    Milltek too boomy advise needed.

    I have a resonated Milltek system on my B5 RS4 which drones too much and is too boomy.

    I have heard that the wadding can disintegrate and the exhaust become too loud. I have opened up both silencers and fitted new wadding but the exhaust remains too loud and droney.

    I am now thinking of replacing the middle box with a new Jettex one of the same design. Am I wasting my time or will different brands of silencers sound different?

    Thanks in advance.

    Dan.

    Yes, check the middle box. The mufflers are mainly responsible for the volume. The resonator is responsible for the boom. That has been my experiences anyway.

      Go for the Jetex, the Milltek middle boxes are crap on the RS4.

          I'd just remove it sell and buy the Jetex system, you'd actually be in profit doing it!
