Do you have Vag Com now to see if you have any fault codes?

I think you will have to wait till your engine and system if fully bedded in mate............perhaps till the engine has opened up

Yes, mine is resonated.

I'd heard a few comments about the non-resonated Milltek being boomy at motorway speeds and I wasn't really after much more noise anyway (only really wanted the power :wink:) and so plumped for the res one :nerd:

Makes sense i suppose, i wonder if the engines restricted somehow until 1k miles or something?

I dont think there are any restictions as such. I think it just needs time to open up. Its one of the reasons why new cars drink so much oil in the first few thousand miles.
