Well,the big day is nearly upon me,i'm off up to get the car Mapped tomorrow and cant wait,am wondering if its worth me getting a Milltek back box put on whilst im there ?

Is there any point in me doing so or am i just better off leaving the back box as standard ?

Biggest gains are from replacing the cat with a sports cat - from the cat back its more about the noise  :smiley:

I'd save up and get the entire system replaced in one go

So if i only replace the back box,the only gains i will get will be more noise then ?

Sorry for the Noddy questions but ive never put an after market exhaust on a car in my life.

Pretty much.  The most restrictive part of the system is the CAT.

They put a stage 2 remap on my gti last week, brilliant service and a great bunch of lads, you will not be disapointed! Mine made 257bhp and 275 torque with a full milltek system and evoms intake. Feels amazing and pulls like a train!!
