Yeah, it looks good, pal. :cool:

I was thinking about replacing my centre for a non-res to increase the flow. Was it boomy or drone'y at cruising speed.......... Say 70-80?

And the milltek high flow:

(http://i163.photobucket.com/albums/t318/richw911/DSC00634-1.jpg)

 :shocked: :shocked: :shocked:

Mechanic who fitted my high flow said the cat back milltek could do its job because of the restictive standard cat.

Makes a big differance to the mid range :afro:
