Pat on the back to mrs 'tfsi' for not binning the lupo too.
In you opinion is the system of better quality that milltek? What grade stainless steel is it?

Indeed, she did well. Was more worried about the £££'s for recovery & repair bless her. Harry was oblivious throughout until the recovery driver arrived when Harry then decided it was time to monumentally overfill his nappy :sick:. Cheers son hahaha
The sound driving around is much better. The sound on boost I haven't really tried out yet, I overtook Sy a couple of times he may be able to comment. I will get my mate to drive by me while I drive his car. I plan to get back on the DD RR to see if any difference was made to the power graph.
A couple of improvements noted were; more room for the gear linkage cables going past the DP, more room for the lambda as it was quite close to a tunnel brace on the miltek & OEM Cupra style tailpipe compared to my old Twin Jet Miltek.
I will ask Dave on Monday about the grade of steel. Or maybe Nige could comment.

I think yours is quieter than than it was before, but that's a good thing imo. Sounded pretty meaty when you went by on WOT.
Obviously I haven't sat in yours since the miltek was removed. How does it compare to the VWR exhaust onthe stickered chav mobile.

The sounds in the cabin Cupra/Golf were very similar. Has a better quality sporty sound inside now driving around. The golf was silent when overtaking me at 70 ish but when you attacked those roundabouts sounded ace :driver:

How was your mpg on the way back? I can't get over the fuel economy. 22mpg on a gentle cruise for 180 miles :scared:
I get that in mine on trackdays!!! That Fabia has turned me into a mpg geek. Id easily have managed 45mpg on that journey
