Miltek fitting the standard exhaust??

[MBCGTI]

Can anyone tell me whether a rear non resonated milltek back box for the standard exhaust or do you have to cut and weld it??

[Marshy]

If you wanted to change only your rear silencer for a Milltek one then you'd need to cut your original but would require a reducer as there will be at least 1/4 inch difference in pipe diameter.

Well I was hoping that wouldn't be the answer. There is a rear box for sale on e at but can't justify spending money if that's the case.

your original zorst is in two sections, a milltek catback (with reducer) will replace the rear section, i cannot see why you would cut this

miltek rear sections are in two parts to reflect silencer options

[Marshy]

The standard exhaust should be in 1 piece right to where it joins in the tunnel under the handbrake area.
The Milltek is usually a centre section then a rear section joining at the rear axle area.

This is the item thats for sale, I assume its quite a bit of work for not much increase??

[Marshy]

Anythings possible but you'd need some additional pipework made to make it fit.
Some exhaust places could probably make you a pipe and fit it for £50 or so.
You'd gain a bit more noise without the rear silencer but no power gains.

just buy mine and have done with it

[MBCGTI]

I want it but can't justify that amount at the moment as potentially going to be selling it due to buying a project house. I'm tempted to get it remapped and an exhaust before I do albeit will probably make me keep it.

that is just the end section of the race system (without silencers), you can see from here what you are missing
