    RS2 Milltek Full Exhaust or What else is there to choose from?

    I have felt the mighty weight of the RS2 Exhaust, and decided I change the damn thing!

    I want a full stainless exhaust, and would lke the choice of having the ability of making it louder by maybe taking one of the silencers out if it was not loud enough, but of course puting the silencer back in for 'quiet' tracks. (Done by replacing one of the silenced sections with a strait through pipe, just like a 'De-Cat pipe')

    I am deffo gonna have it mapped without the cats in, so i have a nice big 3" or however big it is system, thats nice and light, nice a sporty sound, but without sounding pap, or like a boy racer.

    WHERE IS THE CHEAPEST PLACE TO BUY A FULL SYSTEM MILLTEK OR HAYWARD & SCOTT EXHAUST THEN?

    Any idea's?

    If I was you I wouldn't be buying a Miltek as they are silly money new,I was offered a second hand one on here I said I would have it and not heard anything since. For the price of a brand new Miltek you can have a very good 3" custom exhaust built.

        Prospeed or pipeworxs are your best bet.

            I had a milltek on my rs2. Sounded lush!

            I think pete at quattro corner can do them at a good price.

              Yeah but it wont sound as good and probably drone.

              I have a full 3" downpipe to sports cat joining onto the Milltek 3" centre and back box and no custom system will match it for exhaust note and zero drone.

                Wouldn't know fella haven't heard of them.

                @ Jamo if drone is a problem which i agree it would be,don't the add another box? Or extend the tail pipe a little so it sits a little bit further out?

                  I've heard of them, they do very good work but the price is high (you get what you pay for, same as ojz engineering's work both companies if you can afford it and don't mind paying are worth checking out)

                        We have a milltek on our S2, exhaust note is spot on and as said above, no drone. Would highly recommend!

                          Very high quality! They made me a 3 1/2" downpipe and a 3" system. No drone.

                            Is the Miltek a 2.75" or 3" as I am looking for a 2.75" cat-back system for my Coupe to join to an RS2 downpipe-cats setup?

                            Sorry for the slight hijack

                              Fraser, all i would say is get yourself to Advanced Automotive Systems, which is 2min drive from your work down at scotchwood rd. They Stuart there knows his thing and is brilliant with exhausts. he did my downpipe twice and if i am to do any exhaust work i would go to him. You can have a full system as good or better than milltek IMO and the price would definitelly be a good one(judging of the top name exhaust prices).

                              I wouldnt buy a milltek over AAS in no way.
