Can't wait until an audio clip or video is released

I hope they get the rear box to sit straight...which they seemed to fail to manage in every S3/R32 I' know of...it would also be good if they managed to get the exhaust to not bang on the underside when nipping on and it's really hot - again as every S3/R32 I know of does.

Yet another update:

Quote from: Leigh Ravey
Good news.

 We have now released the Mk6 GTI system.

 Please see the following link for options - http://www.millteksport.com/exhaust.products.cfm?variantid=308

 With regards pricing you will need to speak with your local Milltek Sport stockist.

Looks like there's 90mm Jet (rounded), 100mm Jet and 100mm GT-100 (slash cut) trims

Looks better with the slash cut pipes. Less wheel barrow like. I'd settle for a set of just the trims, not that I've picked my car up yet.

Well, just rang Turner Race Developments in Stroud and they're ordering a 90mm inwardly rolled/Jet system. I'll post some pics/sound clips when it arrives!  :laugh:

Cue a call from the guys at Turner Race Developments and the Milltek's finally been fitted. 90mm round cut versus the 70mm standard. Obligatory pics:





Overall it sounds a tad meatier, especially 3k revs and up, but below this it sounds almost the same as the standard catback. No droning at all. I'll try and get a video up if I have time!

Yeah, fab, but does it make it go faster? Thought that was the point of a performance exhaust...
