Just got my milltek....Few questions.
« on: 13 August 2012, 19:23 »
Just fitted a Milltek cat-back non-res with 4mo style tips. really impresses with build quality. I have no other mods and it pops and bangs quite alot on pull away and when changing gear. Should this be happening?

I have also just ordered a milltek downpipe and de-cat and piperX panel filter. Will this be too loud for a daily with the non-res?

While we are here (i know this next question has been covered a million times before but im on my phone

and being lazy) if i have the full turbo back, panel filter with smoothed air box and forge 007p will i need anything else to go for a stage 2 remap?

Thanks for any advice guys :)

Whats your engine code?
Youl need a decent fmic for stage 2 nowadays and a forge actuator to keep the waste gate closed with high boost.

How wide is the exhaust mate? Stage 2 would ideally need 2.75" or 3" from turbo back.

Engine is AGU. Was thinking FMIC wasn't sure if was needed tho. Think the milltek is 3" downpipe and 2.75" for the rest

Miltek is 2.5" cat back
A fmic would be best and Also a bigger maf, injectors and might as well get a k03s  :evil:

You will need a k03s end of. Stage one will push the little k03 to 200bhp that it!
You can throw what you like at it youl struggle to make anymore gain.

AGU with K03s, THS fmic, 3inch or 2.75inch turbo back exhuast an forge 007p your laughing.
Then once thats done go further with forge actuator, calibra injectors an VR6 MAF.
  :cool: Thats my current route atm.

Jamie, 2.75 or 3'' turbo back just isn't needed on a ko3S, 2.5'' pipe work doesn't become a restriction until over 300bhp really. I'm happily running 300bhp on my car with a 2.5'' milltek catback and it flows brilliantly.

Is there really much to be gained from doing the injectors and MAF at st2 keeping the ko3s? the turbo is near on maxxed out anyway with the stock injectors and MAF, so the gains can't be THAT big can they?
