Default Milltek Exhaust

Hi,

I currently have a H&S exhaust fitted to my Spec C but the fitment is poor and its too loud.

Im considering fitting a Milltek system.

Can anyone with a Milltek system post up a picture of how the back box looks when fitted please

Not sure if you've seen this Nic. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cIya1IIizUQ

It's quite dark, but gives you an idea of how it would sound as well.

I've got a full Milltek system fitted to my car and they are good quality, reasonably priced (in comparison to some of the other 'up' market systems) and the back up is good if a problem does arise (unlike another supplier ).

I can't take any pics at the moment as the car is blocked in by snow but I'll try at the weekend if you want.

If you are interested in a Milltek system contact Indigo GT, as they are now agents for Milltek and did me a very good price - speak to Antony.

Thanks for the replies guys

Anymore pictures gratefully recieved..!

Looks like the Milltek one is a good fit I'll get one of those!
The guys that have them fitted have you ceramic coated the down pipe, heat wrapped them or just fitted them as they come?

My H&S currently sits to far to the left and the silenced centre section bangs on the underside of the car

I have got one being fitted next week which is costing me £1070 inc fitting, how does this compare?

Edit to add that is for a turbo back 3 inch system with 100 cell sports cat.

bought my Milltek system from a supplier on Ebay it cost £600. Much cheaper than anywhere else I could find at the time. This was the non cat/non resonated system.

My is fitted as Milltek standard system for a twin scroll, with all the reports I've read about ceramic coating I wouldn't bother as it would seem to flake off eventually.

The quality and fit on Milltek is brilliant, every hanger position is exactly where it should be - no having to 'persuade' the system into position and the flanges seal properly as well.

I think though, when I change the turbo next year that I will wrap the downpipe as this would seem to be a wise move.

I'll take some pics at the weekend after I've given the car a good clean and post them up.

Got mine from Litchfields. I've read its worth doing Zircotec coating on the downpipe to keep temps down. Give Iain or Jenny a shout they will sort you out Im sure.

Another Milltek fan here , originally fitted another aftermarket exhaust which was a poor fit before buying a Milltek which fitted perfectly out the box, absolutly quality stuff.

What down pipe you using? Had a similar issue and that was due to the Downpipe being a really bad fit.
