    Anyone got aSound Clip or Video of Milltek on RS2?

    Im trying to make my mind up on an exhaust, but worried that the Milltek will be too quiet and boring.

    Hayward & Scott seem damn expensive, and need my car for 4 days.

    AAS Exhausts seem ok, but the choice of tips look a bit cheap, the website has no detailed photos of work, and the place seems a bit small scale, with no long history of previous projects.

    RS Fabrications look nice, but of course I wont know what it sounds like till its done and paid for!

    has anyone got any videos or Sound clips of exhausts?

    Does anyone know if Milltek are 3" all the way through?

    :-(

    Milltek don't do a 3" downpipe for the Avant / RS2 AFAIK, I had a hybrid system custom downpipe / centre to Milltek centre and backbox all in 3" by Pipewerx

    Sounds mint ask Terrybullwon

        The old MTM 18"s are looking good! Had them refurbed at Porsche Centre Newcastle, but I think im gonna stick some Pirelli Corsa's or some 1/2 Slicks on them as the Pirelli PZeros are a bit pants really!

          I must disagree with your opinion on AAS. Every time i have been there, there has always been a race car/ an RS car or other with some pretty nifty work done.

          The milltek i had created a drone at about 3000rpm which to my ears was unbearable to cruise in on motorway speeds, but i bet this is not something that will bother you much. Making an exhaust loud is always easy, dont need a high rated name to do that or spend a lot of £££. Just keep one cat and lose the boxes, or lose everything!

            Well i dont want a silly loud exhaust, but it would be nice to have one of the silencers removable with a straight pipe in its place, for a normal day but louder sound, and of course be able to replace that with a silencer for the track use, where there are Fb limits!

            I may pop over to AAS tomorrow and have a chat wit them!

                  Note to all,

                  photos always tell it way better, whatever the message.

                    AAS was originally recommended to me by Jas11 here in the forum and it is one of the best shops i have been to.

                    I may go there in the future for repairs on my existing catback which the greek exhaust guy that originaly made it, had some weldings that were not stainless and have already begun to rot...

                          I've found that the miltek is noisy if youre not in the mood for it(drone at 2.5k) however the rest of the time the exhaust note is nice. Wish my car was as quiet as standard sometimes though..That downpipe picture is nice..... I'm decatted is I drive in an ecologically sound manner at all times when I am asleep.....:mischeif:

                            So is Milltek all 3" all the way back?

                            If I bought a Milltek & fitted it, then went over to AAS and had them fabricate the de-cat pipework up to the downpipe at 3" so I can choose to run the cats or not at my choice, then once they are all fitted, then i guess it would be a hell of a lot easier for whoever is going to do my engine, as once the turbo is chosen, they just need to fabricate the downpipe once the new exhaust manifold is fitted in place with the turbo. I wouldnt want the car to be mapped with the standard exhaust, then me coming home and fitting an exhaust systemn afterwards would I ! lol

                            Has anyone got a photo of the Milltek System, either under the car or just the tailpipes?

                              See post 113 Prospeed, i'm pretty sure it was only £240-£250.

                              The milltek does drone at about 2.5k, but they do sound bloody good on WOT.
