The resonated system is louder than the std system, but not by much, however the non-res system has some boom around cruising speeds on the motorway. Difficult choice for me, as I like the noise when pushing on, but the boom became a real drag when doing long distances.

How does the sound level between the blue flame and the Miltek compare?

Blueflame is out a third louder then the milltek. Too loud for some. Enough for some.

Blueflame is ment to Not "Drone" but i have no complaints with my non res milltek.

I would of thought the louder the exhaust is, the more louder it would be in the cabin??

But ive not yet been in a GTi to hear one yet, hopefully Gti Inters will be the 1st ...... nudge nudge Nick :wink:

i thought you heard mine philys?  :kiss:

its all "subjective" as Robin would say, initially when i had the blueflame exhaust i did think it was a tad loud but that was after driving standard exhaust for a year. Now ive had the Blueflame for a while i love it more and more, it makes a truely awesome noise when you want it too but i drive 40 miles on the motorway everyday and have learnt that it can be silent when you want it too. i cant be bothered with those chavy Milltek's  :tongue:
