've moved on but recently they made a very small batch of exhausts to the original design of the RSP S, I know as I've just sent off the money for one.

Maybe with enough interest they'd produce classic Mini exhausts regularly again.

I'm guessing they dont do re-builds like they did on the video. Good video though, it gave me some ideas :shifty:

I did not think Jan Odor had died. MiniWorld did a feature on JanSpeed in the last year and I was under the impression he was very much alive. Sadly it was his son who died.

They do rebuilds of any car, you just need deep pockets.

He is selling them as far as I'm aware, I'll see if he's willing to ship.
