Title: Cheapest place to buy a Milltek exhaust
Post by: Baz300 on April 22, 2012, 02:59:54 pm
Where would the cheapest place to get a milltek exhaust delivered from be?
I'm up in Aberdeen so don't imagine there wold be any places up here that would do a fitted deal.

I'm just looking for the twin pipe like the standard exhaust, non resonated

List price on a web site and the price you if you pick up the phone are sometimes very different.

I'm tempted to get a package from demon tweaks through eBay
It's a bluefin a cat back system and a k&n panel filter for £800 deliverd, is that a good price?
They offer free fitting when you phone to pay for it so I'm going to try them for a discount when I phone

Both the cat back and K&N are a bit of a waste of money. So you're basically paying £800 for a bluefin which is more than a Revo map!

You'd be better off buying a cheap CAI, using the cat back money on a cheap downpipe and getting a custom Stage 2 map from someone like R-Tech for the same money

I'm not really wanting to tune it much.
I just want the exhaust to have a bit more noise and the remap to free up a bit more power.

I don't want to take it any further than that can't be botherd de carting etc

Id rather lay the money and get an exhaust system that will last longer than I will have the car, if the cat fails I'll replace it with a sports cat

Nobody said decat it mate, just get a sports cat. Likely to last longer than the OEM one too of mine was anything to go by :confused:

I am tempted to get a revo remap done.

I think Wallace performance do them now and a lot of my friends are really happy with there mapping work but I would have to get the exhaust and filter fitted before I got it done there.

What's the going rate to get the revo map done?

On awesome Gti's site the exhaust is £409 including vat and it says free postage, but whe I add it to the cart  I get a price of £445? Think there must be an error.

I'll phone Wallace and awesome gti tomorrow might even see if demon tweaks will do a deal
