Resonated and non-resonated are loud and quiet milltek in my mk4 is non-resonated the only difference is no centre box.. I have Jetex on my mk2 and it seems good enough not loud and not quiet

when i get round to it was looking at a full magnex system  :smiley: but only heard good things about Jetex and as Tech said Miltek are awesome, loved the non res on my mkiv 1.8T and esp on the R32 sounded like a machine gun going off  :grin:

i have one the fit of it is awesome and it sounds great. the only problem is mines a 2.5" and its a real slag to get it to sit right over the rear axle without knocking. needas a bit of adjustment which isnt easy when you're lying under the car, i need to get it on some ramps realy

Mines a Jetex and really like it...

But as RJ says they can be a pig to fit Propperly... I got one from a bloke who just could not get the bugger to fit for £25.00 - Bargain!!

I have a stainless Jetex on my 8v.

Quality of it is great and I have no issues of it knocking on the beam. However I think the sound of it depends a lot on personal preference. It's not hugely loud but it's definitely not quiet either. Motorway drone can get annoying but they sound great when opening the car up a little. My mind is still undecided as to whether it sounds a bit chav or not. It also hangs a little low in the bumper recess although this is probably down to it needing fettling.

Here's a few pics if it is any help

Now that I like a lot. How many boxes does that system have?

Yea that looks very smart, it has two boxes mid and backbox.

I have one on my mk2 also, looks very smart and sounds great, mine apparently spat out a flame a couple of days ago  :laugh:
