Which exhaust system for Mk2 8V?
« on: 14 October 2006, 11:07 »
Backbox on my 8V Digi has started to blow, was thinking of replacing the system anyway so this gives me agood excuse to change the lot.
Which ones fit best and do any give more power?
Also the car is used for trackdays so must be within 98db.

Anyone got any recommendations?  :smiley:

Absolutely right. They are the best and unless you REALLY want a stainless system I would stick with standard.

Millteks are fantastic exhausts, look oem, are stainless and fit perfectly.
A bit pricey though.

ahh fair enough, personally I could afford to insure either an XR2i or my gti 8v..... chose the gti, never regretted it  :grin:

you should do some of those fiesta guides for the golfs, they were good!

Are those milltek systems very loud?
