i have a year old, but perfectly mint milltek full system for the mk2 8v golf. it fits perfectly.
reason for sale is im going custom from pipeworks. i want a straight 2". the milltek goes from 2" to over 2.25" after the first silencer. it was perfect on my std 8v engine. but after the 2.0 block, big valve head, silly cam'd engine that im now running, that breaths a hell of a lot more, its just a little bit too noisy for me as its a daily as i drive alot.

don't get me wrong, it's by no means chav loud, but i drive to lancaster from derby alot. and it just gets a litttle overkill sometimes. however on half throttle its silent. its just when you put your foot down it makes itself known! but not over the top.

performance wise. i think it was evo mag which did a feature on aftermarket exhausts. out of all the brands, milltek was the only one which gained power.  and for my golf, i put a new std 8v vw exhaust on the car. it was beautifully quiet, but really reigned the power in.   it just wouldnt rev in high gears, and really slowed the car down. but that was with my engine.

pm for details

the main cgti site has been trying to get a group buy through tsr on making up some mk2 tall block manifolds from milltek. its been going on for months now, but still no light at the end of the tunnell.

So thats 5 orders so far.

Come on everybody, surely there's more of you that would want a new quality exhaust?

For that sort of money you can get a full stainless custom jobbie with your choice of tail pipe...probably easier than trying to sort 15 definates. Heres the pipes on my new system :)

custom, a decent custom, ie what im going to be paying from pipeworks is circa £370. there the only ones, along with longlife id trust.
however milltek make exhausts for 911's rs4's, r8's, r32's m5, m3.
i dont think any owners of those cars will be going to their local powerflow dealers :)

i personally wouldn't trust powerflow to make an exhaust for a petrol lawnmower !!!!

i had one for my RS turbo and it sounded ok for about a week!!

the welds wern't stainless and they looked like they were welded by a child!!!

the boxes were so cheep one day after giving it a little bit the rear box was ON FIRE !! inside , burning my rear bumper off

when i went back they told me it was my fault and i had invalidated the waranty by changing the engine to a tuned one !!!

My exhaust has just dropped to bits.  I was going to buy this one:  http://www.speedbox.co.uk/products/product_list.html?model=3287;type=jetex_aluminised_system


Seems like good value.
