Title: Milltek Exhaust
Post by: rsreid2000 on March 12, 2011, 10:46:14 am

My car has only done 3,000 miles and I fancy a Milltek Exhaust.
Should I wait for the original to fail or buy one now.
What are the benefits of changing now and do you recommend I go for resonated or non resonated.

Cheers

Buy one now and enjoy the sound :happy2:

Resonated will be slightly quieter than Non Resonated, depends on how loud you want it too be. Have a search for a few videos on youtube to see if that helps

 Jack, go for the non res - it is brilliant. The resonated is quieter than stock so you may be disappointed with that.

Can you still enjoy a nice quiet ride on the motorway with non res?? I like a quiet drive!
Will these fit the ed30 (tho ones you have coming into stock) don't suppose you a r32 style one going cheap?

I've got the Non-res and the res and I felt the same way about booming noise on long trips.
I can assure you that the louder option is fine on cruise, no louder until you gas the car and sounds great on full song.

Hope that helps
Bill

I have read somewhere that fitting this exhaust will bring a light on the dash that you just have to live with. Is that right.
Car is not mapped, no plans as yet to map until out of warranty.

Fitting a Milltek will NOT put any warning lights on. :happy2: I had a Milltek cat back on my last GTI & no problem. :smiley:

Hi chaps,

Had so many PM's that rather than price each one individually I will make a list of prices for all variations in the group buy section later.
