APR's exhaust system is another good choice for the mk5.
Not low enough mk5
Not on the road enough mk3

I don't know how this works for you mk5 boys, but the older Golf mob seem to love this guy. http://www.pipewerx.com/index.html I forget his name, but he's pretty well known in VW circles. Might be worth a try and his work is supposed to be top notch.

I drive past this place every day on my way to work in Burscough - looks like a really pro place and he's always got some tasty machinery outside! His van is really cool too, a modded transporter.

One of the guys who works there has a silver MK5 GTI - if i get an exhaust fitted, it will be going to this place
55' Tornado Red 3-Door GTI, Manual, 17" Monza's, Totally original!

Not heard much about Millteks cracking  :undecided:

I can comfortably say (I spend too much time here) there has never been a thread in this MK5 section complaining about their Milltek. Had my FTB system on for not far off 2 years now and its still good as gold. Id be really surprised and disappointed if Milly have actually lowered their high standards.

Go to www.dubforce.net/forums and do a search for pipewerx and you'll see quite a few threads on it. Should certainly help you make a decision. I think the guys name is Ian Birch and as I said earlier, he's well known and has a good reputation around the dub world.

Just had a little search on dubforce myself and this name also came up in Newcastle, so might be another one to add to the mix and someone on dubforce said they were cheaper than Pipewerx. http://www.aas-exhausts.co.uk/

Cheers Alan / Gibby

thanks for that guys as I say with the rumoured Milltek cracking probs I'm steering clear (until they start making them back in the UK again!).. the APR is now on my radar - done a bit of poking around on tyresmoke etc... What about Scorpion exhausts? Or mongoose?
