Title: exhaust help
Post by: GTi_James on 10 June 2013, 09:41
well, i had the 3" system, then sold the 3" system...wasnt down to the fact that i didnt want it, it was down to the fact that i was offered something else  :evil:

my old man took one look at the system i had and told me that if i could sell the horrid thing off he would put down 60% towards either a 42drafts or miltek system  :evil: :evil:

now obviously this is awesome however he said he would only pay for the cat back  :angry:

was wondering if i were to fit this (excuse the egay link)

would it work?

i know some would say just get the whole miltek set up but im thinking the money the old man would spend on a dp from miltek could go towards something else...like maybe a full polybush set up with engine mounts etc  :wink:

any help would be great  :grin:

lol i know right!

by the way I myself am not knocking the 3" exhaust at all! it was the view of my rent and the fact that i could get an exhaust with some style to it lol do like the sound of the 3" and would keep it if i were to do a ko4 upgrade in the near future but that still a long way off so :tongue:

That's the same setup as mine, although I used a 3" downpipe so had a reducer made up to join to the Milltek. It's a great overall system, almost silent at motorway cruising speeds but sounds amazing at full chat :cool:

I got my Milltek from Dubmeister, £30 cheaper than eBay :wink:
