ive got a mk4 golf gt (150) and im thinking of buying a milltek exhaust system for it, i know that these exhausts sound amazing on petrol engines, but i dont know what it will be like ok a turbo diesel ?? anybody put an exhaust system on a diesel before ?

Ive got the miltek large bore/decat downpipe on mine and a custom system which is extremly similar to the miltek system, sounds lovely when you give it some, when you floor it it sounds like a petrol. You need the donwpipe and decat imo as thats where the gains are, noticable difference in the mid/top end i found. Only thing with the miltek systems is their overpriced imo.

You'll be the only with a sports cat on a diesel if you get one

Diesels don't require a CAT to pass the MOT  :wink:

If its performance you're after get the decat downpipe from THS or Milltek

If you want sound then fit the cat back

For both, fit both

Think I will be getting an exhaust for mine soon.

I had a Milltek on my R32 and really miss the noise, is there much choice for us diesel owners?

Milltex or THS for the downpipe

Milltek / Blueflame / custom exhaust for the cat back

Don't suppose anyone has got any decent sound clips or videoa of different exhausts on diesels have they?

Suppose I better trawl through youtube!
