Default Problem with Milltek? HELP!

I drive an 03 STI 9 Twin scroll JDM. I have recently discovered that the high flow sports stainless exhaust system, which Milltek claim to be aircraft grade 304 stainless steel, is rusting. Please be advised to check the jointing flanges. Milltek state that a high flow sports cat exhaust system is only covered for two years or 80,000km.

Has anyone spotted this problem to date?

I have a Milltek and this is news to me, maybe you'd be better of asking a mod to move this to general, I only found this by searching for Milltek.

Have you spoke to Miltek?

Did you buy it from Miltek?

Did you buy it from 3rd Party claiming it to be Miltek?

Not Miltek lol

The RCM systems are nice quality and sound well too. The TSL Pulse extraction system is a good one, also with good build quality. Some of the HKS/Blitz/STi systems are nice but many are way too loud. Primary designs make some beautiful kit but their customer service was sh1te.

Magnex, Revolution and Mongoose all make a decent exhaust too at very good prices.

My choice was Simpson Race Exhausts...

If you saw their work at Autosport, you'll have a good idea why i chose them.

I saw Miltek at the AS show which is why I questioned you

They looked pretty good to me
