    Wow, looks really nice Greg !!
    It actually has 3 silencers, doesn't it?
    How is the sound compared to stock?
    How about performances?


    Marco

    P.S. Out of interest, how much did it cost?

        Marco,

        All in including the buying the downpipe it was £830. It was a bit more than i was originally quoted, but clives remark was im not doing another one at that price. He said it was a very difficult exhaust to make.

        yup it has 3 silencers. 2 small diameter silencers on the centre section and the rear back box. When i took it down there i just said to them i want it to sound nice but not to be too boomy so they said they would probably just do 1 back box, then they decided on 2 and when i turned up to pick it up the second time it had 3 boxes.

        performance seems pretty good now and seems to spool up better, but it could just be the sound of the exhaust deceiving me. I seem to find i drive around everywhere with the window open now. Come rain or shine. The sound i s a lot more throaty and relatively quiet on tickover which is a characteristic of turbo cars anyway.

            With or without sports CATs ?

            Marco is still working on my 70mm pipe. I've asked him to add a take-off point for an 'evacusump' connection. Will probably also go to Prism for the system - with a decent sports CAT.

              how does an exhaust like this compare to the miltek one (got my mind set on miltek).

              is the miltek 3" ?

                  miltek is 2 1/2" i think, dont quote me on that though. Also the Miltek uses the double pipe setup like the standard exhaust i think. Having a single pipe is better for the gas flow.

                  No cats at all on this one. Im not sure if will go for the vacuum connection for the breather, I guess i could always use the thermocouple connection to test one out.

                    none at all or u mean the steel / anti cat pipe thingies ? that should effect the mot right?

                    on my old audi 80 i got a custom job done but kept the cats incase of a emmisions road test.. still got *ahem* special mot's done thankfully.

                        When I had the CATS of my car for a while you could really tell by the smell. Reminded me of going to the car auction with my dad when I was a kid. Sure all those fumes damaged me

                          I'm sure that my Miltek is 70mm which is 2¾". I might be wrong though.

                            sorry to change subject, if i want a miltek, will i need any extra downpipes or anything? does the miltek come with cats.. buying an sport exhaust used to be so simple till i bought the s2.

                            Greg ur exhaust rox, jelous, just cant afford that much at the moment..

                              I got the Milltek RS2 exhaust from the cats back. They do a downpipe and also sports cats (mega bucks).
                              BUT - I've got an Avant, so it will probably be totally different for the Coupe. There probably isn't an RS2 Cat back exhaust for the Coupe.

                                the standard miltek i got quoted £550 +vat for a cat back system which connects to the standard setup.

                                Im not sure how there cat downpipe system is setup up, that might be a single pipe but is more than likely a double pipe jobbie.

                                The other thing i noticed was how much the old cats and exhaust weighed, one of the guys at prism said he went to pick it up like a normal exhaust but had no chance so had to get a hand to move it.
