Looking into getting a new cat back system as i already have a 3"dp and sports cat.
been looking on ebay and seen both a scorpian and miltek both for roughly the same price.
here are the links:

which one is better? also will there be a differnece in sound between hidden and twin tailpipes?
would prefer the hidden style also i dont want it tooooo loud lol :grin:
p.s. incase your wondering why am i getting an exhaust and wheels its because im gunna hold off on the wheels till after the winter period :D save a bit more :smiley:

+1 :grin:

Milltek are overrated IMHO!
Scorpion are nice exhausts.
-
noticed ones resonated and the other isnt, depends how loud ud like it i suppose, and theres free goodies with the scorpion 1 :), lookin fr a decent system myself but is the price you pay for a miltek really worth it, seen loads of other exhaust systems cheaper and look not too bad and made from same materials, surely the tailor made systems that fit the car would have the same bends and length etc for any make, or am i wrong.
-
ye wasnt sure how LOUD the non resonated would be?
never really heard either of them, dont want it overally loud aka chavtastic lol but want a bit of grunt :evil:
tried to look on google and all the mk4 seem to be r32s lol with only like 1/2 vids of gti?
dont know whether to go for scorpian because its cheaper and resontaed (even though some say the scorpians can be quite loud)
or
the miltek (always heard good things about them) pay a lil bit extra and get a better exhaust?
look for 2nd hand ones and seen them sold for like £200-250ish
edit: just seen this on miltek website;
Q) What is a resonator and what's the difference between a resonated and non-resonated exhaust system?
A) A resonator is a chamber in the exhaust system that contains a specific volume of air which is designed to cancel out certain frequencies of sound (made by the engine) - making the exhaust noise quieter.
Therefore, a non-resonated exhaust system will give you extra performance and a louder exhaust note and the resonated system will give you extra performance without increasing the exhaust noise much.
So seems like a non resonated one wont be overally loud??? :undecided:

but why all the fuss about miltek, i know it may be a gr8 exhaust but surely theres cheaper alternatives.

The sound and quality - but unless you can get it cheap other makes such as blueflame are just as good :smiley:
Or just go custom :smiley:
-
Another couple of options well worth looking at are Piper or Jetex. :smiley:
-
kl, i suppose any aftermarket system at 2.5" or more would be beneficial anyhow no matter what make eh

Yep some may be a bit loud though :wink:
Also if you are getting a sports cat it is worth getting a good make as a few people on here and at my local garage have had trouble passing MOT's with cheap cats :smiley:
