I have a Scorpion system which is also quiet

Post by: RKett 16v on 13 January 2008, 12:04: Think im gonna opt for a milltek on my mk2 this time looking at others opinions, it looks good without being ott (twin oval type) and shouldnt be that loud :smiley:

Ive had a magnex 6x4 on my old one and it was too loud low down and the pipe and back box were massive! :shocked:

All i would say is look at others experiences and make a choice

Post by: SuSpEcT-GTII on 15 January 2008, 22:52: Interesting, just done a search on this subject and it seems Miltek is the universal choice (if you've got the dollars!) and if you're after performance without sounding like a twit in a Corsa! :sick:

Also just had a look for prices which come in at about Ã‚£300. That seem about right to you? (That's the exhaust not the Corsa!) :grin:

Post by: MarkS on 15 January 2008, 23:10: Was gonna say, thats pretty expensive for a Corsa :laugh:

Seems like a fair price to me for the exhaust

Post by: SuSpEcT-GTII on 15 January 2008, 23:28: Hehehehe... I'll never get tired of Corsa bashing! :grin: :grin:

Yeah, was looking at that very page from Awesome, seems like a decent site, good to hear they're reliable too, Unlike GSF who sent me my new mk2 radiator along with a new headlamp...for a mk3! :rolleyes:

Post by: veedubmk2golf on 19 January 2008, 23:36: I'd recommend a Jetex myself as I've recently bought one and it really gives off a real nice subtle sports sound and have seen them on plenty of mk2 golfs. You get lifetime guarantee what more can you ask for :grin:
