Title: I want it. How?...
Post by: benmanc on 11 March 2014, 20:27
Seen this video the other day and been hunting down an exhaust that is similar sound.

Would any 3" turboback non res sound like this?

Anybody know of anything that is similar?

Just for info Simons is the overseas market name for Jetex so that would be worth trying for the silencer.

Looks similar to my system, I have a full 3" but sounds deeper, I'm going to need a middle resonator added if I want to pass noise emissions for the track  :sad:

It's a custom job, 3" all the way, Mendrel bent and back purged TIG welded with v-band flanges.

I have to say, xtex, that sounds alot better than I expected it to but it does seems a tiny bit drowney if that makes any sense? or is that just because its outside?

I still think Im going to go down the custom route been speaking to my local place, http://www.pro-speedexhausts.com/

This guy knows his stuff and is really nice, always has time for a chat etc.
He offered me a deal which to be fair isn't the cheapest around but I get the benefit of not having to fit anything, lifetime guarantee and custom made to exactly how I want it.

Also he has ensured me that I will get 3" DP going into a 200 cpsi Sports Cats (with a lifetime guarantee) going into 2.5" custom piping to ensure no compressed piping is use so it remains 2.5" from the cat until the exit which will be 4" anni style with a concave centre.

I can also choose exacly how I want it to sound total cost £750.

For the money it does the job, depends what you are looking for in an exhaust to be honest. If your going for power and a bit of sound then it does the job. It's not that loud really and I wouldn't get rid of it but my hand is being forced by the missus haha!

Not a bad price that for what you are getting and to be honest that sounds like the milltek set up which would've quite a bit more the with sports cat.

I do really love the sound of this though!

I'm not impressed with milltek have had 3 mk4 with milltek fitted all 3 have had welding cracked. latest pne cracked at weld where tailpipes go into silencer. Last mk4 same but other side where pipe goes into silencer and was only 2yrs old. This ones coming off and pipewerx custom job going on.

Post by: GTi_James on 17 March 2014, 22:30
i got a miltek anni rear and CAT back, APR 200cl CAT and 3inch DP, all in for about £480 so it really depends where you go i suppose, wouldnt mind the custom option but tbh the sound of the miltek is what i love and a fair few people around these ends are now looking to turn after their exhaust systems are run next to mine

maybe when i get the mk6 i'll go custom but i dont mind a bit of scene tax on the mk4 lol may even go air ride next year lol
