Some advice needed on Exhaust replacements

[phrudman]

Hi group,

My exhaust is about falling apart and I've been looking at performance parts online and the one that keeps coming up is Militek.

One thing interested me, a "hyperboost diverter valve" mainly because it said about smoother power delivery and that's something I've suffered from periodically since I got the car upgraded to 303hp about 4 years ago (overboosting).

I'm just wondering that since I'm a total idiot with no knowledge about cars am I best off taking it to a real expert / enthusiast for their recommendations or just going ahead and buying various Militek parts based on known improvements they make?

I've been badly ripped off before and was recommended the tuning company near Oxford but it's a fair drive and just need some honest advice as I don't want to get the old exhaust welded up yet again.

I look forward to hearing from anyone.

Paul

Miltek exhausts are pretty good, also take a look at Longlife exhausts too.

as for DV's there are alot of different ones on the market, just avoid the atmospheric types.

Thanks Greg, I'm in Hertfordshire is there anyone you'd recommend for checking the car out and advising me locally? Bedfordshire / Hertfordshire is fine. I love my car, just want to find the best person / people to sort it out, tried before and got burned.

My neighbour uses a chap in stevenage or gravely. He is away at the moment but i'll get the number to put on here. the other place I have seen is follet vw audi. but ive never been there myself. I do most work on mine myself at my dads garage in shropshire.

Dont goto prism motorsport for an exhaust though. I had mine built there and no end of problems with them

There is an independant audi garage in cambridge (cowley road garage, they also have another location bar hill motors again cambridge). A mate of one the owners here owns them, not performance place just a good garage
