I have just brought a MK5 GTI 07 in Candy White. DSG.
Trying to get a few bits and bobs together for a K04 conversion, however, I am not quite sure on a exhaust, quite a few people have suggested Milltek Exhaust Non Resonated but I am getting a few different opinions on it and people are suggesting BCS, is there much price difference and is it worth actually going for either or just get a custom one made?
Love to hear your opinions and ideas, thank you!
P.s, will be uploading more content with this project in due time! 😝

Hi guys,I went the custom way, using 3” catless DP with 2.5” midpipes with Magnaflow. No regrets

Magnaflow and Borla are some of the best silencers I've ever used for tone, flow and (quiet) noise levels. I think Borla and Supersprint are probably up there as the absolute best in my experience.

When my OEM exhaust finally lets go, I'll be importing a system from the USA. Either a Techtonics Tuning dual Borla, or a Magnaflow :smiley:

I will look into all of these, whilst we're on the topic, do any of you have any videos on how your exhausts sound so I can reach a confirmed decision and if you don't, would it be possible to either send me a video or share a link to how they sound. Sorry to be a pain lol.
Thanks again :D!

Besides which, a video sound clip will never paint the full picture due to compression, and different speakers will alter the sound different as well.

Thanks Bobby, I did that not so long ago and I must say that I am really leaning towards the BCS WRC Exhaust. As the reviews are outstanding, normal driving and off boost the car sounds very OEM. However, the moment the foot is down and the boost is on, sounds very much as I want it.
Just need to give Nige a call early next week and see what kind of deal we can come to. Can't wait!
That will be another step towards the full K04 Stage 2+ movement :jumping:
