Milltek Exhaust?
« on: 17 February 2010, 22:56 »
Hey guys,

Im looking to put a tasteful twin tip on my Mk2. Because its just for cosmetic reasons and for a slightly nicer sound I was thinking of going for just a Milltek back box. As Im not changing the rest of the exhaust system would it still be worth forking out and getting a Milltek rather than a cheaper brand? (I want to avoid it being too loud) Also, does anyone have a round idea how much just a back box is likely to cost? I cant find anywhere quoting prices for them at all.

Cheers, Mike

They're no longer in production for the mk2, which is a shame :sad:

I started a thread here about a year ago about Milltek exhausts for our Mk2s

I had been talking to Milltek about make a one off batch of systems if there was sufficient interest in them. How many people showed a glimmer of interest? Six  :rolleyes:
Red Mk6 gone replaced with a white Mk7 which has gone too. Green Mk2 here to stay.

i had to swop from the milltek 8v 2.25" system to a jetex 2".  and guess what, bum on seat, it felt more responsive.
the milltek was embarrassing loud.  i mean stupid.  however asthetically, it was beautiful.  very well made.  fit perfectly.
im so much more happier with the jetex. alot quieter, apart when at wot.then its just purposeful.
the fit is only as good as the garage who put it on.  i used midland vw. and i have no banging/knocking.  fitt and forget

Hmm, Jattex sounds quite tempting then. Anyone got any ideas how much a stainless backbox would be? And maybe where a decent stockist can be found in Suffolk?
